“I think it’s important to communicate to the public that things like Aboriginal title and FPIC don’t mean the end of resource development in Canada.”
After competing in one of the country’s top Indigenous law events, longtime Rocky View County resident Henry Wearmouth concluded that reconciliation is not the end of natural resource development in Canada.
Negotiating against teams from across Canada, Wearmouth’s team successfully hashed out a governance agreement during the 2024 Kawaskimhon National Aboriginal Moot on March 8 and 9 in Kamloops. A moot court competition simulates a court hearing where teams of students analyze a problem, research relevant law, prepare written submissions, and present oral arguments.
“I appreciated the opportunity to learn a lot about an area of law, Aboriginal law, that is going to be very consequential for resource development,” he said. “Resource development is very important pretty much everywhere in Western Canada, including Rocky View County.”
Growing up on a farm outside of Cochrane, Wearmouth said he was surrounded by natural resource development in agriculture and the oil and gas industry.
