energy and natural resource sector for the University of Calgary Environmental
Management Certificate Program on twelve occasions over the past six
years; and for the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology Environmental

• Review and recommend means of developing marine protected areas
for beluga whales in the Canadian Arctic in light of legislation and
wildlife management regimes established under the Inuvialuit Final Agreement.

framework for a marine protected area in the Canadian Beaufort Sea (1997-2001).
• Analyze and provide reports on jurisdictional issues, integrated
coastal management, marine transportation, liability for shipping accidents,
and Inuit and Manitoba First Nations issues as part of ongoing efforts

Arctic and Hudson Bay. This work involves interaction and co-ordination
of efforts with variety of governments and interested parties and supervision
of ongoing legal research (1999-2001).
• Various meetings, advice, research, and development of projects
involving energy markets, environmental measures, biotechnology, and
water management for Canada, Australia and Europe.
