About this listen
On this week’s Insights podcast, Don and David speak with the Honourable John Herron, Minister of Natural Resources with the Government of New Brunswick. No other province in Canada has seen a larger decrease in economic activity associated with mining in the past 30 years. The GDP from mining has declined by more than 85 percent. Minister Herron is on a mission to change this. He would like to see New Brunswick become an important producer of critical minerals creating high paying jobs as well as tax and royalty revenue for government. Don, David and Minister Herron discuss how to make New Brunswick an attractive location for mining investment, the partnership with First Nations and how to achieve community support. For anyone interested in economic development, this is well worth an hour of your time.
