The Hunting, Fishing and Trapping Coordinating Committee (the “Coordinating Committee”) is an expert body made up of Native and government (Québec and Canada) members. It is a consultative or decision-making body to responsible governments, according to the provisions of Section 24 of the James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement, and as such is “the preferential and exclusive forum for Native people and governments jointly to formulate regulations and supervise the administration and management of the Hunting, Fishing and Trapping Regime.” The JBNQA and the CNEQ confer to the Aboriginal nations that are signatories of these conventions certain hunting, fishing and trapping rights, as well as in the field of outfitting, among others. LEARN MORE
