In Canada, there are numerous minority groups. One of the most influential and widely spread groups is the First Nation peoples. Although they are the minority, they are still contributing to the environment protection in Canada. The idea of being “green” is highly connected with the First Nation’s traditions, lifestyles, and sprites.Despite the abundance of natural resources in Canada, the First Nations use these resources in the most efficient way. For example, if they hunt a moose, every part of the moose will be exploited. They tend to minimize the waste of all parts of animals or plants. The meat will be eaten and the fur will be used to make clothing. Their belief of never waste any parts of natural resources helps Canadian environment being “green”, and this idea is still advanced in the modern society, influencing our life. As we can see, the traditions and lifestyles of this minority, the First Nation, effectively protect our beautiful true-north-strong-and-free.
