Clean energy is transforming First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities and shaping the future of Canada’s sustainable prosperity. Chris Henderson, president of Lumos Energy, is launching his new book, Aboriginal Power. The book asserts that aboriginal co-ownership of renewable energy projects can contribute to “a new story” in terms of Canada’s relationship with indigenous communities. Learn about the game-changing potential of ecologically-sensitive hydro, wind and biomass projects for Canada’s indigenous people. Chris will share his insights on the importance of clean and sustainable energy to the prosperity of aboriginal communities and Canada’s economic and environmental future.
