Dear Mr. Mccormick, Please find attached the United Chiefs and Councils of Mnidoo Mnising (UcCMM) written submission for the review of the Federal Environmental Assessment Processes. Meeting with the UCCMM Elders Council were held to seek their perspectives and knowledge in relation to the review. The written submission reflects an overview of what our elders have always told us. We have a sacred responsibility to Mother Earth to look after; fire, water, earth, and wind. We hope you take this message and reflect it in the changes to the Environmental Assessment Processes. We thank you for the opportunity to participant in this review.
Sincerely,
Chief Officer Hazel Recollet
P.O. Box 275, M’Chigeeng First Nation, Ontario POP 1G0
