"A new feature for CCCR2026 is the inclusion of #FirstNations, #Inuit, and #Métis place-based case stories that document Indigenous science, observations, and perspectives on the implications of climate change (section RS.3, Box RS.1). These case stories provide complementary knowledge to the lines of evidence drawn from Western science that are formally assessed in this report. Chapter 1, section 1.3.5, explains some of the opportunities and challenges encountered during the CCCR2026 assessment process when engaging ethically and equitably with Indigenous experts and Indigenous science."

Even though I posted a kind of cheesy reaction to it, this is an interesting post by @Tod Maffin 🇨🇦.
As a Dutchman I had never heard of the Tłı̨chǫ Agreement, but I have visited Canada.
I felt respect for their First Nations, more than what I felt in ...
View article View summary I felt respect for their First Nations, more than what I felt in the US, and so this was probably an agreement between those always-friendly Canadians and those-who-already-lived-there.

Interesting, and although I said something about not investigating further, I did 😃
For all the rest of you who also didn't immediately recognize the letters NWT: that's North West Territories.
Not sure if "giving power" should be "restoring power" though, Tod 😇
