Staying abreast of developments in Indigenous law and policy is critical for legal and business professionals in many industries across Canada. To help you stay current, Osler is pleased to present Indigenous Law Insights, a monthly webinar series.
Available live and on-demand, each 30 minute session will provide you with an update on recent court decisions, as well as pending and new legislative and policy developments. Members of our Indigenous Law group will deliver timely and practical information about what these developments mean for your business.
Richard King, Co-Chair of Osler’s Regulatory, Indigenous and Environmental Group shares his insights on the following cases:
- A primer on the duty to consult in the context of Tsilhqot’in National Government v. Director, Environmental Management Act, a recent decision of the BC Environmental Appeal Board that provides insight on the approach taken by an administrative tribunal to the duty to consult and the extent of consultation required where last-second issues are raised by First Nations.
- An update on the Government of Canada’s review of the federal procurement strategy for Indigenous businesses.
