Invitation to Apply for the Mediation Roster
The ADR Institute of Canada (“ADRIC”) will, on behalf of the NEB, be creating a nation-wide roster of qualified and experienced mediators who have relevant training and experience in resolving disputes related to infrastructure development. Applicants will be selected based on

- capacity to deliver services in English and/or French, as required (and/or agreement to travel to specific regions, if fluently bilingual);
