Neither does the UN, although Canada has state sponsored the new UN relabelling and redefinition of indigenous people.
The only government you should deal with is the PMO. We wrote the last PMO and demanded that the AFN first Nations have no involvement in our lives. We declared our indigenous status and denied AFN first Nations claims to us. Trudeau apparently shared the letter. The rest is history; 2010 terror attack, the Canada state sponsored UN redefinition and relabelling of indigenous people assimilation and appropriation, the Canada law making genetic history illegal, the AFN first nations taking over of health care monies, etc.
So, we said no. Maybe this is why people say yes.
