Fundamentally, this bill is telling first nations governments how to disclose information. That's not the case with provinces, territories. They have made their own rules. In fact, if you look at Quebec, public sector salaries are considered personal information; they're not disclosed. In Ontario they only disclose the salaries of those who earn more than $100,000. In British Columbia it's anyone earning over $75,000. Governments make their own choices about how information is handled.
Do you think first nations have any rights in making the choices about how the information about their financial matters is handled?
