This act was introduced at the end of September 2011 by Minister John Duncan despite being defeated three times previously with strong, unanimous opposition from First Nations communities and organizations across Canada. We also spoke to her about Bill C-10, the Harper government's tough-on-crime legislation, and the provision that imposes mandatory minimum sentences and removes judges' abilities to use discretion during sentencing.
