About Wayne Garnons-Williams

Born on the Moosomin First Nation in카지노 게임 컬렉션¯Saskatchewan, Wayne graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from the 카지노게임사이트 of Windsor and a Bachelor of Laws from Queen's 카지노게임사이트. He practiced in litigation for the federal department of Justice for nine years, and then became senior litigation counsel for the Sierra Legal Defense Fund Eagle Project, which litigates Aboriginal title and environmental issues on behalf of First Nations in British Columbia and Alberta. He has served as the chair of the National Council for Aboriginal Federal Employees and the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations Tribunal.  

Throughout his career as a lawyer, tribunal member, and president of the International Inter-tribal Trade and Investment Organization, Wayne has consistently challenged the status quo of Aboriginal relations in Canada to further ensure recognition of inherent Indigenous economic rights. Currently an active member in the Indigenous Bar Association, the Canadian Bar Association - Aboriginal Law, Federal Court, and Administrative Law chapters, the Carleton County Law Association and the Advocates' Society, Wayne has also continuously given back to Queen's by providing his expertise as a lecturer and assisting professors with various research work on international trade and Indigenous issues.
