Brianne Paulin at the Indigenous and Northern Affairs Committee

Thank you very much for the question.

Mr. Chair, if I may answer, there's an article in UNDRIP that provides for the recognition and upholding of treaties. The commissioner is, again, tied to section 35 and upholding modern treaties. It does, in fact, tend to uphold UNDRIP, because article 37 provides for the full implementation of treaties as well.
