Mandy Gull-Masty
Matched by name against the article text.
Key figures
Across Canada, 516 First Nations have joined a campaign supporting Bill S-2 and, specifically, the end to the second generation cut-off.
In 2025, the federal government rushed Bill C-5 – its major projects legislation – through to become law in just 20 days.

Both the House of Commons and Senate need to agree on the final version of Bill S-2 before it can become law.
May 28 was the last time the House of Commons Indigenous and Northern Affairs Committee discussed Bill S-2.
