  • Legitimacy on Stage: Discourse and Knowledge in Environmental Review Processes in Northern Canada
    Thea Luig: Legitimacy on stage: Discourse and knowledge in environmental review processes in Northern Canada Legitimacy on stage: Discourse and knowledge in environmental review processes in Northern Canada Thea Luig University of Alberta, [email protected] Abstract Based on ethnographic fieldwork, this paper investigates the interplay of discourse and knowledge within a context of structural power during public hearings for the environmental review of a proposed pipeline project in Canada. Despite much improved provision for Aboriginal participation in political and economic decision-making, negotiations between the Canadian government and northern Aboriginal people are often described as frustrating and unsatisfying by individuals involved in them. Analyzing formal procedures of the hearing process as well as interview data, I argue that legal adaptations and participatory processes are wrapped in a discourse conforming with international demands to respect Indigenous rights, but, in fact, are orchestrated in a way that favours the alliance of the state, corporations, and administrative professionals, thus ruling out effective influence on the part of local Indigenous people. Northern Aboriginal groups respond to these challenges by utilising discourses from international human rights and environmental movements as a tool to legitimise land-claim and self-governance demands, thereby attempting to trans- form articulations of identity into political and economic capital. As I will show, although the public discourse of the different agents involved is framed in symbolism that suggests mutual understanding and aims to generate support from the wider public, modes of kno- wledge production anchored in science/technology versus primary experience continue to de-legitimise one another, therefore precluding an efficient dialogue.

    Frobisher Inn & Explorer Hotel www.nunastar.com 02 Experience the warmth of Canada’s arctic hotels COMPANY FOCUS CB THE FROBISHER INN AND EXPLORER HotEL Experience the warmth of Canada’s arctic hotels 4 HOSPITALITY The Frobisher Inn and Explorer Hotel A lot of times when people think about the Arctic, visions of polar bears, igloos and snow-covered barren land ensue. Those images aren’t necessarily inaccurate, but they don’t represent all that goes on in the Great White North. The Arctic is Canada’s last frontier and, truth be told, things are heating up. Just ask Rainer Launhardt, Vice President of Hotels for Nunastar Properties. “WHEN NunaVut BEcamE the newest Canadian territory in 1999, there was a lot of activity and construction in Iqaluit,” says Launhardt. “The government was establishing itself, the city needed infrastructure and a lot of people were visiting for different reasons. More than 10 years later, people are still coming and going, and the city of Iqaluit is expanding every year.” The influx of visitors in the last decade has created a need for more hospitality. And that’s where The Frobisher Inn comes into play, because visiting the north doesn’t mean roughing it. Located at the centre of Nunavut’s capital city, The Frobisher Inn is the largest hotel in the eastern Arctic—which was recently expanded to house 95 rooms. With unparalleled full-service, the Frobisher Inn is the hotel destination in one of Canada’s fastest growing cities. HOSPITALITY The Frobisher Inn and Explorer Hotel 6 HOSPITALITY The Frobisher Inn and Explorer Hotel Named after British explorer Sir Martin Fro- “This is a hotel with a flavour of the north,” says bisher, who landed on Baffin Island in search of Launhardt.
