Costly project delays and community opposition can be avoided by engaging in ongoing and meaningful consultation with Aboriginal communities. Knowing the best way to go about this can be a challenge. This is a continually evolving field incorporating case law decisions and best practices and guidelines from Aboriginal communities, government and industry.

Consulting with communities in the North differs from other consultation practices elsewhere in Canada, and understanding these processes can be challenging.
