"The Northern Yukon has been recognized nationally and internationally as a unique and critical area for wildlife and for the indigeneous Loucheaux and Inuvialuit peoples. The area's unique wildlife and fish populations, landforms, vegetation, cultural and archaeological values require protection. ... To implement the public policy and commitment for conservation the Steering Committee was established as a public process to make recommendations to the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development on matters relating to the National Wilderness Area (see draft Terms of Reference - Appendix C). With the transfer of Parks Canada from the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development to the Department of Environment it was decided that the Committee would report to both of these Ministers. ... The Committee is to advise the Minister on the purpose and function of the National Wilderness Park, on an interim management plan for the proposed Park area and on the establishment of a permanent management regime"--p. 2-3.
