Merlin: is there going to be a study on how the mine has an impact on the diets of the people?

Caribou, fish, and other staples used to be consumed on a regular basis are no longer available. Important role for the communities, would be important to know how it impacted it.

Johnny Kublu: There is commercial fishing at Asta Lake on Gifford River which connects with Mary River, there will have to be studies on how the fish are effected by the mine.

The fish there is very tasty. Should be studies done on where the char migrates and its habitats, and on zooplankton and what the fishes eat.
