Welcome

For generations, we have used the resources from the land and waters to sustain our way of life, culturally and economically. As Mi’gmaq, we have long relied upon the resources from our territory, the fish, animals, plants, trees, and medicines.

Our ancestors never gave up our rights to the territory. Because they never gave up, today we are able to access, manage and use our resources for the collective benefit of our community.

Our ways of managing, using and taking care of our territory, however, were disrupted and changed with the arrival of Europeans to our land. For many years, our rights to our territory were denied. However, we continued to use our resources to support the wellbeing of our families; we hunted, fished, gathered medicines, firewood, and timber for cultural, as well as for economic purposes.

Today, the Natural Resource Directorate is comprised of two main sectors, Fisheries and Forestry. The objectives for the Natural Resources Directorate are to access, use and manage the resources from our territory, land and water, in a sustainable, viable and culturally relevant manner. The profits generated from Natural Resources’ operations help support Listuguj’s unfunded programs and provide enhanced service.

Fisheries

LMG has a viable commercial fishery operation, which supports our local economy and contributes to the cultural and social well being of our community.

Forestry

LMG is actively engaged in the commercial forestry sector. Our forestry operation provides employment opportunities, in Listuguj and in our region to LMG directly and to the independent loggers.

In addition to harvesting wood, is also working in developing the forest. This is done by 2 methods. The first is planting areas that have been logged and where commercial trees are not growing. The second is brush cutting where we space young commercial trees (10-15 years old) allowing the remaining trees to grow faster and of better quality. The LMG provided some firewood to the community.
