  • Appendix D: Nunatsiavut Regional Impact Assessment
    Nunatsiavut Regional Impact Document ITK National Position Document on Canada-Wide Strategy for Management of Municipal Wastewater Effluent Draft January 29, 2008 Sikumiut Sikumiut Environmental Avatilgijingita Management Ltd. Kamajingit 1.0 Introduction and Overview Sikumiut Environmental Management Ltd. (Sikumiut) was retained by ITK to coordinate a review by the Nunatsiavut communities of the proposed Regulatory Framework for Wastewater Treatment. In compiling this response, information was collected through contact with the five Labrador Inuit communities which comprise Nunatsiavut, the portion of Labrador which was the subject of a recently settled Land Claims Agreement. Other sources of information included the Community Accounts website as well as the Municipal Plans for each community. The communities comprising Nunatsiavut (Figure 1) are all located on the North Coast of Labrador adjacent to salt water. There are no road connections. Each community is accessible by air, with twin otter aircraft providing regular service from Happy Valley- Goose Bay to gravel airstrips adjacent to each community. During open water season (July - October) a marine coastal service provides less expensive transport of passengers and goods. Snowmobile trails connect Rigolet, Makkovik and Postville with Upper Lake Melville and the town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay. The total population of the North Coast is approximately 2 500, ranging between approximately 200 (Rigolet and Postville) and 1,000 (Nain). The communities are dominantly (90 – 95%) Inuit. The economies of the communities are based on renewable resources generally (fishing, hunting, wood harvesting) however mining and quarrying have become important contributors in recent years. Tourism is at a modest level, but is expected to grow, especially for Nain with respect to the Torngat Mountains National Park Reserve.

    Canada: Newfoundland Submission to the Independent Review of the Newfoundland and Labrador Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act July 2014 Centre for Law and Democracy [email protected] +1 902 431-3688 www.law-democracy.org Canada: Submission to the Independent Review of the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act Introduction1 This is the Centre for Law and Democracy’s (CLD)2 Submission to the Independent Statutory Review Committee considering Newfoundland and Labrador’s Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act (ATIPPA). Section 74 of ATIPPA requires that a comprehensive review of the Act take place every five years. However, partly as a result of the controversy surrounding the passage of Bill 29, Tom Marshall, Newfoundland and Labrador’s Premier, announced an intention to bring forward the process shortly after taking office. The members of the Review Committee are Clyde Wells, a former Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador and Chief Justice of the province, Jennifer Stoddart, formerly Canada’s Privacy Commissioner, and Doug Letto, an accomplished journalist. When Bill 29 was first proposed, it attracted criticism from a number of sources, including CLD.3 We welcome Premier Marshall’s decision to move forward with the ATIPPA review and we are heartened by the decision to name prominent and respected individuals to the Review Committee. In announcing the committee members, the government noted a desire to ensure that Newfoundland and Labrador had “a strong statutory framework for access to information and protection of privacy, which when measured against international standards, will rank among the best.”4 That is a bold statement which we hope will be backed up by concrete action.
