Extracting Justice: The Human Rights Impact of Canadian Mining

video thumbnail
Join speaker James Yap for the Sir Graham Day Lecture in Ethics, Morality, and the Law.

Canada is home to an estimated 60% of the world's mining companies. They operate in all corners of the world and have acquired for themselves - and their country of origin - a bad global reputation for the serious human rights abuses that often occur in connection with their business activities abroad. Focusing on the Nevsun litigation - where a Canadian court ruled for the first time that a Canadian corporation may be held civilly liable for acts of slavery - this lecture will explore the challenges of holding Canadian mining companies legally accountable for complicity in human rights abuses overseas, and what more can be done to address the problem.
