B.C. Premier David Eby says he shared plans to put a “temporary pause on a number of sections” of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, known as DRIPA, for up to three years in a meeting Thursday morning with First Nations leaders.

“What he’s proposing now is to amend DRIPA to put the provisions he’s concerned about on hold for up to three years” or until the Supreme Court of Canada hears two major court cases related to DRIPA and Aboriginal title.
