1) First Nations want equitable roles in the economy from IBAs, respect for their culture and traditional knowledge, environmental compliance that sets high standards, prosperous and sustained livelihoods, and benefits that leave a lasting legacy.
2) To ensure equity, First Nations should cooperate, share information, determine the Crown's role, foster innovative negotiations, and exercise due diligence on proponents.
3) Template agreements can provide equity if First Nations hold negotiating power, tailor templates to their values, build in fairness incrementally, and customize their suite of templates.
