Discussion paper outlines five critical policy issues including: mineral tenure system and security of investment; Aboriginal rights and interests related to mining development; regulatory processes for exploration activities on Crown Land; land use planning in Ontario’s Far North; and private rights and interests relating to mining development.
File contains a presentation by Donald D. Cameron focusing on the forestry and mining industry. He urges the Commission to "endorse the concept of multi-use of Canada's natural resources, not just by tourist outfitters, trappers, fishermen and mining and forestry companies, but by Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal." A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation.
