The Possibility of Difference: Rethinking Co-management
Abstract
Many of Canada’s Aboriginal peoples have adopted the language, concepts and procedures of environmental resource management in order to advance their needs, rights and interests in co-management. Drawing on the author’s experiences in co-management, the advantages and disadvantages of this project for Canada, its Aboriginal peoples, and its landscapes are explored. Alternatives to the status quo, grounded in social, cultural and ecological sustainability, and modelled after the two-row wampum, are then considered. Both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal parties to co-management must critically examine current management policies and practices in order to develop innovative approaches that will create the space required for the meaningful and equitable inclusion of Aboriginal peoples in decisions taken in respect to their lands and resources.

“Though a historical model of coexistence, it remains salient today where it is being applied to environmental protection and restoration programmes (Ransom & Ettenger, 2001), water quality monitoring projects (McGregor, 2002) and resource co-management initiatives (Stevenson, 2006).”

In the citing paper
“similar arguments and scenarios have been built around the Two Row Wampum model (seeStevenson, 2006), the Two Ways philosophy (seeMuller, 2014), and the Double-Canoe framework (seeMaxwell et al., 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
