How Canada can advance Indigenous rights through trade agreements

Our engagement with CPTPP partners can further strengthen Indigenous rights, especially if we bring in Taiwan and other states which recognize the rights of Indigenous peoples in their territories.

Then-Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto, then-U.S. president Donald Trump, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are pictured during the Nov. 30, 2018 signing ceremony for the new NAFTA. Moving forward, Canada should include Indigenous representation in negotiations and ensure that all agreements, as a minimum standard, protect Indigenous treaty rights, writes Scott Simon.

Happy travels, Canada, and Happy Canada Day

OpinionBY EDITORIAL
  • There is a heightened sense of Canadian pride this year and millions of Canadians are showing Americans what they think of Trump's global trade war with a multi-billion dollar travel ban. Canadians may not wave the flag like our Americans neighbours do, and we will never call ourselves patriots, but we do show our pride in other ways. Happy travels, Canada, and Happy Canada Day.
