UNDRIP - United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples

On June 23, 2023, Justice Canada released its Action Plan for implementing the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). However, there seem to be conflicting views on how this complex matter will be implemented in Canadian society, even within the Indigenous community. David Suzuki Foundation is promoting a view that we should plant reconciliation forests, give 'land back' sovereignty, and employ young people as land guardians, water guardians and fire keepers. Meanwhile, policy analyst Melissa Mbarki writes that First Nations was to develop energy and resource options, but the federal climate plan is in the way, and doesn't comply with UNDRIP. Some of these issues revolve around compensation; Thomas Flanagan has written a report on that for the Fraser Institute. Meanwhile, the Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE) has been denouncing grassroots Indigenous groups promoting energy projects like Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) as being proxies for industry. It turns out that CAPE was funded for $495,000 from the McConnell Foundation in 2022 for climate activism. Ever since then CAPE has been attacking LNG projects. An article in the Hill Times by two CAPE associates denounced Indigenous grassroots pro-LNG energy groups. It turns out that McConnell Foundation contributed $10,000,000 to a Blackrock Global Renewables Fund II in 2017 - so who is the proxy here? Looks like the 'pot is calling the kettle black.' The federal Justice department's UNDRIP Action Plan calls for all laws in Canada to be aligned with UNDRIP - yet few Canadians are even aware of this, let alone the potential sea change in our economy and democracy. This video raises these matters for public review. Find out more about Friends of Science: Providing Insight into Climate Change. http://www.friendsofscience.org/
