Definitely, I think, where a state's obligations cannot be complied--meaning that it is very clear that companies operating abroad come under host state obligations first--some host states...and the government, as Canada has recognized in the 2009 strategy, do not necessarily have the judicial capacity or the governance
to monitor the activities of mining companies in the field.
This is an impasse for all stakeholders. Do we sit there and not do anything and see these situations become violent and degrade and become a bigger problem for all the stakeholders--Canada, the host states, the victims, and the company--that are suffering from this?
