TORONTO – First Nations in Ontario have more opportunities to participate in energy projects.
“There are a number of involvements by our communities within the energy sector,” said Anishinabek Nation Deputy Grand Council Chief Chris Plain. “So, that tells me one good thing. Everybody is aware of the opportunities. But it’s the challenges and the barriers that prevent everybody from getting on board.”
Deputy Grand Council Chief Plain made his comments at the Anishinabek Nation Energy Engagement Forum, held May 26-27 in Toronto. He was one of five Chiefs who spoke during the Anishinabek Nation Leadership Panel session at the forum.
