The Claim
This lawsuit contends that the Government of Canada has deliberately separated First Nations children from their families, communities, and cultural roots. By doing so, Canada has violated the rights of First Nations to raise their own children, preserve their languages, and pass on their spiritual and cultural traditions. The case seeks justice for the loss of culture, language, and spirituality inflicted through decades of systemic racism and cultural harm.
The Class
This is an opt-in class action, meaning that only those First Nations bands that choose to participate will be included. Every First Nation across Canada is invited to join this collective pursuit of justice and accountability.
Partners
