NCC was developed in response to meetings of First Nation Chiefs from across Canada who were interested in forming a coalition of industry-supportive and pro-development Chiefs from across Canada with a mandate to “Defeat On-Reserve Poverty.” 

In addition to promoting and advocating for Canada’s natural resource industry, the NCC also supports Canada’s clean energy transition, LNG production and export, precious metals mining, uranium mining, SMRs, Canada’s nuclear industry, Canada’s oil and gas industry, forestry, IT and network connectivity, CCS and CCUS development, the Pathways Alliance project, and sustainable First Nation community models.
