Their Territory spans an area between the White River to the north, and the Slims River to the south; and from the St. Elias Mountains to the west, to the Ruby Ranges to the east. We have seen many changes on the land and in our community - from the establishment of the Alaska Highway, to the inception of the Kluane First Nation Government; all the while, we remain present with the land. Today, we are witnessing changes in our climate that are reflected on the land, and so we must take action to address the needs of our future generations.

The provision of high quality and affordable communications links within the Yukon and between the Yukon and other reg ions is essential if we are to survive in an information-based society. The Government has responded to Yukoners demands for better communi­ cations services by developing a communications policy specifically tailored to the needs of the territory. We have a rather special situation here in the Yukon where great distances exist between sparsely populated areas making distance com­ munications one of our greatest chall enges. We have therefore made accessibility, reliability and affordability the by-words of our policy. We heard from many Yukoners throughout the policy development process. The results clearly indicate that Yukoners want their government to play a more active ro le in communications matters. A major overriding concern is the need for a strong, effective voice in federal communications policy-making and regulatory forums. This is not surprising when you realize that it is these forums that decide the costs for and level of communications services in the Yukon. Another major concern was the inequity in service levels throughout the ter­ ritory, particularly in respect to the CBC television and radio signals. Under the new policy, the Government will replace the mountaintop rebroadcast television trans­ lator equipment with satellite receive antenna.

New institutions of public government with responsibilities for land use planning and resources management are being created pursuant to land claim settlements. Resource management boards have, or will assume from DIAND, many of its historical regulatory responsibilities. However, in the interim, DIAND is still responsible for managing federal lands in a way that complements the activities of the new institutions and governments. This includes, as a specific component of DIAND’s sustainable development strategy, continuing to develop a program for the effective management of granular resources.
