They say the process by which the federal government and the hereditary leaders arrived at a proposed deal on Wet’suwet’en rights and title is unacceptable

VANCOUVER — The elected leadership of several First Nations split over a natural gas pipeline in northern British Columbia are calling for the immediate resignation of Crown–Indigenous Relations Minister Carolyn Bennett.

“This lack of proper consultation and secrecy means the governments are acting in bad faith contrary to the Honour of the Crown.” But hereditary house chiefs say the company has no authority to build the pipeline through their territory without their consent, and their opposition sparked demonstrations and blockades that shut down large parts of the national economy in February.

Or a big cheque. It’s that easy.

What the native community needs to do it to decide who's actually in charge of them. They have to many 'leaders and chiefs'. Then they need to realize they're just normal Canadians

Thank Justin for making UNDRIP law in Canada. 628 sovereign “nations” within the country. Canada, Australia , New Zealand and the US rejected it in 2007 as unworkable. He made it law in 2016.

MooseMan1956 🇨🇦’s being forced by libs to wipe their asses on a never ending wagon wheel of political correctness at the expense of livelihoods &families while not only paying for this political pandering but the perpetually expensive native prosperity dead end game that doesn’t change or end

For sure.

Why ? Because she’s gonna squeal on their corruption?

Who the hell cares, they only time they seem to be quiet and not bit*hing is when they are cashing in their treaty cheque’s!

One chief has a hard time communicating with the other chiefs, so now this internal.problem they want to solve it by getting someone else fired for the FNs mistakes in not communicating between each other. Got it. No responsibility within the FN I guess...

Who cares?
