Myth: The proposed amendments to YESAA will weaken the Act, and reduce environmental protection. Fact : Environmental stewardship will be enhanced. The proposed amendments to YESAA will actually strengthen the Act by increasing clarity and predictability for assessments, adding cumulative effects from activities that are likely to be carried out to the list of things that must be considered during an environmental assessment, reducing duplication of work, introducing a cost recovery regime, encouraging research and greater collaboration with other bodies, and re-affirming First Nations role in the assessment process.
