Presented live via webconference by the CBA's National Environmental, Energy and Resources Law Section

Those in the mining, forestry and property development business need to know about and pay attention to the Species at Risk Act, the Migratory Birds Convention Act and the Fisheries Act, and a host of other federal and provincial conservation regulation. Our speakers will present:

•  How each serves to protect different elements of our natural environment
•  The intersection of these statutes with the 'precautionary principle'
