The MP says a proposed boundary change for Sydney\u002DVictoria in Nova Scotia was done without the consultation of Indigenous constituents.

Jaime Battiste says a proposed boundary change for Sydney-Victoria was done without the consultation of its Indigenous constituents — a move he says does not foster inclusion in politics.Sign up to receive the daily top stories from the National Post, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.

The Constitution stipulates that federal boundaries must be reviewed every 10 years to reflect changes and movements in Canada’s population. A House of Commons committee reviews reports submitted by the independent commissions that are tasked with changing boundaries in their provinces, but the decisions are ultimately theirs.

Any approved changes will take effect during a general election held after April 1, 2024, at the earliest.

Just another racist Liberal MP I still can believe that guy kept his job!

This guy is a loser.

Those Tweets had nothing to do with why he got kicked out of riding. Looks like the real Pretendians are his own people who don’t like him for what he’s doing in life, or they are the ones that want to keep First Nations from stepping up to their rightful places in Parliament.

Good

Any more good news, this guy has misogamy written all over him

This Pretendian disgusts me.
