Objectif(s): to investigate the prevalence of fish abnormalities in the Mackenzie Valley on a geographic, historic and seasonal basis; to assess the changes that these abnormalities are having on the traditional use of fish
Description du projet: The Dene Nation asked the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs to conduct a survey about fish caught in the Mackenzie Valley. Lutra Assoc. will be training someone in each community to ask questions like this: How many fish are not normal and why? Where are these caught? How much fish are people eating? Is this changing because more abnormal fish are being caught? What would happen if people could not eat fish?
