NationTalk – Announced expanded eligibility under Jordan’s Principle to children who are recognized as members by their nation regardless of where they live in Canada on an ongoing basis. This work is as a direct response to the July and November 2020 CHRT orders regarding Jordan’s Principle eligibility, which Canada has been fully implementing since November 25, 2020. They have however asked for a judicial review of some aspects where the government still relies on Indian Act regulations and still wants to have some control over who “belongs to a First Nations community”.
