Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) said that they have 香蕉视频直播渋ncorporated the feedback香蕉视频直播 previously provided by the Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations in response to their accusation of 香蕉视频直播渄iscrimination香蕉视频直播 yesterday.

Five Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations accused the federal government and DFO of discriminatory fishery practices favouring recreational fishers over their communities and not upholding the Nations香蕉视频直播 court-won aboriginal right to chinook salmon.

In an email, DFO spokesperson Athina Vazeos told Black Press that since March 2019, the five Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations have been fishing under a multi-species fishery management plan in their traditional territories for their rights-based sale fishery.

The 2020/21 management plan is the second multi-species fishery management plan developed by DFO since the 2018 Court Order interpreted the Five Nations香蕉视频直播 Aboriginal rights.

香蕉视频直播淭his plan outlines fishing opportunities that DFO intends to provide to the five Nations for the 2020/21 season to implement the five Nations香蕉视频直播 aboriginal rights to harvest salmon, groundfish, crab, prawn, and gooseneck barnacle in a right-based multi-species sale fishery,香蕉视频直播 said DFO in the statement.

The DFO also said feedback provided by the five Nations during consultations was considered and incorporated into the 2020/21 fishery management plan by DFO where possible. It also said it continues to consult with the five Nations on those aspects of the fishery management plan that they disagree with and is engaging in broader negotiations with them at the reconciliation table.

When asked about this response given by the DFO, the spokesperson for the five Nations on this matter and lead negotiator for Ahousaht First Nation, Wickanninish (Clifford Atleo), told Black Press that 香蕉视频直播渋t香蕉视频直播檚 a sham.香蕉视频直播
