Biigtigong Nishnaabeg have an outstanding Aboriginal Title land claim.
Until such a time as the Biigtigong Nishnaabeg land claim is resolved Biigtigong Nishnaabeg cannot support changes to the mining act. Mining claims on Biigtigong Nishnaabeg lands of cultural significance need to be removed to allow Biigtigong to move forward as a sovereign nation.
See the attached letter.

Furthermore, Biigtigong Nishnaabeg cannot support changes to the energy act until such a time that the province via the IESO deals with us on our energy projects in a fair manner given our rights within our territory.
