A #pilot #forestry project that puts some of #NovaScotia 's #forest lands in the care of #Mikmaw communities could be extended.
Over the last 4 yrs, the #confederacy of Mainland #Mikmaq , the #Unamaki Institute of #NaturalResources & the #KwilmukwMawklusaqn, also known as the #MikmaqRightsInitiative - managed 30,000 hectares of #CrownLand using Mi'kmaw foresty practices.
