Wayne Garnon-Williams of Garwill Law Professional Corporation and Michael Woods of Woods, LaFortune LLP, will be featured speakers at the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business’ (CCAB) Aboriginal Entrepreneurs Conference and Trade Show on October 9, 2014, at the Hilton Lac-Leamy Hotel in Gatineau, QC. The conference promises to provide an exclusive learning and business networking platform. Delegates from diverse industry sectors from across North America, including senior level decisions makers from corporate Canada, government officials and Aboriginal leadership, are scheduled to attend. In light of the recent Supreme Court of Canada decisions in Tsilhqot’in and Grassy Narrows, Wayne Garnon-Williams and Michael Woods will speak to the legal implications of the new paradigm and the opportunities and challenges relating to conducting business involving Aboriginal title land and treaty territories. Whether your organization seeks to do business with First Nations or you are currently in a business relationship on these lands, this joint presentation will walk delegates through what they need to know to strengthen business relationships to ensure mutual long-term prosperity.
