Overview
Increasingly, federal environmental guidelines require developers to consider the \"traditional knowledge\" of aboriginal people in assessing the impact of proposed projects on northern environments, economies, and societies. However, several factors have limited the contributions of traditional knowledge to environmental impact assessment (EIA) in the North, including confusion over the meaning of this term, who \"owns\" this knowledge, and its role in EIA. The term \"indigenous knowledge,\" which comprises traditional and nontraditional, ecological and nonecological knowledge, is proposed as an alternative that should allow aboriginal people, and the full scope of their knowledge, to assume integral roles in EIA. Experience gained in attempting to give aboriginal people a voice and an assessment role in the diamond mine proposed by Diamonds Inc. at Lac de Gras in the Northwest Territories has led to the development of a multiphased, holistic approach to involving aboriginal people and their knowledge in EIA. Because of their in-depth knowledge of the land, aboriginal people have a particularly important role to play in environmental monitoring and distinguishing project-related changes from natural changes in the environment. However, the strengths of traditional and Western scientific knowledge in EIA will not be realized until both are recognized as parts of a larger worldview that influences how people perceive and define reality. /// De plus en plus, les lignes directrices environnementales du gouvernement fédéral exigent des responsables de projets de développement qu'ils tiennent compte du «savoir traditionnel» des peuples autochtones en évaluant les incidences des projets à l'étude sur les milieux, les économies et les sociétés nordiques. Toutefois, plusieurs facteurs ont limité la contribution du savoir traditionnel à l'évaluation des incidences environnementales (EIE) dans le Grand Nord, y compris l'ambiguïté entourant le sens de cette expression, la personne qui «détient» ce savoir, et son rôle dans l'EIE. On propose l'emploi de l'expression «savoir autochtone» , qui englobe savoir traditionnel et non traditionnel, savoir écologique et non écologique, comme une solution qui permettrait aux peuples autochtones, ainsi qu'à toute la dimension de leur savoir, d'assumer un rôle intégral dans EIE. L'expérience acquise lors des efforts en vue de donner une voix et un rôle d'évaluateurs aux autochtones dans le projet d'exploitation de la mine diamantifère de Diamonds Inc. à Lac de Gras (Territoires du Nord-Ouest) a conduit à une approche holistique, à facettes multiples, qui vise à faire participer les autochtones et leur savoir à l'EIE. En raison de leur connaissance approfondie de la terre, les autochtones ont un rôle particulièrement important à jouer dans lé contrôle de l'environnement et la distinction entre les changements environnementaux dus aux projets et ceux dus à la nature. Toute la force du savoir traditionnel et des connaissances scientifiques occidentales ne se manifestera toutefois que lorsqu'on admettra que les deux parties participent à une vision du monde élargie qui influence la façon dont les individus définissent la réalité.
