Statement by the Minister of Northern Affairs regarding the federal government’s decision on Baffinland’s Mary River Mine Phase 2 development project proposal

| Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada | statements

“Today, the federal government issued a decision on Baffinland’s Mary River Mine Phase 2 development project proposal. After careful consideration and consultations, the federal government is accepting the recommendation of the Nunavut Impact Review Board (NIRB) that the proposal, in its current form, should not proceed at this time. We encourage Baffinland to continue to work with partners in establishing a positive path forward following today’s decision. This can be done by Baffinland applying for a new project to adequately consider any new proposed commitments in a public setting, providing certainty for all partners.”

Work has been done to deliver on our commitments to close socioeconomic gaps, address injustices, combat prejudice and strengthen our relationship with Indigenous Peoples. This has also been an opportunity to have direct conversations and build personal relationships.
