unexploded ordnance (uxo) has littered okib land at madeline lake and goose lake since the boer war in 1906. canadian soldiers were trained to fire "live mortars, grenades and other munitions, including white phosphorus". in 2014, over 70 years old live mortars were found; a clean up agreement specifies that beginning in 2015 ten band members will be trained to become uxo technicians.
