Tory Leader Pierre Poilievre says his party will oppose federal ratification of a treaty approved in B.C. with the K’ómoks First Nation that recognizes self-government, resource, and land rights.
Poilievre said the treaty raises concerns about private property rights and ties into broader issues with B.C. and Canada’s implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
