Draft, obtained by CBC News, would give First Nations more say over mining projects
A draft framework for Yukon’s proposed new mining legislation outlines major changes to the existing system, including more say for First Nations on mining projects in the territory.
The 30-page draft framework has been in the works since 2021 and was obtained by CBC News through an access to information request. The territorial government had earlier declined to release the document while consultations were underway.
