Description for case is given below :
Rapid increases in obesity and chronic disease rates are stressing healthcare systems and government budgets around the world. They are also causing people, governments and companies to look more closely at the relationship between food and health. The issue is complex and involves many stakeholders from government and non-governmental agencies, as well as businesses. Food and health can have both positive and negative impacts on the food industry. As the director of strategic policy at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Mike Walters has to decide whether to engage his Ministry in the issue and, if so, what approach to use. He must carefully assess the risks and rewards for the government, the ministry and for himself. As part of his strategy on food and health, he has to make an immediate decision on partnering with the Lawrence Centre for Policy and Management at the Richard Ivey School of Business on a proposed food and health policy workshop.

Case Solution for Indian and Northern Affairs Canada – The New Horizon Farms Dilemma

Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      Indian and Northern Affairs Canada – The New Horizon Farms Dilemma
Authors :           David Sparling, Steven Koeckhoven
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            W12864
Discipline :        General Management
Case Length :    15 pages

Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
The director of Lands and Economic Development in the Ministry of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) must make recommendations on how to handle challenges around a large farming company that leases land from First Nations communities in Western Canada. New Horizon Farms (NHF) has already leased over 180,000 acres from First Nations communities and plans to grow to one million acres. An immediate challenge is the leasing process whereby INAC must review and sign leases and receive lease payments, which are later turned over to the First Nations. The process slows the partnering process and the speed of cash flow to First Nations and many First Nations object to government control over their land on principle. However, without INAC involved, the leases are not legally enforceable, an essential factor for NHF and its public parent company. NHF provides leasing revenue but also training, employment, and shares in the company to the First Nations it partners with. On the surface it looks like a good opportunity, but it raises several questions for policy makers. Will NHF’s control of one million acres of First Nations land be seen as a form of economic colonialism? How does this kind of initiative fit with INAC’s and First Nations’ mandates to improve economic and social conditions among First Nations communities? How will the provinces and neighbouring communities perceive and react to the situation? New Horizon Farms also needs to consider its long-term strategy. Will the operation meet its target of one million acres? What are the risks for the company? How should it approach the training issue now that funding has finished?
