- Canada's Woodland Cree First Nation has rejected oil and gas producer Obsidian Energy's proposal to expand drilling operations on its traditional territory, the Indigenous community said in a statement on Monday.

The community urged Obsidian to address their concerns about a series of earthquakes in their territory in late 2022 and early 2023, that regulators said Obsidian were responsible for.Calgary-based Obsidian produces around 6,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day , or 20% of its total production, from assets in the Peace River region, some of which are within Woodland Cree territory.
