Alanna Syliboy @netukulimk shares considerations for engaging in science: how is the research benefitting the community, the species, and the water? It’s important to be mindful, to not overwork communities and organizations, and to respect knowledge holders and data sovereignty.

[DFO Maritimes @DFO_MAR]

@NSAgriculture @Netukulimk @MikmaqRights We ask ATV riders to avoid the area to allow the soil to stabilize.

[DFO Maritimes @DFO_MAR]

We continue to work in partnership with the Mi’kmaw Conservation Group (@Netukulimk), the commercial fishery and @AcadiaU to monitor fish passage at the Windsor causeway.

[DFO Maritimes @DFO_MAR]

@NSAgriculture @Netukulimk @MikmaqRights The area was exposed after the lowering of the reservoir which has improved fish passage through the existing tidal gates.

[DFO Maritimes @DFO_MAR]

Last week DFO staff were in Windsor #NS with @NSAgriculture and The Confederacy of Mainland Mi’kmaq (@Netukulimk) to collaboratively plant seeds provided by KMKNO (@MikmaqRights) in the Avon River area to stabilize the soil and help reduce dust.
