  • OTTAWA — The government hopes to sign a memorandum of understanding in the new year to settle a Quebec Algonquin First Nation's lawsuit claiming the land under Parliament Hill, HuffPost Canada has learned.

    The claim surrounds a stretch of land along the Ontario side of the Ottawa River known as the Kichi Sibi Lands.

    Kitigan Zibi Chief Jean-Guy Whiteduck filed the lawsuit in , claiming the federal and Ontario governments developed the land taken without Indigenous consent, and also economically benefited from it.

    "You know, people don't like it that the Parliament buildings are on stolen land. Like, what other word can you call it? It's been stolen," explained Algonquin elder Albert Dumont in an interview. "Nobody ever gave it up."

    The band is seeking title recognition on behalf of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation over the land. It also wants financial restitution and acknowledgement from governments for "unjustified infringement" that has taken place.

Host Althia Raj brings his concerns to Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Carolyn Bennett to talk about how land claims are testing the Liberals' promise to build a nation-to-nation relationship.

Minister Lametti even stated in an interview for a recent investigative documentary ofCBC's The Fifth Estate, which revealed troubling components of the current MAID practice, that the Supreme Court had recognized 'a right to suicide' and that MAID was a 'species of suicide'. He made similar statements in an interview for a podcast with Althia Raj of the Toronto Star. With some colleagues of other law faculties, we drafted a letter to Prime Minister Trudeau, Ministers Lametti, Duclos, Qualtrough and Bennett, to challenge this problematic and in our view unfounded rhetoric of 'our hands are tied by the courts'.
