Abstract

York-Massey Visiting Scholarship (2019-20): Dayna Nadine Scott

Scott, awarded York Research Chair (Environmental Law and Justice in the Green Economy) in 2018, plans to use her time to begin drafting the book manuscript that will be the centre of her sabbatical scholarship outputs. She is currently working on a book proposal tentatively titled Consent by Contract: Settler Law and Indigenous Self-Determination in Ontario’s Ring of Fire.

“We desperately need to develop some rigorous and principled analysis on the question of what to do when Indigenous governing authorities say no to a project that Canadian regulatory regimes have said yes to,” she says.
