Convention No. 169 carries the basic theme of the right of indigenous peoples to live and develop by their own designs as distinct communities. The Convention has extensive provisions advancing indigenous cultural integrity, land and resource rights, and non-discrimination in social welfare spheres: and it generally enjoins states to respect indigenous peoples' aspirations in all decisions affecting them. Convention affirms the value of indigenous communities and cultures, and sets forth a series of basic standards in that regard.

2. First Nations have no Decision Making authority in the process or the result
3. The Decision-Making Criteria under the EAO legislation does not include any mandatory First Nations criteria
4. The 2002 amendments to the BC Environmental Assessment Act removed a legislated role for First Nations from the process.
5. The EAO does not measure impacts of a project from an Aboriginal perspective
6. The Executive Director has no authority to accommodate infringements of Aboriginal and treaty rights and Aboriginal title.
7. Resources and funding inequities leave First Nations disadvantaged.
8. The Working Group format of review is not conducive to a productive discussion of infringements of Aboriginal rights and title.
9. The independence of the EAO may be compromised by political interests.
10. BC EAO has never rejected a project since its inception in 1995.
11. The EA review process in BC is focused on ensuring proper ƒ??processƒ?, rather than ƒ??substanceƒ? of the EA.
12. Cumulative Effects Assessment does not address Aboriginal rights and title
13. The time limits in the EA process are too restrictive to allow for government and First Nations to negotiate accommodation of infringements of Aboriginal rights and title.

In conclusion, First Nations need an environmental assessment process that:
ƒ?½ Is lead by an independent, politically neutral and unbiased agency,
ƒ?½ Is conducted jointly with First Nation governments,ƒ?½ Considers impacts of the project on Aboriginal cultural heritage and Aboriginal rights and title,
ƒ?½ Utilizes science-based and indigenous knowledge to measure the significance of impacts of a project,
ƒ?½ Is community based and community driven (i.e. assesses impacts that are of concern to the Aboriginal community impacted by the project and takes place within a timeline that is reasonable for engaging, educating and obtaining feedback with an Aboriginal community),
ƒ?½ Is more concerned with the rigour of the assessment than with the process of assessment,
ƒ?½ Provides effective and equal funding,
ƒ?½ Ensures there is adequate time and an appropriate forum for negotiation of accommodation of infringements of Aboriginalrights and title, and
ƒ?½ Delays a final decision until accommodation of infringements of Aboriginal rights and title has taken place.
