Paul Stevenson is the CEO of Sego Resources Inc. and has lived and breathed exploration and mining since he was 15 years old when his uncle helped get him his first job. Sitting down with Paul was an opportunity to understand the exploration process step by step. The process of getting a mining claim from the exploration stage to a fully producing mine often takes years and hinges on so many factors including the economy, current markets, government, and local communities. Paul provided us with some common events and steps that are involved in making a junior mining company successful.

Ep 23. Kinder Morgan Pipeline Negotiations with Indigenous Peoples with Keith Matthew

In 1951 Kinder Morgan began laying a pipeline across the Simpcw First Nation’s land. How was the deal negotiated? By a government official that spoke on behalf of the Simpcw people and Chief and Council was only symbolic. This was during a time when residential schools were considered the norm, and the Indian act controlled almost every aspect of Indigenous People’s lives. This history is where we started our interview with Keith Matthew who is a former Chief and Council of the Simpcw First Nation, a successful businessman, and member and founder of multiple organizations that are working to build economic opportunity for Indigenous People across BC.

Fast forward from 1951 to today and Keith’s community is now a power house of industry, negotiating with Kinder Morgan to secure maintenance and safety contracts for hundreds of kilometers of pipeline, partnering on a $7 million heli ski lodge investment, securing a fibre deal Gilbert Smith Forest Products, and working with Canadian Hydro for the Bone Creek Hydro Independent Power Project in Blue River. Keith has played many key roles along the way and offers deep insight into how deals get done and why so often disputes end up in court.

Keith tells a story about the time 1910 when Sir Wilfrid Laurier was meeting with indigenous leaders from the central interior of BC and they presented him with a Memorial to Sir Wilfrid Laurier document that outlined a way forward including sharing equity in their land’s resources, however when Sir Laurier lost the election and the work was lost. Keith goes on to explain that as a result of never finalizing that agreement now millions are spent in court because often that is the only path forward to settle disputes between Indigenous Peoples, companies, and the government.

A key element of these disputes is “Proof of Title.” According to Keith the Simpcw First Nation is one of the most litigious bands in Canada because they have not surrendered their unceded land. The attempt his forefathers made to secure an agreement would have both secured his people’s place within Canada’s economy but would have also eliminated billions of dollars in litigation and thousands upon thousands of hours in court over land and development disputes.

Like any good business leader Keith welcomes competition and he made very clear throughout the interview that his company’s don’t ask for special treatment because they know they can compete at a high level and operate at a fair price. In fact the negotiations between him and Kinder Morgan included that Simpcw First Nation would not be paid a premium for working on the pipeline on their own land. This approach carries over into his contracting company Sketch Arrowhead Contracting Ltd which is involved in heavy mining construction and was awarded a major contract with New Gold Inc.

Keith Matthew is someone who has met the Pope which he describes as “an incredible moment in my life and something that I will cherish forever” but even as a Catholic himself he still stood his ground on behalf of his people to ask for two things, an apology and another meeting. Courage, conviction, and competency are all clearly what Keith brings to the table. Leadership without these things leaves all of us without a clear direction…especially for the next generation. He is paving the way for the next generation(s) to move forward with a foundation that will shape the future of the Simpcw First Nation, Indigenous People, and Canadians.

Ep 25. Robotics in Agriculture and Horticulture – AI & IoT Technology

Welcome to the world of robotics in the industrial sectors! Today on the show Afshin Doust the CEO of AIS (Advanced Intelligent Systems) joins The Crownsmen Podcast to give incredible insight into how they have developed both an IoT platform and used AI technology to fulfill labour shortages and optimize efficiency challenges in agriculture and more specifically in horticulture.

In the interview Afshin explains how the IoT platform helps AIS robots learn from each other and make decisions about the behavior required through its artificial intelligence capabilities. He lays out how the company has evolved its products and their business model. AIS now has two products ready for market including robots fully equipped for moving and spacing plants. They have another ten in the works including pruning and shelf moving robots. This is all built off a subscription based business model so customers up front cost is minimal and they essentially only pay based on usage.

With rising labour costs in both North America and Europe and a decrease in willingness to do repetitive and labour intensive jobs, robotics companies provide a strategy for industry to offer higher skill level jobs without the physical demand. But what is the risk of robots replacing humans? Afshin points out that at one time you hit zero and a live operator came on the line. Now with all the automation telecommunications employees more people than ever before.

Partnerships have been key for AIS. Their manufacturer, Valid Manufacturing, and distributor, Agrinomix, are both also investors. Afshin outline how those partnerships developed and what each brings to the table. He offers his own outlook on how to maintain partners and resolves resolve conflicts. In many ways this episode is as much about leadership and successful collaboration as it is about technology and innovation.

Gold centrifugal concentrators have been developed over the past century and allow for mining operations to trap a higher percentage of the fine gold and other precious metals in black sands that used to disappear into tailing ponds. Along with the higher yields, operations are now able to run for extended periods of time because of the advancement in automation equipment allowing for run times of 8 hours up to 24 hour cycles.
