- Abstract
Members of the Fort Albany First Nation, an Indigenous community in the far north of Ontario, Canada, recently started work on a community- based land use plan for their traditional territories. Through community partnership research with Fort Albany, we explored substantive and procedural values in support of community-based planning. Results indicate that the community desires a plan that works toward cultural preservation and empowerment through conservation of resources that support subsistence activities, and provides community benefits from future development. Implications are discussed in the context of the currently evolving Province of Ontario's far north land use planning process.
