Thank you.
In the Yukon Umbrella Final Agreement, we have a dispute resolution mechanism. Unfortunately, all parties have to agree to initiate it. This is why it has never been used. A modern treaty commissioner would help bridge any differences between the Crown and Yukon first nations so that we can work out those differences.
We took Canada to court in 2018, when the judge came down and ruled. It can't be one-sided. It can't just be the Crown and Canada saying take it or leave it. It has to be true negotiations in good faith. I think the modern treaty commissioner would help be a bridge so that both sides can meet and come to a common ground that we can agree upon. Then we can avoid going to court and work this out nation to nation.
