Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs and representatives of the federal and provincial governments are expected to sign an agreement today that politicians say will rebuild relationships after anti-pipeline protests and blockades earlier this year.

The memorandum of understanding was signed in March, ending protests and blockades by First Nations across the country that damaged Canada's economy.

Elected chiefs of the First Nation say they should have been involved in the negotiations and are urging rejection of the agreement. Indigenous law expert Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond agrees with the elected chiefs, saying the signing should be postponed to allow for the governance issues to be worked out.

The world is reeling from the China Wuhan virus and politicians still screw around with aboriginal whining. Let the voters make the final decision in a binding referendum on reconciliation, politicians are too weak willed, too many are fools to make forever decisions.

What a farce.

You keep reposting this, as though doing so will make it true. The Government in fact did an end run AROUND the elected band officials, completely excluding them, and only made a deal with the so called 'hereditary chiefs'.

They ignore the elected Chiefs in order to virtue signal, and it doesn't even fix the pipeline dispute. Just does an end run around elected Chiefs and the deals they made. Totally inappropriate of this government.

The Natives are dealing with the Liberal Cabal and think they won’t get screwed over? Stupid is as stupid does

Without anything in that agreement being made public? Will this be legally binding?
