The Province of New Brunswick wishes to support the development of clean, renewable energy that benefits all New Brunswickers. Providing additional economic opportunities in all regions of the Province in the energy sector is a key goal of the New Brunswick Energy Hub. To support this goal, the Province has developed a New Brunswick Community Energy Policy. The Province has designed this policy to foster the development of up to 75MW of community energy projects, of which 25MW will be allocated to First Nations.

The renewable electricity regulations outline how First Nations can become involved in renewable electricity generation and stimulate local economic development.

"This manual provides guidance to the review and assessment process of the Fish Processing Licensing Board and identifies important factors in the recommendation-making process. The Board’s analysis will consider the implications of a new license or license transfer on the region and the province"

"The purpose of this policy is to address the current needs of the aquaculture industry on Prince Edward Island with respect to allocation of new leases and the management of existing leases"

"The Department of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Rural Development is a partner in the PEI Aquaculture Leasing Program administered by the Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The Department , Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the aquaculture industry cost share the operation of the program."

"This policy applies to the commercial fisheries for fish and marine plants in Canadian fisheries waters in the Gulf region and in the NAFO (North Atlantic Fisheries Organization) Regulatory Area."

The Professional Master of Public Administration degree program is a graduate level program offered in partnership with Queen's University. This program will develop skills required in public policy development and analysis. It will augment management skills required for senior administrators in Indigenous organizations to translate policy into action. The program is unique in that learners are able to complete a specific concentration in Indigenous Policy & Governance.

"First Nations should be looking at opportunities to participate in renewable energy development at the local, regional, and provincial levels. This Summary Guide is the first step to assist the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick communities to become more familiar with the various renewable energy technologies, and to look at the range of opportunities that are possible."
