Day 2 of #MRC2024 is off to an exciting start! Our keynote lunch is featuring Denise Pothier, Chief Operating Officer at the Canadian Council for Indigenous Business. She’s sharing insights on building respectful, mutually beneficial business relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous businesses and improving Indigenous participation in the country’s economy, a topic that is very timely as our sector works to advance #MarineRenewableEnergy projects and ensure inclusivity and meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities and businesses.

While it's only day 1 of the #FNMPC2024 conference, it's quite clear as to why this is Canada's premiere conference for Indigenous-Industry partnerships. A few notable quotes from today: "It's time to do things differently. It's time to be bold." "Chief Gale and FNMPC are bringing the country together." - RBC CEO Dave McKay Dawn Madahbee Leach stressed the importance of 7 generations thinking (versus business quarter to quarter). She also spoke about the importance of the need for Indigenous Peoples on Boards, in management and in other decision-making roles within companies. Mark Cutifani - "If you rely on the law on what the basis of an agreement should be, it's an unstable basis to be building a project on. Laws can easily change. Go beyond the law." Peter Bryant quoted Matthew Coon Come in speaking about the Duty to Consult - "Consultation is insulting. Let's talk about participation." Jennifer C. Constant, CIL - "We had mining in our territory and the companies didn't even know who we were." Greg Rickford - "You heard from the Premier (Doug Ford) this morning - we are not moving forward with projects without consensus and support from communities." A fantastic discussion between Kate Finn and James Anaya on the business case for FPIC, which includes an equitable agreement for Indigenous communities. What were your biggest takeaways from day 1 at #FNMPC2024? First Nations Major Projects Coalition Mark Podlasly ICD.D
