Members of the public are invited to attend the community engagement session, happening Wednesday, April 3 from
5:30 pm to 9:30 pm at the Trend Mountain Hotel and Conference Centre to provide feedback on two draft agreements to conserve southern mountain caribou populations.
The two draft agreements have been developed under section 11 of the federal Species at Risk Act. A draft partnership agreement between B.C., Canada, West Moberly and Saulteau First Nations proposes specific habitat protection and restoration measures to recover the central group herds of southern mountain caribou.
A draft section 11 agreement between B.C. and Canada sets a framework for co-operation between the two governments to recover southern mountain caribou.
Staff from all parties will share information about the draft agreements and will be available to answer questions.
Feedback collected from these sessions will help inform the final agreements.
