Mi'kmaw chiefs reject $260M fisheries offer, saying it threatens their treaty rights.
The Mi'kmaw chiefs in Nova Scotia have rejected a federal government offer of $260 million to support indigenous access to fisheries, stating it resembles past rejected proposals and threatens treaty rights.
They argue the Fisheries Department's plan forces Mi'kmaq fishers into a license-based system, undermining their right to a moderate livelihood from fishing.
The chiefs fear this would jeopardize their community-based harvest plans.
