Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Alberta has not been a responsible steward of our water. No Blackfoot nation has ever accepted Alberta's assertion of control over water on our lands, and no court has confirmed that Alberta has any jurisdiction over our water on our reserve lands. In fact, in 2006, an expert report commissioned by the Government of Canada concluded that water on reserve lands could not be governed by provincial water laws due to subsection 91(24) of the Constitution Act.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Go ahead, Clayton.
