Bob Rae on Aboriginal Engagement

The Voice of Canadian Business

In this episode of the Voice of Canadian Business, Perrin Beatty, President and CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, sits down with the Hon. Bob Rae, former Ontario Premier and leader of the federal Liberal Party, to discuss Aboriginal Peoples' participation in Canada's resource economy. The relationship between Aboriginal governments and communities and resource development is an increasingly crucial issue to the Canadian economy. As chief negotiator and counsel for the Matawa First Nations in Northern Ontario's Ring of Fire development, Mr. Rae has a unique insight into how resource project proponents and Aboriginal communities can work together for the benefit of all.
