Have people moved into disputed areas to press land claims or hunting rights?
Young: We had a case in the spring where some Innu went into a lake which is located very close to the one area which is closed in the whole low-flying area, a practice target area in which we drop inert weapons-concrete bombs and this sort of thing. They set up camp on the lake, but just used it as a dropping-off point. They shuttled people into the practice target area in an attempt to disrupt the flying. And, of course, we don’t drop anything if there’s someone standing there. The practice target area itself was selected some time ago with the help of an Innu representative who went in by helicopter and indicated that the area under consideration was of no value or significance to the Innu. NP: You may be able to alert people to stay clear of a particular area, but it’s not possible to cordon off wildlife populations. Hunters have to go where the animals are. Young: Yes, but even that can be accommodated. We have a standard offer that’s been there a long time. Tell us where you are,
