The UNDRIP Act of 2021 states that there must be Free Prior and Informed Consent for First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Many areas are Treaty lands or title land of the Indigenous Peoples.

Continued disregard and carelessness in protecting species, insects, pollinators, plants, waterways, etc. will further degrade the lands and lead to lack of clean drinking water for all and food insecurities.
