New Listuguj Alerts App

/in

Notice to the community,

For those of you who use the app, “LMG Waste” for your garbage, recycling and compost reminders in the community, you may have noticed a few changes to the app as of late.

The Listuguj Mi’gmaq Government’s Capital and Infrastructure Directorate and Communications Department have revamped this app and it is now called, “Listuguj Alerts” which will allow community members to receive urgent alerts and notifications directly onto their phones.

In the near future, we will provide community members with instructions on how to download the app, and what alerts and notifications they can expect to receive going forward.

Thank you.

Striped Bass Survey

/in

Attention Community Members!

In recent years, community fishers have reported a substantial increase in Ji’gaw (striped bass) within the Restigouche River. This situation has sparked discussions of concerns and potential opportunity within the community.

The Listuguj Mi’gmaq Government (LMG) and the Natural Resources Directorate​ (N​RD) are exploring options on how Listuguj should approach this increase, including the development of a Ji’gaw harvesting plan under our community jurisdiction.

The survey found through the link below is part of a series of community discussions and engagement. Our goal is to gather community perspectives and explore what should be included in the development of the harvesting plan.
