Students interested in learning more about MICLA's work and how to participate are invited to a preliminary meeting from 4pm to 6 pm on Thursday September 19th, Room 617 Leacock Building.
Over the last twenty years, Canadian miners have become the most influential group within the continent’s mining sector. This presence has important consequences for hundreds of Latin American communities and countries that host these projects, but also for Canadian citizens whose government provides vital support for the industry and whose pensions and investments help finance its work.
