We’re excited to announce the results of this year’s Resource Industry Calendar Photo Contest! Congratulations to Grand Prize winner Hughes de Milleville for his striking photo “Pine Marten Running in the Snow,” captured in Algonquin Park. Thank you to all participants for sharing your creativity—your photos help bring Canada’s resource stories to life.
Learn to effectively navigate the permitting & compliance requirements for mining & exploration projects in Ontario. Receive a comprehensive overview of the environmental responsibilities that exist within the framework of a modern-day mining operation. Among the topics covered are a discussion of the federal and provincial legislative frameworks and their application to the resource industry, environmental permit requirements and the permitting process, the role of Indigenous consultation on the permitting process, and an introduction to environmental management and compliance programs.
Common to most construction projects and industrial sites, fuel storage is an area of high risk for spills and potential harm to the environment.
This session will review the regulatory requirements in detail for fuel storage, and best practices for managing fuel storage. Participants will also practice what they have learned by auditing virtual fuel storage scenarios using the training materials provided.
Our practical hands-on workshop is designed to provide training for environmental technicians hired by industry to monitor environmental management practices at mining operations in Ontario. Students will experience an overview of fieldwork monitoring, environmental data entry and interpretation, environmental regulatory requirements, and compliance reporting.
The workshop is a mix of both classroom and field exercises. Proper seasonal apparel and PPE is required (i.e. CSA Approved footwear, reflective vest, hard hat, safety glasses, and gloves).
This training session aims to illustrate meaningful approaches to consultation between Indigenous Peoples and Industry and demonstrate some tools that can be used for engagement.
Participants will be made aware of diverse values and ways of thinking, the importance of developing relationships, and identify ways of bridging the gap between TEK and western science.
