Indigenous communities in Canada are actively involved in economic development opportunities based upon their unique circumstances. Indigenous communities advance economic development opportunities to self-determine their economic strategy and priorities and to implement community economic plans. This book provides a practical grounding in the various legal considerations and developmental issues that arise when Indigenous Nations engage in economic development initiatives. Through the implementation of UNDRIP (United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples) and accommodation of aboriginal and Treaty rights, Indigenous communities have been able to leverage impact and benefit negotiations to further their economic development, often through unique corporate structures.
Legal Issues on Indigenous Economic Development, 2nd Edition explores the legal framework concerning economic development opportunities for Indigenous communities and nations. Author Darwin Hanna brings over 25 years of experience, practicing and teaching in indigenous economic development. In this book, he thoroughly reviews the implementation of the principle of free, prior and informed consent and provides economic development case studies of communities, including in respect to gaming and cannabis opportunities. He shares his unique insight into the principles governing Aboriginal and business law, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the key decisions, concepts and doctrines in this changing and evolving area.
