INTRODUCING : TECHNOLOGIES AND PRACTICES : EXPLORING AND DEVELOPING MINERALS THROUGH CONCERT WITH MOTHER EARTH

SINCE TIME BEGAN : salus populi suprema est lex - the right of the people is the supreme law : IN TRUTH WE TRUST


“MINING.COM: In November 2019 the provincial government passed the legislation to implement the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, UNDRIP, which the Truth and Reconciliation Commission confirms as the framework for reconciliation.  British Columbia is home to 198 First Nations. In terms of advancements in reconciliation with Indigenous communities through agreements and partnerships embodying the principles of the UNDRIP, where is BC at in terms of First Nations reconciliation?

Johnston (AME) : In some respects we’ve come so far, and are leading the pack. With this new UNDRIP legislation, we are leaders around the world for how we interact with our indigenous communities. But looking through a different lens we are still very much at the early stages and at the very beginning. We look at the legislation, and we don’t really know how it’s going to move forward, we don’t really know what’s going to be included in the action plan and how its going to be shaped. Bill 41 really gives the government the power to implement UNDRIP to all of the other laws, so there’s going to be an action plan formed, out of Bill 41… we have a really long way to go to figure out what that looks like. We’ll continue to work with government to figure out how all those things get implemented. In that context, we’re still at the early stages of our story. In the 15 years I’ve been working in the field, the conversations have changed, vastly.” … Quoted From Mining.Com
