Mr. Speaker, the Liberals talk about being concerned about transparency. They and the minister just spent three days at AFN meetings. The word “transparency” and how we can be accountable to the membership did not come up once.
According to Karen McCarthy:
And the system where we file grievances and allegations to INAC [Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada] — it doesn't really go anywhere.
Further, we heard from Charmaine Stick:
They (INAC and AFN) need to help us. We need help instead of taking our own leadership to court.
It has been over a year now. They have done nothing. When will the minister put actions to those words and show these women some respect?
