More about the book

The discovery of significant metal deposits in the James Bay Lowlands in 2007 sparked a mining rush, highlighting the urgent need for consultation with Indigenous Peoples about development on their lands. Despite initial enthusiasm and investment, the multibillion-dollar Ring of Fire project stalled due to disagreements among stakeholders. Virginia Heffernan's narrative explores the intricate dynamics of resource development and Indigenous rights, ultimately suggesting that the situation presents Canada with a chance to redefine responsible mineral extraction in support of the green energy movement.
