Our network is a network of 40 organizations and unions from across the country. We work together to advance respect for human rights by corporations. We do that through education, engagement with decision-makers and developing detailed law and policy reform proposals.
Our network has engaged with companies and industry associations in the past. We don't do that as a centre point of our work as a network, although some of our members do. That's partly due to a lack of resources and partly to the fact that those efforts did not lead to an impact in terms of getting information from the Mining Association of Canada and the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada on what kind of mechanism outside of industry control they would support. We couldn't get information or support about that.
Our focus is really on engaging with people who are impacted, studying best practices around the world and helping to ensure that the Canadian response lives up to Canada's international human rights obligations.
