John Snow Jr., Co-Chair (IAMC)
Indigenous Advisory and Monitoring Committee, Line 3
Enbridge Line 3 involved the laying of 1,100 km of 48” pipe, across three provinces and 109 distinct Indigenous groups- and was still completed on time and on budget, without blockades, racial tension or public fighting, through significant collaboration garnered from all parties involved.
Pipeline development in Canada has met with significant resistance from various groups. This has ranged from legal challenges to human blockades, to cancelled projects. The cost in terms of time, capital and relationships has become enormous.
Enbridge Line 3 was challenged to build a massive pipeline, crossing Indigenous, provincial, and national boundaries. The existing Line 3 pipeline was 48 years old and represented a $5.3 billion investment- the largest project in Enbridge’s history. The Line 3 project involved the replacement of 1,067 kilometres of existing pipeline from Hardisty, Alberta, to Gretna, Manitoba, with new thicker pipeline built to modern specifications.
John Snow Jr. was asked to become the founding Co-Chair, moderator and facilitator of the IAMC committee. His multi year works on the committee focused on finding common ground and resolutions, involving 109 First Nations and Metis Nations, across the three provinces. This included meetings in person with local Chiefs and Councils, representatives and related parties, along with members from NEB (Canada Energy Regulator), Enbridge and The Canadian Government.
John now speaks about the project, key stories, lessons learned, and advice for anyone working on Indigenous related projects.

Business Consulting
Building on an international technology career in sales, marketing, management and consulting, Harvey now focuses on small to medium size businesses. Although trained in many business strategies from big organisations he uses the more workable framework from Gerber’s “The E-Myth”, as a foundation to get smaller companies prepared to move up to the next level. The biggest challenge is always to help leaders who have come from a technical background, to now do the work of the builder, the entrepreneur. This process typically includes education, coaching and consulting to prepare the Owner /Leader and company so that it can expand rapidly and profitably.
Harvey specialises in strategic growth, company organisation, effective marketing and sales. Given that most businesses greatest need is more sales, there is a concerted focus on creating compelling marketing messages, strategic positioning, powerful visual presentation, and convincing materials designed to attract the right clients. Similarly, there needs to be training for the owner, leaders and salespeople on how to effectively build relationships, create rapid movement through the sales cycle, closing business and maximising repeat business.
Harvey has developed many different processes to both speed the personal growth of the owner/entrepreneur and to position their company for substantial growth.
