The purpose of the Indigenous Habitat Participation Program and the Salish Sea Initiative, is to support the participation of Indigenous peoples in activities relating to the conservation and protection of fish and fish habitat, including the development of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans’ (DFO) policies, program elements and regulations and the development of their technical capacity to support greater involvement in the conservation and protection of fish and fish habitat.
To support the restoration of valued marine and freshwater aquatic habitats, respond to fish habitat restoration priorities and contribute to the long-term sustainability of fish and fish habitat. In particular the program prioritizes projects proposed by Indigenous groups consulted in relation to the Trans Mountain Expansion project (TMX), in the Salish Sea area as well as along the Fraser river watershed and in-land freshwater area along the length of the TMX pipeline.
