The national, provincial and territorial round tables arose out of a key recommendation of the National Task Force on Environment and Economy and were set up in 1988 to provide forums for continuing discussion between various sectors and organizations interested in achieving sustainable development. Membership includes premiers, senior cabinet ministers, top executives of major national corporations, leading environmentalists and senior leaders in labour, agriculture, small business and universities. This first joint meeting discussed the development of different round table models and sustainable development strategies and identified areas of mutual interest in furthering the integration of the economy and the environment in each of their jurisdictions. This document summarizes the concepts of round tables and of sustainable development, gives the program of the meeting, then presents the addresses of the speakers in both English and French.

The interdisciplinary collection of essays investigates whether UNCED and its output were appropriate for averting global environmental and developmental catastrophe. The intellectual debate inside and outside UNCED has been dominated by powerful entrenched interests which marginalise rival interpretations of the crisis and block possible alternative ways forward. The crisis is therefore being tackled by a continuation of the very policies that largely caused it in the first place.
