As an Indigenous National, my inherent rights, along with the rights of my children and future generations, are under attack due to Ontario's 'Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act.' This legislation undermines the sovereignty of Indigenous Nations, disregarding our sacred ties to the land and our right to make decisions about its use.

The 'Unleashing Our Economy Act' has disrupted the balance between economic development and the stewardship responsibilities that Indigenous communities have upheld for generations. This act facilitates arbitrary decisions regarding land use, resource extraction, and environmental management without proper consultation with Indigenous peoples, whose lives and culture are directly affected.

Simcoe North MPP Jill Dunlop has the political power and responsibility to take a stand for justice and reconciliation. We call on her to introduce a Bill to repeal this harmful act, as a step towards respecting Indigenous Nations' Internationally and Constitutionally protected inherent rights. If MPP Dunlop cannot support the repeal, We Demand! she resign as her current stance disrespects not only Indigenous peoples but also undermines the Rule of Law and trust in political leadership dedicated to equitable governance.

Simcoe North, Dunlop's riding is within the Chippewa Tri Council Territory of Upper Canada Treaties, Penetanguishene Purchase #5, Lake Simcoe Purchase #16, and Nottawasaga Purchase #18 a total of 250,000 acres. These Treaties have are an outstanding historical grievance in which MPP Jill Dunlop is in a conflict of interest by her vote to support the enacting of this legislation 

Research from various Indigenous advocacy organizations, highlights that impactful economic policies must be built on a foundation of mutual respect and collaboration. Policies like the 'Unleashing Our Economy Act' perpetrate a historical pattern of neglect, which disregards indigenous voices and rights.

Sign the petition to show your support for the recognition of Indigenous sovereignty and to press for the repeal of Ontario's 'Unleashing Our Economy Act.'
