How will non-Inuit residents of Labrador be affected?
A. Existing interests of private landowners in Labrador will not be affected. Crown land leases and licenses will be protected and may continue according to their terms and conditions, but applications for renewal of those in Labrador Inuit Lands and the Inuit Communities will have to be made to the Nunatsiavut Government, which may impose additional reasonable terms and conditions such as fees. Existing interests of commercial harvesters in Labrador will not be affected. Domestic harvesters will require permission from the Nunatsiavut Government to harvest on Labrador Inuit Lands, but special provision has been made to accommodate harvesting on Labrador Inuit Lands by non-Inuit who are long-term residents of the Labrador Inuit Settlement Area. Outside Labrador Inuit Lands, non-Inuit will continue to harvest domestically in accordance with federal and provincial laws. Free access to cross Labrador Inuit Lands along standard routes for casual purposes will continue. Nunatsiavut Governme
