Analysis Of Indigenous Rights And Interests In Federal Regulatory Reviews: Case Study Of Canadian Energy Pipeline Megaprojects

2021 Thesis/Dissertation Summary

Abstract

Construction of infrastructure megaprojects is a critical component of global economic growth and development (Cantú, 2017; Flyvbjerg, 2014). An example of megaproject development in Canada is the need for new natural gas and liquid energy pipelines to serve domestic and international markets. However, there are industry, government, Indigenous group, stakeholder and public concerns with the current process, pace and outcomes of pipeline regulatory reviews and decision making (Forrester, Howie & Ross, 2015; Mortlock, 2019). One of the primary concerns is the problem of managing unresolved and conflicting Indigenous rights and interests in megaproject regulatory reviews.
