Student support Idle No More movements

Last January 26 2013 in Victoria, BC. , Canadian Federation of Students will join today's demonstrations at the legislature to support the Idle No More Movement which calls on the honour Aboriginal treaty rights including the right to self-govern.

"The Canadian Federation of Students-BC recognizes the right to self-determination of all First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples in Canada," said Katie Marocchi, Chairperson of the Canadian Federation of Students-BC (CFS-BC). "Legislation such as Bill C-45 undermines Aboriginal and treaty rights and should be condemned."

The Canadian Federation of Students-BC passed a resolution of support for the Idle No More movement and endorse the petition opposing Bill C-45. The bill makes changes to land provisions in the Indian Act and weakens protections for natural resources in Canada including fresh water. 

And they also passed several resolutions outlining calls for action in partnership with local Aboriginal groups to oppose the legislated attacks on Aboriginal and treaty rights.
