continues to be central to their lives, their ability to access their territories, and their conception
of themselves as aboriginal peoples, despite historical change. Use of the river by the
participants is still strong and diverse, and while use has generally declined, it has declined
in some areas more than others. Use for drinking water, trapping and teaching have declined
more than use for hunting, transportation, and cultural/spiritual and wellness practices.

The Study suggests that reduced quantity and quality of water in the Athabasca is having
adverse effects on the ability of ACFN and MCFN members to access territories, and to
practice their aboriginal and Treaty rights, including hunting, trapping, fishing and related
activities.},
