FOR Makes Submission to the NAFTA Commission on Environmental Cooperation

The Friends of the Oldman River

Media Release

September 7, 2004

Today the Friends of the Oldman River (FOR) are making another Article 14 Submission to the Commission on Environmental Cooperation (CEC) which was established as part of the North American Agreement on Free Trade (NAFTA).

DFO uses letters of advice to tell proponents what they can do to avoid or mitigate damage to fish habitat. The Fisheries Act makes no provision for issuing letters of advice. And the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is not doing environmental assessments as required by CEAA before issuing the letters of advice. Read More

I believe Alberta Health's recommendation is scientifically questionable and is not in the public interest.

Apparently Albera Health has also told the EUB that the EUB must accept Alberta Health's recommendation. Read More
