John is listed in Chambers Global, The International Who's Who of Business Lawyers, Best Lawyers in Canada, Lexpert/American Lawyer Media's Guide to the Leading 500 Lawyers in Canada and Expert Guides — Guide to the World's Leading Energy & Natural Resource Lawyers as an authority on mining, oil and gas and/or project law.
