“Once passed, this will bring us another step closer to a brighter future for Canada, one where all our children and grandchildren can prosper and thrive,” he said in a statement.The legislation, long promised by the Liberal government, affirms the application of the UN declaration in Canadian law, meaning it can used to interpret and develop legislation. It does not transform the declaration itself into the law.
The government said the bill is a response to calls from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the national inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women and girls.

It literally just came out that they won’t even meet their promise in regards to water advisories in First Nations...
Why don’t the indigenous communities hire out contractors due to covid and bill Ottawa? Certainly there are civil and mechanical engineering firms to provide the drawings?
So going back to the same people who exterminated the natives and now pretend to be benefactors. Go fool yourselves, hypocrites. Indigenous people are FREE and do not need you, some slimey politicians using them for your virtue signaling
It would mean more if all the indigenous community's had safe water to drink and bathe their children in. Oh wait... the government just said that promise wasn't going to be upheld.
lol there’s still a minimum of 15 water advisories on Indigenous reserved
Haven't they been working on this for a few years now?
The United Nations is not capable of taking the high ground on human rights in any way. KillThisBill. Canadians don't need an unaccountable international body to tell us to be good to one another.
Typical liberal lip service
Will JustinTrudeau return all the lands of Canada to its original owners in accordance with Article 28 of UNDRIP?
they're gonna do this and then continue to ignore the boiled water, housing and suicide crises on FNs, continue to pursue legal action against indigenous children in the supreme court and continue building infrastructure through their territory
Okay, cool, so is this just going to be like what jjhorgan and the bcndp did. All talk but no actual action. Ya know this means you have to cancel the CGL and TMX pipelines, right?! They both don't have free, prior and informed consent. UNDRIP
Sold FN out to the UN as a consolation prize. Sorry about the drinking water.
Pleased to see this development. leadership
Yes yes! Moving forward🙂
An election must be coming. Insanity: doing the same over and over and expecting different results. (Albert Einstein). ‘Thank you for your donation’. (Justin Trudeau).
Finally - Harper did not
Is this to distract from their failure to fulfill their promise to provide clean drinking water to all FN by 2021? ropeadope
JustinTrudeau how about you deliver on the clean drinking water first?
They’re already sending convicted indigenous pedophiles to “healing lodges” instead of prison
Good news for Canadian native people ! Happy this is happening ! localnatives NativeCentre nativenews_net Nativeesoul NativeAmerican NativeCanadian
Government had to be careful, wait for the nationalist retreat so as to continue Western ideals of sacrificing to ensure that nobody gets left behind. Tiresome fabrications of Soros, illuminati, one world government nonsense is fading, albeit ever so slowly. Reason is prevalent
The UN is the Liberal’s God. cdnpoli
Give them water... not words.
Liberals dead from the shoulders up. Let's give control of our country to the most corrupt organization in the world after the Liberal Party of Canada of course.
kkirkup “affirms the application of the UN declaration in Canadian law, meaning it can used to interpret and develop legislation. It does not transform the declaration itself into the law.” 🤔
No clean Water for FN But Trudeau postures to Corupt UN Media lap dogs cheer the idiot on the hill
Bad move - especially for the resource industries!
