First Nations of the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Appeal Monitoring Suspension

Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, Fort McKay First Nation, and Mikisew Cree First Nation were not consulted on decisions that clearly impact AER’s ability to identify and mitigate these impacts in traditional territories.
