- Proposal text
- WHEREAS the agreement was never made in consultation with Indigenous peoples and that any revenues earned from the sale of these natural resources has never benefited their communities,\n\nBE IT RESOLVED THAT the Green Party of Canada calls on the federal government to rescind the Natural Resources Transfer Act.
- Type of Proposal
- Public policy that the party would represent
- Objective / Benefit
- The 94 Calls to Action recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission calls on the government to “reconcile Aboriginal and Crown constitutional and legal orders to ensure that Aboriginal peoples are full partners in Confederation.” Moreover, one of the principles upheld by UNDRIP is Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), which requires that resources used on lands traditionally stewarded by Indigenous peoples cannot be developed without participation and consultation with the Indigenous population. The Natural Resources Transfer Act is in clear violation of UNDRIP and ignores the 94 Calls to Action and recommendations made in the 1996 Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples.

- Texte de la proposition
- ACTION QUE l'accord n'a jamais été conclu en consultation avec les peuples autochtones et que les revenus tirés de la vente de ces ressources naturelles n'ont jamais bénéficié à leurs communautés,\n\nIL EST RÉSOLU QUE le Parti vert du Canada demande au gouvernement fédéral d'abroger la Loi sur le transfert des ressources naturelles.
- Type de proposition
- Politique publique que le parti représenterait
- Objectif / Bénéfice
- Les 94 appels à l'action recommandés par la Commission de vérité et de réconciliation demandent au gouvernement de \"réconcilier les ordres constitutionnels et juridiques des Autochtones et de la Couronne pour faire en sorte que les peuples autochtones soient des partenaires à part entière dans la Confédération.\" En outre, l'un des principes défendus par la DNUDPA est le consentement préalable, libre et éclairé (CPLE), qui exige que les ressources utilisées sur les terres traditionnellement gérées par les peuples autochtones ne puissent être exploitées sans la participation et la consultation de la population autochtone. La loi sur le transfert des ressources naturelles est en violation flagrante de la DNUDPA et ignore les 94 appels à l'action et les recommandations formulées par la Commission royale sur les peuples autochtones de 1996.

Proposal text
The Green Party of Canada calls on the federal government to rescind the Natural Resources Transfer Acts, and open a consultation with Indigenous Nations who have an interest in the Natural Resources in their territories.
Type of Proposal
Public policy that the party would represent
Objective / Benefit
The 94 Calls to Action recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission calls on the government to “reconcile Aboriginal and Crown constitutional and legal orders to ensure that Aboriginal peoples are full partners in Confederation.” Moreover, one of the principles upheld by UNDRIP is Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), which requires that resources used on lands traditionally stewarded by Indigenous peoples cannot be developed without participation and consultation with the Indigenous population. The Natural Resources Transfer Act is in clear violation of UNDRIP and ignores the 94 Calls to Action and recommendations made in the 1996 Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples.
