Its most controversial fea- ture is a call for “free, prior, and informed consent” (FPIC) by Indigenous peoples before economic development projects can take place on lands they inhabit or to which they may have a claim. Because UNDRIP is neither a convention nor a treaty, it is not legally binding unless it is adopted in legislation. Canada opposed UNDRIP at the United Nations because FPIC and similar sweeping provisions in the document are not con- sistent with Canadian constitutional law. The government of Stephen Harper adopted it in 2010 with the proviso that it was a statement of aspirations but not legally binding. The same position was taken by the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Since 2010, Indigenous advocates have made several attempts to enshrine UNDRIP in legislation, using ambiguous language about its legal impact. Support by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission was particularly important. NDP MP Roméo Saganash presented two private member’s bills that ultimately failed to receive passage in Parliament.

  • Brief to the Electoral Reform Committee
    Brief to the Electoral Reform Committee My name is Jennifer Ross and I’m most definitely writing this as an individual. I work full time in a public accounting office, and have for the last 27 years. I currently hold the position as Treasurer of Fair Vote Canada (FVC) and am a proud Liberal Party member, and serve on the board of the Kitchener Centre Federal Liberal Association. I’m also one of the leaders of FVC’s Liberals for Fair Voting Caucus. Oh, yes, and I’m also part of the Fair Vote Canada Waterloo Region Chapter. I’m not good at schmoozing or saying things with great tact. I don’t mean anything to be insulting, it is just how I see it. No sugar-coating with me. Summary I had been following along with the expert testimony meetings of the ERRE, and want to bring to your attention certain issues and items that I think need either greater attention, or clarification, or downright alternative evidence. These include; expert witness equality, best runners up, votes that count, mandatory voting, and the need to focus on citizen or human sensibilities. All Experts are not Created Equal On occasion I have been bothered by what seems to be an apparent decision to treat every expert witness and their testimony as equal to every other expert witness and testimony. All witnesses heard from at the ERRE deserve the respect and thanks of Canadians and ERRE committee members. But that doesn’t make them all equal in terms of expertise and reputation.

  • Sovereign Authority and the Limits of Constitutional Democracy: the Case of Indigenous Peoples in Canada
    Sovereign authority and the limits of constitutional democracy: The case of indigenous peoples in Canada OÑATI SOCIO-LEGAL SERIES VOLUME 10, ISSUE 1 (2020), 58-87: THE POLICY OF CULTURAL RIGHTS: STATE REGULATION, SOCIAL CONTESTATION AND CULTURAL DIVERSITY DOI LINK: HTTPS://DOI.ORG/10.35295/OSLS.IISL/0000-0000-0000-1101 RECEIVED 15 MAY 2018, ACCEPTED 23 JULY 2018 TREVOR PURVIS∗ Abstract The victory of Justin Trudeau’s Liberals in the Canadian federal election of 2015 brought with it hopes for meaningful change in the relationship between indigenous peoples and settler-Canadian society, with “reconciliation” a prominent feature of the new government’s discourse. But long on symbolism, the new government’s efforts have been markedly short on substance, and all good intentions seem unlikely to dislodge the more stubborn problems underpinning the relationship between indigenous peoples and the settler state that claims sovereignty over their lives. While many of the obstacles to be confronted involve familiar problems confronting institutional reform, deeper, more substantive barriers lie in the character of modern nation-formation and state sovereignty, and in contradictions that lie at the very heart of liberal constitutional democracies. Key words Indigenous peoples; liberalism; Canada; constitutional democracy; sovereignty; popular sovereignty; sovereign violence Resumen La victoria del partido liberal de Justin Trudeau en las elecciones de Canadá de 2015 trajo consigo esperanzas de un cambio significativo en la relación entre los pueblos This paper stems from a workshop at the International Institute for the Sociology of Law in Oñati, Gipuzkoa, Spain in July 2017. I would like to express my deep thanks to the workshop coordinators Miren Manias- Muñoz and Lucero Ibarra for the invitation to join the workshop, and for their helpful comments and suggestions.

  • A Critical Moment for Upholding the Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples
    News release May 10, 2021 A critical moment for upholding the human rights of Indigenous peoples Our Nations and organizations welcome the significant progress that is being made toward adoption of federal legislation to implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. A House of Commons committee has completed its review Bill C-15 and forwarded the Bill for third and final reading. Meanwhile, the Senate has begun a pre-study to expedite the Bill’s passage through that Chamber. Regional Chief of the BC Assembly of First Nations Terry Teegee said, “Implementation of the UN Declaration in Canada has been a long time coming. I want to acknowledge all the hard work that has gone into getting us this far. And I want to encourage all Members of Parliament and all Senators to make every effort to ensure that Bill C-15 is passed into law before this session of Parliament ends.” Bill C-15 does not create new rights or alter existing rights. If adopted by Parliament, the Bill will establish an ongoing legal reQuirement for the federal government to work collaboratively with Indigenous peoples to implement the Declaration through law, policy and programs – and report publicly on the progress made. Cheryl Casimer of the First Nations Summit executive in BC said, “Bill C-15 is a way to continue the work that Indigenous peoples began at the United Nations all those years ago. Passage of this Bill is the best way to ensure that Canada will now carry out the critical work of actually putting these standards into practice.” In its recently concluded review of the Bill, the House of Commons Standing Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs adopted a number of clarifying amendments proposed by Indigenous peoples.
