Written By Stuart McNish

Guest: Bill Gallagher, Lawyer

Bill Gallagher, the author of Resource Rulers, has been watching and counting the impressive number of Court Decisions that side with First Nations.

He is pro-business, pro-environment and joint venture with First Nations every step of the way.

Gallagher points out if you want to develop any resource in Canada, then the first stop you need to make is to the First Nations in the area. Once there, your job is to earn the respect of your future partners.
