I specialize in environmental, regulatory and Aboriginal law issues for natural resource development projects. I have experience with matters before the National Energy Board, the Alberta Energy Regulator (and its predecessor the Energy Resources Conservation Board), the Ontario Energy Board, the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Office, the Alberta Utilities Commission, the Northwest Territories Office of the Regulator of Oil and Gas Operations and federal -provincial Environmental Assessment Joint Review Panels. I also have experience with regulatory, environmental and Aboriginal matters before the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench, the Alberta Court of Appeal, the Federal Court of Canada, the Federal Court of Appeal and The Supreme Court of Canada. The subject matter of my recent regulatory work includes oil and natural gas pipelines, oil sands (both mining and in situ), LNG export, offshore drilling, hydro-electric generation, mining (including coal, metal, potash and diamonds), natural gas processing, electricity transmission and contaminated lands. I also regularly advise clients on their obligations to Aboriginal groups and negotiate impact benefit agreements with Aboriginal groups on behalf of resource developers.

Gained experience in a variety of fields of corporate law, including regulatory, Aboriginal, environmental, oil and gas, commercial litigation, securities, commercial real estate, and mergers and acquisitions.

Managed the drafting department for a mid-size engineering firm specializing in electrical and instrumentation design for oil and gas projects (including well pads, gas plants, pump stations, tank farms, compressor stations, and co-generation facilities).
