“Environmental Changes and Off-road Transportation in Churchill, Manitoba”by Justin Gilligan is a single authored, refereed community report. This book links harvesters’ traditional and local knowledge observations with scientific knowledge on the implications of Environmental Change and Off-road Transportation in Churchill, MB. Based on Justin Gilligan’s University of Manitoba Master of Arts thesis of the same name (2007), this community report was prepared for the community of Churchill and others who may find useful the observations on environmental change made by harvesters: hunters, trappers and fishers, in the Churchill region of Manitoba. Hunters, trappers and fishers are experts on local environmental change; rather than testing or validating traditional and local knowledge against scientific knowledge, observations from both knowledge systems are presented here in parallel to gain a more holistic understanding of the impacts and opportunities that face harvesters in Churchill area.
