The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples

Canada endorsed the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) in 2016, and in 2021 passed Federal legislation to implement it. Several provinces also have implementation legislation, while others remain hesitant.
This expert panel draws upon their varied roles in Indigenous and state governments, in academia and international bodies, to address questions such as: Why is UNDRIP relevant for reconciliation? What are the flashpoint issues and are they really game-stoppers? What does ‘Free, Prior and Informed Consent’ mean? What are the political costs of failing to implement UNDRIP? Why are some provinces standing back while others step forward? What do we know about best practices for successful implementation?
Speakers:
Senator Brent Cotter, Q.C.
Brenda Gunn
Pamela Palmater, PhD
Constance MacIntosh (chair)

We want to register historical injustice suffered by the Indigenous Peoples of the Philippines i.e. Mindanao. We want that our traditional lands be return to us stolen from us through a Bugos court decision during the World Pacific War 2 1941 by clerk of court without a name only his signature. Thank you and God bless the United Nation in helping the IPs ICCs in the Philippines in Mindanao.
