  • Overview of Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation
    Annex 9 B180304 OVERVIEW OF CANADA MORTGAGE AND HOUSING CORPORATION INITIATIVES FOR THE INFORMATION OF THE COMMISSIONERS FOR THE NATIONAL INQUIRY INTO MISSING AND MURDERED INDIGENOUS WOMEN AND GIRLS Introduction As Canada’s authority on housing for over 70 years, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has been working to help Canadians meet their housing needs and improve their quality of life. We want every Canadian to live somewhere that feels like home. We know that safe, stable and affordable housing plays a key role in a whole range of socio-economic outcomes. We also know that the lack of such housing can have negative impacts on families and communities. CMHC is pleased to share its story with the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (the Inquiry) and we will focus on the support provided directly to Indigenous peoples, primarily First Nations people living on reserve, and highlight where we are working to make a difference in the lives of women and girls.1 In many of these initiatives, CMHC works closely with Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC). CMHC Support for Indigenous Peoples CMHC’s direct support to Indigenous peoples began in the early 1970s when CMHC introduced the Winter Warmth Assistance Program and the Rural and Native Housing Program. As predecessors to the current Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program (RRAP) and the On-Reserve Non-Profit Rental Housing Program (Section 95),2 these programs provided funding assistance to renovate and construct homes for individuals in rural and northern areas.

    Pasquia Bog Peat Harvest Project Premier Horticulture Ltd. Environmental Impact Assessment Submittted to: Saskatcchewan Ministry of Environment – Environmental Assessment Branch June 2012 PASQUIA BOG PEAT HARVEST PROJECT PREMIER HORTICULTURE LTD. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Executive Summary PROJECT OVERVIEW Premier Horticulture Ltd. (Premier Sask Inc.) (Premier) is proposing to harvest a 1,880 ha area of peat over 80 years, divided into 15 phases (herein referred to as Pasquia Bogs). The Pasquia Bogs are situated within Townships 49 and 50, Ranges 30 and 31, West of Principal Meridian and located approximately 55 km northeast of Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan and approximately 22 km east of Highway 9. The Pasquia Bogs consist of five major bogs and two smaller bog clusters. This Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) focuses on the first 20 to 30 years of development (Phase 1 to 4), which consists of a 526 ha area of peat bog for harvesting and a 53.2 ha area of peat bog to use as a donor site (Site Study Area (SSA)). Phase 1 to 4 is divided into 11 sections to be harvested. A 21.6 km public, year-round access road was constructed in 2010/2011 from Highway 9 to approximately 60 m west of the Pasquia River, to enable peat from the Pasquia Bog to be transported to the Carrot River Processing and Bagging Plant. The access road underwent its own environmental approval with the Ministry of Environment (MOE) and therefore is not considered a project activity within this EIS. PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT The Saskatchewan operation by Premier is well-known throughout the industry for the quality of its peat moss.
