SUMMARY:First Nations and the energy to succeed
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous communities have unique and incredibly complex relationships with the oil\, gas and pipeline sectors. Media coverage emphasizes – and distorts – Indigenous engagement by focusing on the comparatively small numbers of conflicts with developers. After thoughtful local debate\, many Indigenous communities\, in fact\, choose to pursue careful partnerships with energy firms. \nThis webinar\, presented by three leading First Nations proponents for natural resource and pipeline development\, will explore the challenges\, opportunities\, risks and benefits from Indigenous participation in planning\, construction\, operations\, and ownership of oil\, gas and pipeline projects. The First Nations leaders will discuss the management of internal community disagreements\, the role of outside activists\, the engagement of Indigenous businesses\, and the building of Indigenous equity in the resource sector. \n\n\nEvent Details: \n\nDate: Monday\, December 4\, 2023\nTime: 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm ET\n\nPlease note\, that all registered attendees will receive a post-event recording of the webinar. If you are unable to tune in live\, you can watch the recording at your convenience. \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for this webinar below: \n\n\n\n﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿

SUMMARY:Assessing the Impact of the Impact Assessment Act ruling
DESCRIPTION:﻿ \nOn October 13th\, 2023\, the Supreme Court of Canada\, in a 5-2 decision\, held that the majority of the Impact Assessment Act was outside Parliament’s law-making authority and thus unconstitutional. The decision is highly significant in its delineation of federal and provincial jurisdiction. The Court reiterated that the federal government must be careful to not overreach into areas of provincial jurisdiction. \nIn the aftermath of the decision\, there is as much confusion as ever as to what it means and how much of the IAA can stand. The federal government has indicated that some targeted amendments\, which could be done quickly\, would be sufficient to “course correct”. Some provinces have argued that IAA is beyond repair\, with the Ontario Attorney General launching a court case less than two weeks after the SCC decision to kill the law once and for all. \nWhat does the Supreme Court decision on the IAA mean for future assessments of major projects\, and for those in the IAA process today? What must the federal government change to make the IAA constitutional? How will the decision impact other proposed federal environmental laws such as the Clean Electricity Regulations and emissions cap on the oil and gas sector? \nTo cut through the politicking\, this webinar will bring together four of the country’s top legal experts on Canadian impact assessment and regulation to debate what the decision means and what lays ahead. \n\n\nEvent Details: \n\nDate: Friday\, December 15\, 2023\nTime: 1:0 pm – 2:00 pm ET\n\nPlease note\, that all registered attendees will receive a post-event recording of the webinar. If you are unable to tune in live\, you can watch the recording at your convenience. \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n \n\n\n\n\n\n﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿
