*I think Eby's the current, problematic BC politician in Premier power role. The core problem is that #BCNDP haven't really respected #IndigenousRights for a long time. Their caucus became too whipped under Horgan & that's continued under Eby - who was groomed by the former neoliberal in charge of BC policies.*
Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs says the NDP has a “colossal” leadership problem, and if it doesn’t move on from Premier David Eby, the party could be doomed for decades. “I think the problem is Premier Eby,” he said at a Friday morning news conference in Vancouver held by Indigenous leaders opposed to a proposed suspension of parts of the Declaration on the Rights of #IndigenousPeoples Act (DRIPA).
Phillip spoke alongside the #FirstNations Leadership Council, which is made up of members of the B.C. Assembly of First Nations, the First Nations Summit and the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs. The groups held a joint news conference in Vancouver on Friday (April 10), slamming the B.C. NDP government’s DRIPA suspension plan, a move the council had called a “unilateral betrayal” on Thursday. #DRIPA is a 2019 B.C. law that formally commits the province to aligning its laws with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples ( #UNDRIP ), which affirms the right to #SelfDetermination for #Indigenous peoples worldwide.
