On my read, I think it would be reasonable to suggest that this bill is very much about the self-determination of specific collectivities and governments that are component parts of the Métis peoples. Through their non-derogation language, some of the other amendments are trying to clarify that the rights of other Métis collectivities that have not mandated these governments to represent their rights continue to be protected and are not impacted by this bill.
