He is a key member of the Kaska Dena team that is negotiating a treaty with British Columbia and Canada, and a land claim with Yukon and Canada.

On behalf of the Kaska Dena, Mr. Foy has worked on a variety of other issues including: the collection and archiving of traditional use and occupancy information; the provision of technical advice to the BC First Nation representative on the Mackenzie River Basin Board; the development of a strategic plan for land and resource use within the Kaska Dena traditional territory; and the development a recreation management plan for the Muskwa-Kechika Special Management Area in northern BC. Many of these studies and initiatives have involved extensive consultation with Kaska communities and membership, consultation and work with other First Nations including the Tsay Keh Dene and Fort Nelson First Nation, and close work with federal, BC and Yukon government officials. He is also currently assisting the Tahltan Central Council in its participation in the environmental assessment processes of several mining projects within the Tahltan traditional territory.
