What does the Anishinabek Nation’s Lands and Resources Department do? And how is critical minerals mining impacting Anishinabek Nation member communities?
In this episode, Lands and Resources Department Director Jason Laronde shares how this department supports Anishinabek Nation member First Nations to use and manage their lands and natural resources in ways that benefit them.
A global transition from fossil fuels to green energy sources depends on "critical minerals." With a lot of these minerals located in Indigenous territories, First Nations are under pressure.
Anishinabek Nation Mining Policy Analyst Jenny Lou Campbell, and Melvin Hardy, Deputy Grand Council Chief for the Northern Superior Region, describe how they’re supporting community responses to increased mining claims and pushing for changes to Ontario’s online mining exploration staking system, MLAS.
