Beaver First Nation is the only two Danezaa bands in Alberta (the other being the Horse Lake First Nation). The band controls two reserves, Boyer 164 and Child Lake 164A, both near Fort Vermillion in beautiful northern Peace Country. Beaver has a small registered population of approximately 900 community members, many of whom live away from the community.

The Nation is often involved in negotiations with companies involved in Forestry and Oil and Gas projects in the region.

  • 20. Aboriginal Rights and Interests Effects
    20. ASSESSMENT OF ABORIGINAL AND TREATY RIGHTS AND RELATED INTERESTS 20.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter assesses potential adverse effects on Aboriginal and Treaty rights and related interests which may arise from the Project during construction, operations, decommissioning/reclamation, and post-closure. Underground mining activities have the potential to adversely affect Aboriginal and Treaty rights by interfering with Aboriginal groups’ ability to engage in practices, customs, and traditions that are integral to their distinctive cultures, and/or by interfering with the exercise of rights expressly recognized in a treaty. Interference with Aboriginal and Treaty rights is generally indirect, resulting from changes to environmental conditions that are necessary for the continued exercise of Aboriginal and Treaty rights. The assessment is based on information derived from the Proponent’s engagement with potentially- affected Aboriginal groups, environmental assessments carried out elsewhere in the Application/EIS, and the review of secondary data. Wherever possible, the assessment addresses potential effects on Aboriginal and treaty rights and related interests as understood from the perspective of the Aboriginal groups in question. Baseline reports informing this assessment are appended to the Application/EIS and include: Ethnographic Overview and Traditional Knowledge and Use Desk-Based Research Report (Appendix 17-A) and Saulteau First Nations Knowledge and Use Study for HD Mining Murray River Coal Project (Appendix 17-B). 20.2 REGULATORY AND POLICY FRAMEWORK The Crown has a legal duty to consult with and, where appropriate, accommodate Aboriginal interests when it contemplates a conduct that might adversely impact the potential or established Aboriginal or Treaty right. The Crown delegated procedural aspects of this duty, with respect to the Project, to the Proponent through the Section 11 Order and EIS Guidelines.

  • Horse Lake First Nation
    Appendix A.12 – Horse Lake First Nation I – Background information Horse Lake First Nation (Horse Lake) is part of the Athapaskan Dane-zaa or “Beaver” peoples, who are generally accepted to have been living in portions of northern and central Alberta from the pre-contact period until current times. The Dane-zaa means "those who live among the beaver“. Horse Lake states that their traditional territory is situated in present-day northwestern Alberta and northeastern British Columbia (BC). This assertion includes a portion of central Alberta from roughly Hinton to the BC border. They assert that from an ancient past they have utilized and inhabited the lands, waters and resources within this area for numerous different purposes, including hunting, fishing, trapping, and the exercise of cultural and traditional modes of life. The Horse Lake people continue to speak their traditional language, also called Dane-zaa. Horse Lake (at that time, the Beaver Band at Dunvegan) adhered to Treaty Eight on July 6, 1899, and its first reserves were allotted after 1906. There was much re-arranging of reserve land allotment in subsequent years and the final arrangements were not made until 1959. They are a member of the Western Cree Tribal Council along with Duncan’s First Nation and Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation. Horse Lake is also a member of the Treaty 8 First Nations of Alberta. Historically, the Crown has referred to Horse Lake people by various names, including the “Beaver Indians of Dunvegan”, the “Beavers of Grande Prairie”, and the “Dunvegan Band”. Currently Horse Lake holds two reserves: Clear Hills 152C and Horse Lakes 152B.
