The statement released on Friday was a response to comments from GNL Quebec president Tony Le Verger, who said last weekendhe wanted to continue negotiations with the Indigenous communities. Charles-Edouard Verreault, vice-chief of Mashteuiatsh First Nation and spokesman for the three Innu First Nations, said in an interview on Friday that GNL Quebec won t receive their consent. The Innu First Nations had previously expressed opposition to the multibillion-dollar plan in May, following the publication of Quebec s environmental review board report on the project. We listened, we did our own researches on the project, and following the conclusions of the BAPE report, it is clear that our position will remain the same, Verreault said. This project won t be happening on our territories.
