Description

Description

The federal government of Canada is proposing changes to the rules governing the development of major projects, including interprovincial pipelines, transmission lines, and offshore renewable energy projects. The proposal involves transferring review authority from the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada to the Canada Energy Regulator and creating a Crown consultation hub to coordinate Indigenous consultations. The Assembly of First Nations opposes these changes, citing risks to Indigenous rights and inadequate consultation.
