Does anyone know what the assembly wanted out of these negotiations? The article talks about how they say its not enough but doesn't really provide specifics.

Bit early yet for the minutes, but they should get posted here:

It seems that they have problems with the entire process, and want to restart on more equitable terms.

"This resolution speaks to the desired process that we see as path forward to getting the final settlement agreement back on track, to address the flaws identified by regions across the country and to create fairer, more equitable, more open, transparent process," Khelsilem, council chairperson of the Squamish Nation in B.C., told the assembly.

The resolution directs the AFN executive committee to establish a national Children's Chiefs Commission with regional representation to provide direction and oversight of the long-term reform agreement negotiations.

It also directs the AFN to postpone any votes on settlement agreements until all First Nations have had at least 90 days to review them.

Thanks for the read.

Really the most important part of the story and it’s missing.
