Replace beads and trinkets with fair offers and environmental guarantees

Replace beads and trinkets with fair offers and environmental guarantees. That’s the message to governments and multinational corporations from a conference called Value it: Connecting the dots, which will run May 2 and May 3 in Westbank First Nation. The conference is being organized by Indigenous Nations Economies and Trade (INET) in partnership with Grand Chief Ron Derrickson to help prepare Indigenous communities to deal with an estimated $650 billion of resource extraction investment on Aboriginal title lands.
