The Canadian Institute's Forum on:

SUCCEEDING IN PROJECT DEVELOPMENT IN THE NORTH

Capitalizing on Enhancements in Regulatory, Consutative and Environmental Process

Monday, May 09 to Wednesday, May 11, 2011
Four Seasons Hotel, Vancouver, BC

Learn How to Use New Tools and Legal Developments to Seize Project Opportunities in the North

You want to take advantage of the rich resource potential in Canada’s North, but know that projects north of 60° are often cumbersome and difficult to implement. Processes are changing in Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut to stimulate project activity. How will your projects be affected by legislative and regulatory initiatives, some of which are being implemented as early as this year? How can you work more effectively with key Aboriginal groups in the wake of significant decisions by the Courts to maximize consultation success, save time and money, and minimize misunderstandings?

The Canadian Institute has brought together an exceptional speaker faculty from all northern jurisdictions and representing many perspectives to enable you to:

  • PLAN PROJECTS around the latest legislative and regulatory initiatives affecting northern project process
  • DEVELOP PROJECT STRATEGIES and timelines to reflect key recent decisions on Aboriginal consultation
  • SAVE TIME AND MONEY by navigating northern regulatory process through the NPMO
  • DETERMINE KEY IMPACTS of the NuPPAA on projects in Nunavut
  • UNDERSTAND key proponent, Aboriginal, and government perspectives on measures to improve regulatory process and maximize consultation opportunities

PLUS! Gain a practical understanding of the system and steps involved in regulatory approvals and land use planning in Yukon, NWT and Nunavut from our intensive Master Class: MAPPING JURISDICTIONAL AND REGULATORY PROCESS IN THE NORTH
