Appendix 1 What We Heard from Policy Communities
Appendix 1 What we heard from policy communities Background In the Terms of Reference issued by the Minister of Conservation on September 1 2011, the Clean Environment Commission was asked to “hear evidence from Manitobans regarding the impacts of Lake Winnipeg regulation since the project was put into commercial use by Manitoba Hydro on August 1, 1976.” Over the period of approximately one month (January 12, 2015 to February 18, 2015), the Clean Environment Commission (CEC) attended 17 communities surrounding Lake Winnipeg.1 They also held two evening public sessions in Winnipeg and received a number of written submissions from the public.2 The CEC heard from many residents and users around the Lake including: cottage owners, permanent residents, Indigenous people, agricultural farmers, commercial and subsistence fishermen, and people and organizations from the tourism and recreation industry. There is disagreement in terms of the implications of Lake Winnipeg Regulation on Lake Winnipeg. Manitoba Hydro argues that its effects are generally either positive, benign or insignificant. Others take the position that LWR in conjunction with other Hydro activities has adverse and ongoing effect on the Lake. Among the prominent concerns are: • Lack of confidence in Manitoba Hydro, the Province and the CEC Hearing process on LWR • Lack of transparency of Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba Government operations of LWR • Lack of meaningful ongoing engagement • Sense of exclusion by upstream, downstream and Indigenous people • A sense that Manitoba hydro

Keeyask Generation Project
Keeyask Generation Project Summary of Round Three of the Public Involvement Program The following sections describe Public Involvement Program (PIP) Round Three activities focused on engagement of potentially affected and interested Aboriginal and other communities and organizations beyond the Keeyask Cree Nations (KCNs). This engagement process has been directed by the 2007 Public Involvement Plan (Appendix 1A of the Public Involvement Supporting Volume of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)) approved by the Partnership and used as the basis for the involvement process implemented for the Keeyask Generation Project (the Project). PIP Round Three communication products and events are described below. In addition, a summary of the key perspectives and themes identified through PIP Round Three is provided. Through established processes, Manitoba Hydro meets with the Cross Lake First Nation (Pimicikamak Cree Nation), the Manitoba Metis Federation and Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation. In recognition of these on‐going processes, the way in which Manitoba Hydro, on behalf of the Partnership, engaged with Cross Lake First Nation (Pimicikamak Cree Nation), the Manitoba Metis Federation and Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation with respect to PIP Round Three differed from the other peoples, communities and groups who were invited to participate in PIP Round Three.

1 Observations to the Third Report of the Standing
Observations to the third report of the Standing Senate Committee on Aboriginal Peoples (Bill C-15) A. Consultation and Engagement on Bill C-15 During previous legislative studies, your committee heard concerns from witnesses about the adequacy and thoroughness of federal consultation processes. Bill C-15 is no exception, with concerns raised by Treaty Rights Holders, certain youth and women’s organizations and some representatives from the resource sector. At the same time, many others reported that they were consulted and that there was widespread support for the Bill. Your committee observes that the federal government does not appear to have applied the principles of free, prior, and informed consent to the consultation process on Bill C- 15. Your committee notes that the testimony from witnesses related to Bill C-15 highlights a lack of a clear, inclusive, and defined process for co-developing legislation at the national level. The committee recognizes that many Indigenous concerns around consultation are ultimately rooted in a distrust of the federal government, as it has not always lived up to its promises. This distrust is important to understand as the legislative process in the past has been used to disenfranchise, colonize and oppress Indigenous peoples. Going forward, the committee underscores the need for consultation to be clear, substantial and understandable. All Rights Holders, including Treaty Rights Holders and interested Indigenous communities must have the opportunity to be involved from the start. The committee believes that Indigenous leadership is critical to the process of negotiating and defining what consultation looks like. An intersectional approach is of utmost importance; Indigenous economic development organizations should also be involved.
