Replying to Lori Idlout (Liberal)

“Uqaqtittiji, I would like to thank the minister for her excellent presentation and for explaining very clearly why this bill is so important. I wonder if she could share with us what this means for the people who will be impacted by this legislation and why it is so important for them to be able to enact their own legislation.”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 120 wordsfirst and foremost, I think it is important to note that the self-government agreement is legislated under the Constitution: ¹their legal authority to pass their own laws, to set up their own elections and to protect their culture. The first self-government agreement was the Déline Final Self-Government Agreement.² It will be having its 10th year anniversary this year, ³and we have really seen how incredibly important it has been in the community of Déline.⁴ I really look forward to seeing the Tłegǫ́hłı̨ Got’įnę’s self-governance as it continues to grow in the community of Norman Wells. There is the opportunity to also consider moving to the indigenous public governance. However, at this stage, it is not looking to have that authority.Partly on point
