Caribou engagement sessions set for next week
PRINCE GEORGE— Members of the public are invited to attend community engagement sessions to provide their feedback on two draft agreements to conserve southern mountain caribou populations, starting April 8.
The two draft agreements have been developed under Section 11 of the Federal Species at Risk Act. A draft Section 11 Agreement between British Columbia and Canada sets a framework for co-operation between the two governments to recover southern mountain caribou.
Staff from the provincial and federal governments will share information about the draft agreements and will be available to answer questions. Staff from the Saulteau and West Moberly First Nations will attend the sessions in Prince George and Mackenzie.
Feedback collected from the sessions will help inform final agreements. The community engagement sessions will all take place from 5:30 p.m.- 9:30 p.m. on the following days:
