Certainly, I'll try to respond, given how I understand your question, in the best way possible.
Obviously, the duty to consult has been framed by different courts nationally, and then we went a step further within the language of the declaration in referring to FPIC. Some would interpret it as a new condition, others would see it as a right to veto. This is where some parties would see it as advantageous to create that fear among Canadians in general, but more specifically with industry, that we're really putting our collective future in the hands of indigenous peoples. This is not so.
To me, this is where it's important to remind ourselves that the declaration is an international instrument that calls for input by all parties. First nations people, indigenous peoples, have as much of an obligation deriving from the principles of the declaration as Canadian companies, the federal government, and the provinces and territories.
