(Presentation by Joan Kuyek, National Coordinator)
Thank you for this opportunity to appear before the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development.
MiningWatch Canada is a pan-Canadian coalition of environmental, Aboriginal, social justice, development and labour organizations that advocates for responsible mining practices and policies in Canada and by Canadian companies operating internationally.
We have a number of concerns with the amendments to CEAA which I will address here with reference to some specific mining projects.
