Imperial Canada Inc. sets out to ask a simple question: why is Canada home to more than 70% of the worlds mining companies?Created by the British North America Act of 1867, Canada, rather than turning away from its colonial past, actively embraced, appropriated, and perpetuated the imperial ambitions of its mother country. Two years later, it took possession of Ruperts Landall of the land draining into Hudson Bayand the North West Territories from the Hudsons Bay Company, 3 million square miles of resources, and set about its nationbuilding enterprise of extending its Dominion from sea to sea.This Canadian imperial heritage continues to offer the extractive sector worldwide a customized trading environment that: supports speculation, enables capital flows to finance questionable projects abroad, pursues a proactive diplomacy which successfully promotes this sector to international institutions, opens fiscal pipelines to Caribbean tax havens, provides government subsidies, and most especially, offers a politicized legal haven from any risk of litigious recourse attempted by any community seriously affected by these industries.Traditionally rooted in Canadian law, the right to reputation effectively supersedes freedom of expression and the publics right to information. Hence, Canadian bodies corporate, i.e. Canadianbased corporations, can sue for libel any and all persons or legal entities that quote documents or generate analyses of their corporate practices that they do not approve of. Even foreign academics have become hesitant about presenting their work in Canada for fear of such prosecution.The authors of Imperial Canada Inc., all respected scholars in their fields, meticulously research four factors that contribute to the answer to this question: Quebecs and Ontarios mining codes; the history of the Toronto Stock Exchange; Canadas involvement with Caribbean tax havens; and, finally, Canadas official role of promoting itself to international institutions governing the worlds mining sector.
