Many changes occurred to British Columbia’s environmental assessment (EA) process in 2018 that matter to Indigenous Nations. These changes offer greater opportunities within the EA process for Indigenous Nations to be better informed for the purposes of Indigenous decision-making related to proposed major projects. Gaining a solid understanding of the new process is essential for BC Indigenous Nations to take advantage of these new opportunities. The FNMPC’s Primer for Indigenous Involvement in the BC Environmental Assessment Process (the primer) is intended to provide BC Indigenous Nations with an introductory roadmap to the new BC EA process. It aims to provide a target summary of “what’s most important” about the new legislation for Indigenous Nations, and how to maximize a Nation;s effectiveness in the EA process. Through effective involvement in the new BC EA process Nations can ensure that their views and concerns related to proposed major projects are considered and incorporated into project-related decisions. In this manner, Indigenous Nations can better protect and advance thier rights and interests.
