Photo by Michael Bramadat-Willcock The Lac La Ronge Indian Band (LLRIB) Chief and Council announced its opposition to proposed peat moss harvesting on its traditional territory Tuesday after traditional land users in the area wrote in with concerns that the project would impact their way of life. Quebec-based company Lambert Peat Moss Inc. raised the ire of some La Ronge area residents when it went public with a proposal to extract peat moss from four locations near the Lac La Ronge provincial park.

LLRIB opposed to local peat moss development

LLRIB opposed to local peat moss development The Lac La Ronge Indian Band said it is opposed to the Lambert Peat Harvest Project within the First Nation’s traditional territory. The Band outlined many concerns following a project review by a traditional lands and resources advisory committee. “Lambert’s proposed site clearing would include the removal of all trees, brush, stumps, or other obstacles laying within the development areas,” said Chief and Council. Drainage of the harvest site would take years to complete. There is concern the drainage would negatively impact fish and wildlife habitat. “The drainage of wetlands will have a harmful impact to fish and wildlife habitat including Woodland Caribou,” explained the First Nation. “The proposed roads and potential harvest locations will interfere with the traditional uses of land resources such as the gathering of food and plants used for medicinal purposes.”
