Protecting the Peel Watershed: Indigenous rights, conservation and the law<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are invited to attend a unique panel discussion at the MacOdrum Library on Thursday, March 23 at 3:00 p.m<\/a>. Renowned Indigenous rights lawyer, Thomas R. Berger, will be joined by First Nations and environmental leaders who have been part of the legal battle to protect the Peel Watershed, a vast and unspoiled northern wilderness in the Yukon Territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Nations and environmental groups have been resisting the Yukon Government\u2019s efforts to industrialize the region and have taken their case \u2013 being presented by Thomas Berger \u2013 to the Supreme Court of Canada on March 22. The Supreme Court ruling will require a landmark interpretation of the Yukon\u2019s modern-day treaties that could have impacts for land use planning across the entire country. The panellists will share insights from this milestone case in which conservation and reconciliation are at the forefront. PLEASE RSVP HERE\u2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you are in the library, please visit Thunder in Our Voices, an interactive exhibit about the 1970s Berger Inquiry into the Construction of a Pipeline in the Mackenzie Valley. Forty years after Justice Berger\u2019s report was published, you can watch interviews with the original Dene, Inuvialuit and corporate witnesses before the Inquiry, recorded then and now. The exhibit will be open March 18 to 25. Admission is free to the exhibit and all events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
