Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty delays ending the second-generation cutoff rule, citing need for broad consultation.
Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty signaled a cautious approach to ending the second-generation cutoff rule for First Nations status, emphasizing the need for broad consultations with First Nations leaders and communities before any legislative changes.
While the Assembly of First Nations and the Senate have shown strong support for repealing the rule, Gull-Masty noted the complexity of achieving consensus, as not all chiefs participate in AFN meetings.
The federal government continues to prioritize dialogue and evidence-based decision-making, with no immediate policy shifts announced.
Meanwhile, $4.8 million in funding was allocated to support Indigenous economic development in Northwestern Ontario, including projects for energy sustainability and business planning.
