UNESCO issued a stern warning that without immediate action Canada could lose world heritage site status for Wood Buffalo. It directed that the government immediately take 17 direct actions, including conducting an assessment of the impacts of site C dam on the Peace-Athabasca Delta , and engage directly with affected indigenous peoples. Indigenous leaders are saying this government's approach to site C has violated treaty and constitutional rights. Does the government have any intention of acting on these directives and concerns?
