This Consensus Statement relating to Aboriginal Title and Rights was adopted by the Chiefs-in-Assembly in July 2011. It speaks to the continuing title and rights that we have to our lands and territories, and rejects Canada’s policy of denial that is embodied in its Comprehensive Claims Policy. Chiefs and leaders were invited to sign their names on this Consensus Statement when it was first adopted in July 2011 – others are now invited to add their names online.

FINALLY. This policy of denial has gone on way too long. Stand up for the rights that were always there.

Total respect for this. The way these lands have been treated is shameful.

Truth and justice for the people who were here first. Tired of all the excuses from Ottawa.

Its about time the government actually listened instead of just ignoring the real history here.

Long overdue. The laws need to change to reflect what is actually right.
