Contract Type FiledApril 6th, 2022In 2016, the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal (“CHRT”) found that Canada was discriminating against First Nations children, youth, and families in its First Nation Child and Family Services (FNCFS) program and its implementation of Jordan’s Principle. On December 31, 2021, Canada and the other Parties to the CHRT proceeding signed an Agreement-in-Principle (“AIP”) in which Canada committed to long-term reform of its FNCFS program and its implementation of Jordan’s Principle. Further to the AIP, the Parties are currently negotiating a Final Settlement Agreement (“FSA”) to resolve the CHRT proceeding. NAN is developing an FSA Team to continue and complete the FSA negotiation process.
