December 13, 2022
Hon. Mary Jane McCallum
Honourable senators, I give notice that, at the next sitting of the Senate, I will move:
That the Standing Senate Committee on Indigenous Peoples be authorized to examine and report on the misrepresentation of Indigenous ancestry, inadequate self‑identification standards and the profound effects that such identity fraud has on further marginalizing Indigenous people, in particular Indigenous women; and
That the committee submit its final report no later than December 31, 2023.
