The objective of the east side planning process is to bring together local communities, First Nations, industry and environmental organizations to develop a vision for land and resource use in the area that respects both the value of the boreal forest and the needs of local communities.
On April 3, 2007, a landmark accord confirming a government-to-government relationship between the Wabanong Nakaygum Okimawin (WNO) First Nation Governments and the Government of Manitoba was signed, reinforcing the foundation for the most comprehensive traditional land use planning in this country.
