Projects

• Climate Action Planning Project - The Climate Action Planning project, led by Musqua Environmental Ltd. in partnership with the George Gordon First Nation, marks a significant step towards enhancing the environmental monitoring and management capabilities of the community. This project uniquely combines Indigenous Knowledge systems with scientific methodologies to create a robust framework for understanding and managing the ecological dynamics of the land.
• Climate Resiliency Project - The Assessing Indigenous Traditional Resources: Creating a Resilient Climate Future project is an ambitious and strategic initiative led by Musqua Environmental Ltd., in partnership with the George Gordon First Nation. This significant collaborative effort aims to address and mitigate the impacts of climate change on Indigenous traditional territories, particularly those located in the vulnerable region south of the 60°N latitude in Saskatchewan, Canada. The project is founded on the principles of community engagement and environmental stewardship, aiming to blend modern scientific research with the rich Traditional Knowledge of the local Indigenous populations.

George Gordon First Nation Plastic Waste Stewardship – A Zero Plastic Waste Initiative

In 2020 Musqua Environmental Ltd (formally Wicehtowak Limnos Consulting Services LP) secured funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada through the Zero Plastic Waste Initiative in conjunction with George Gordon First Nation, to develop a plastic waste management program. We started with six (6) single-stream recycling bins, placed in the Core Area, school, and the local store. These bins accept all manner of household recyclables, from flattened cardboard, glass, plastics, and tin cans. Awareness and educational material have been distributed to the school and community to raise awareness and to help reduce the amounts of recyclable material from entering our landfill. We have purchased smaller bins that were distributed to households that were wanting to participate. Three roller bins were also purchased for the George Gordon Education Centre, to make it easier for them to collect recyclables from each classroom, common areas, and teachers’ lounge and then to the bin located on school grounds. Landfill inspections were also carried out monthly to make observations of any material that should not be making its way into the landfill. Bi-weekly bin checks are also carried out to ensure hazardous and non-recyclable material does not get placed in the bins.
