The purpose of a Harvest plan here in Pikwàkanagàn is to ensure a healthy sustainable number for any animal or plant that is harvested. Conservation and safety are the main priorities.

Algonquins believe they are the caretakers of the creatures and plant life on this planet. It is our responsibility to maintain a healthy balance between us and Nature.

By monitoring, managing and enforcing plans and laws we ensure conservation is maintained for the benefit of our future generations.

The Algonquin Harvest Department comprises a Enforcement Officer and a number of monitors to ensure that the Algonquin Nation Law concerning hunting and fishing within Algonquin Territory is upheld. The Enforcement Officer works under the supervision of the the Community Safety Co-ordinator.
