First Nation’s experts and leaders say Yukon government failed to spot warning signs
As more than a hundred people watched, either online or in person, a panel of officials and experts with the First Nation of Na-Cho Nyäk Dun (FNNND) discussed the ongoing impacts of the Eagle Mine failure and the lack of regulatory oversight in the lead up to the disaster.
The event ran parallel to the Geoscience Forum across the street at the Kwanlin Dün Centre, where government officials, investors and mine proponents gather every year to discuss the industry. A number of the projects on the agenda take place on FNNND traditional territory.
