How will First Nations, provinces and territories be engaged in the proposed legislative process?
In winter 2009, INAC will undertake engagement sessions with First Nations, regional First Nation organizations, and provincial/territorial officials. Participants at the engagement sessions will be able to discuss and provide input on the elements of a proposed federal legislative framework for drinking water and wastewater in First Nation communities, based on the federal government’s proposed approach of incorporating by reference provincial/territorial regulations and adapting them, as required, to meet the needs of First Nation communities.
