Huu-ay-aht Elected Chief Councillor speaks in support of Bill C-10

Posted on by Huu-ay-aht Communications

Today, Thursday, February 26, Elected Chief Councillor Sayaač̓atḥ, John Alan Jack, addressed the Parliamentary Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs. His message was clear: it’s time for a Modern Treaty Commissioner (Bill C-10).

After 15 years of the Maa-nulth Final Agreement, federal implementation remains inconsistent. By implementing a Modern Treaty Commissioner, we hope to provide impartial oversight across the whole federal government. Bill C-10 ensures that the thousands of obligations in the Maa-nulth Final Agreement are met.

“Together, we can deliver the results that modern treaties were meant to enable and enoble.” — Chief Councillor Sayaač̓atḥ, John Alan Jack.
