A Study in Institution Building for Dene Governance in the Canadian North: A history of the Development of the Dene National Office
For greater di scussions of rights and political history, we examine institution building for Aboriginal governance in the north by the Dene. The Dene Nation is a national northern Aboriginal organization that has, in turn, spawned several institutions and process for Aboriginal governance in the Canadian North. This study explains the institutional development of the Dene, in particular the Dene Nation and the Dene National Office, which have been for more than 30 years vehicles for the advancement of Treaty and Aboriginal rights implementation in Denendeh (Northwest Territories -N WT). This descriptive analysis begins with a discussion of the origins of Dene national identity, reflected in the story of Yamoria. Originally named the National Indian Brotherhood-NWT upon its creation in 1969, the national office has brought both the distinct regional and national concerns of Dene to national and international attention. As an organization, it has carried forward various processes that supported Dene governance including the Dene/Metis Land Claims, negotiations of the 1970s and 1980s, regional Land Claims and Self-Government Agreements, and a rejuvenated collectivism.

The Arctic Environmental Responsibility Index (AERI) covers 120 oil, gas, and mining companies involved in resource extraction north of the Arctic Circle in Alaska, Canada, Greenland, Finland, Norway, Russia, and Sweden. It is based on an international expert perception survey among 173 members of the International Panel on Arctic Environmental Responsibility (IPAER), whose input is processed using segmented string relative ranking (SSRR) methodology. Equinor, Total, Aker BP, ConocoPhillips, and BP are seen as the most environmentally responsible companies, whereas Dalmorneftegeophysica, Zarubejneft, ERIELL, First Ore‐Mining Company, and Stroygaz Consulting are seen as the least environmentally responsible. Companies operating in Alaska have the highest average rank, whereas those operating in Russia have the lowest average rank. Larger companies tend to rank higher than smaller companies, state‐controlled companies rank higher than privately controlled companies, and oil and gas companies higher than mining companies. The creation of AERI demonstrates that SSRR is a low‐cost way to overcome the challenge of indexing environmental performance and contributing to environmental governance across disparate industrial sectors and states with divergent environmental standards and legal and political systems.
