Stay current with the latest developments in Indigenous law and policy across Canada by joining Osler’s Indigenous Law Insights, a monthly 30-minute webinar series designed for legal and business professionals.

In our April session, Sander Duncanson, partner and Co-Chair of the Regulatory, Indigenous, and Environmental Group, explored a recent decision that emphasizes that the Crown’s duty to consult requires substantive meaningful engagement on all relevant issues, including economic feasibility, before approving projects that may impact Indigenous rights and territories.

Additionally, Sean Sutherland, partner, discussed how the Supreme Court of Canada has clarified the issue of abuse of process in the context of multiple legal proceedings involving Indigenous claims.

Each of our Indigenous Law Insights webinars provides timely and practical information on what these developments mean for your business.
