| Whitehorse Mining
Initiative Leadership Council Accord
The Mining Association of Canada, on behalf of the mining industry,
took a suggestion for a multi-stakeholder process to the mines ministers
of all senior governments at their annual conference in Whitehorse
in September 1992. The ministers agreed to become co-sponsors and
trustees of the process and named it the Whitehorse Mining Initiative.
Representatives of five sectors of society agreed to participate.
They were the mining industry, senior governments, labour unions,
Aboriginal peoples, and the environmental community.
