Officials from Nunavut, Nunavit, the James Bay Cree as well as from Canada, Quebec and Ontario gathered in Quebec City (June 22, 2011) to discuss strategies to address climate change and the future of the polar bear in the southern Hudson Bay region.

Chief Matthew Kakekaspan of Fort Severn First Nation addressed Cree concerns with respect to the decisions of various governments to list the polar bear as an endangered species in spite of little scientific data that suggests the polar bear population is declining.
