Indigenous Affairs
During question period on Indigenous Affairs, Jenny Kwan of the NDP said the government is sidelining Bill S-2, a bill to end sex- and race-based discrimination and the second-generation cut-off in Indian Act registration, despite a court deadline, UN calls, and support from First Nations; she asked the Prime Minister to meet First Nations women leaders and pass the bill. Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty replied that the bill is before committee for study, welcomed input, and said the government is working with groups across the country to remove barriers to First Nations registration.Written by AI from the debate.
