Thank you. To answer the question in relation to UNDRIP, the advocacy for the CMTI began long before UNDRIP was signed. It is not directly tied to Canada's UNDRIP responsibilities.
Canada's signing and implementing this international instrument was a positive step forward for the recognition of the rights of all indigenous people. UNDRIP provides the floor, not the ceiling, when it comes to the state's recognition of indigenous rights. UNDRIP builds upon section 35 of the Constitution, which already protects the modern treaty.
That's basically it, in a nutshell.
