  • Proposed Tłı̨chǫ All-Season Road Executive Summary March 2016
    Proposed Tłı̨chǫ All-season Road Executive Summary March 2016 Proposed Tłı̨ chǫ All-season Road Project Description Report March 2016 Department of Transportation i Proposed Tłı̨chǫ All-season Road Executive Summary March 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This project description report (PDR) has been written to accompany the Type A Land Use Permit and Type B Water Licence applications to the Wekʼèezhìı Land and Water Board (WLWB) for development of the proposed T ł ı̨ c h ǫ All-season Road (TASR). These applications are being submitted by the Department of Transportation of the Government of the Northwest Territories (DOT – GNWT). The T ł ı̨ c h ǫ Government supports these applications. This project has been identified as a GNWT commitment under the Proposed Mandate of the Government of the Northwest Territories 2016-2019 (GNWT 2016). Over the years, DOT and T ł ı̨ c h ǫ Government have contemplated the possibility of improved transportation to the Wekʼèezhìı area. In 2011, both governments became reengaged under the T ł ı̨ c h ǫ Roads Steering Committee (TRSC) in order to assess the feasibility, desirability and implications of realigning the T ł ı̨ c h ǫ Winter Road System to provide improved community access. As of May 2013, the vision of the TRSC has been to pursue development of an all-season road. The route would end at the boundary of the community government of Whatì and predominantly follow ‘Old Airport Road,’ an existing overland alignment that was utilized up until the late 1980s as an overland winter road. The proposed TASR is defined as an all-season road approximately 94 km in length and 60 m in width with a cleared driving surface of approximately 8.5 m in width in order to accommodate a two lane gravel road with culverts and/or double lane bridges over water crossings as necessary.

  • Movements and Distribution of the Bathurst and Ahiak Barren-Ground
    Movements and distribution of the Bathurst and Ahiak barren-ground caribou herds 2005 Annual Report Submitted to West Kitikmeot Slave Study Society Submitted By Project Leader Anne Gunn Project Team Adrian D’Hont, Judy Williams Organisation Wildlife Division, Environment and Natural Resources, Government of the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife. 2 Summary: Objectives for 2005 included deploying 10 collars on cows from the Bathurst caribou herd and 10 collars on cows from the Ahiak caribou herd. A reconnaissance survey over the winter range of the Bathurst herd found heavy concentrations of caribou at Lac Grandin southeast to Rae Lakes and then low densities of caribou until east of Yellowknife. Of the 10 collars put on the Bathurst range, three died between April and June and the remaining seven calved on the Bathurst calving ground. Flights over the Ahiak winter range resulted in no caribou seen east of Contwoyto, low concentrations on the Back River and high concentrations east of Artillery Lake and in the Nonacho Lake area. Five collars were deployed east of Artillery Lake and five in the Nonacho Lake area. Of the five collars deployed in the Nonacho Lake area, two caribou migrated to the Bathurst calving ground. The remaining eight collars calved on the Ahiak calving ground. In 2005, in addition to addressing the objectives of the movement and distribution study for individual herds we successfully collared 12 cows from the Bathurst herd and 8 from the Ahiak herd. We also documented overlap in the winter distribution of Ahiak and Bathurst caribou at Nonacho Lake. Acknowledgements: West Kitikmeot Slave Study Society funded the study and we thank the Board for their continued support.

  • Native Subsistence Fisheries: a Synthesis of Harvest Studies in Canada FIKRET BERKES’
    ARCTIC VOL. 43, NO. 1 (MARCH 1990) P. 35-42 Native Subsistence Fisheries: A Synthesis of Harvest Studies in Canada FIKRET BERKES’ (Received 20 January 1989; accepted in revised form 15 May 1989) ABSTRACT. Subsistencefisheries,asdistinct from commercialand recreational, existthroughout much of theCanadianNorth and satisfy local needs for fishprotein. These fisherieshave been investigated quantitatively only since the 1970s. Many ofthese studies are in the ”greyliterature”; methods of study andreporting are not standardized, and interpretation of data is often problematic. Nevertheless, some generalizations can be offered from a preliminary survey of harvest study data from 93communities and from 10 regional studies representing Labrador, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, British Columbiaand the Northwest Territories. Thedata indicate a wide range of harvest values,clustering at about 60 kg of whole fish per capita per year. If these data are representative,there is a significant subsistence fishery sectorimportant for the local economiesof hundreds of communities. Mostof these fisheries are not beingreported in fishery statistics,nor are they being monitoredand assessed. Key words: subsistence, fisheries,native people, native harvest surveys, resource management policy, Co-management, Arctic, Subarctic RÉSUMÉ.La pêche de subsistance, par oppositionà la pêche commercialeou sportive, existe dans presque tout le Grand Nord canadien et satisfait aux besoinsde la population locale en protéines de poisson. Cette pêchen’a été étudiée de façon quantitative que depuis de la dittérature grise,; les méthodes d’étude etde rapport ne sont pas standardisées et l’interprétation des données est souvent problématique. On peut cependant présenter certaines généralisations à partir dune étude préliminaire des données sur les prises effectuées dans 93 communautés et à partir de 10 études régionales représentant le Labrador, leQuébec, l’Ontario, le Manitoba, la Saskatchewan, la Colombie-Britannique et les Territoiresdu Nord-Ouest.

Details of places in the North Arm for which Elders gave information is proprietary and while it will form a useful part of YKDFN’s participation in future management of the Dinàgà Wek'èhodì Protected Area it is not included in this pubic report. Details of the spatial extent of known cultural assets, along with additional historical information, will be gathered through fieldwork planned for the summer of 2018. Fieldwork is necessary to complete this project but will only happen if funding is made available. 2 Introduction THe NortH Arm of Great Slave Lake, including tHe far northwest portion, the proposed Dinàgà Wek'èHodì Protected Area, is a very important place for us. We are the Yellowknives Dene whose occupation and use of tHis entire area dates back many, many generations, to a time long before the Tłı̨chǫ came to tHis area. We are descendants of Tetsǫt’ı́ né (“copper or metal people”), the indigenous CHipewyan-related people living around Great Slave Lake and referred to in exploration and fur trade records as Copper Indians, Yellow-knife Indians, Red-Knife Indians, Couteaux Jaunes, etc.
