In 1998, the NRTEE launched a program to explore the relationship between Aboriginal communities and non-renewable resource development from the perspective of sustainability. What has emerged is one of the most comprehensive studies conducted over the past 10 years in Canada’s North of Aboriginal communities and non-renewable resource development. Using extensive research and multistakeholder input, the report presents 15 recommendations aimed at building sustainable Aboriginal communities in Canada’s North over the next 10 to 25 years.
