First Nations leaders want Quebec to drop plans for Indigenous language law

Indigenous Peoples are calling on the Coalition Avenir Québec government to
scrap plans to table legislation to protect First Nation languages and
culture...“Let us recall that by virtue of their inherent right to
self-government, First Nations elect their own government and have the
legitimacy to adopt their own laws,” the council said. “Anything related to
their languages and cultures remains under the purview of First Nations
themselves.”
