The most recent episode of The Every Lawyer, a podcast series of the Canadian Bar Association, features Professor Naiomi Metallic of Dalhousie University in Halifax discussing Bill C-92, an Act respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis children, youth and families:
"An in-depth look at Bill C-92, an Act respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis children, youth and families, with Professor Naiomi Metallic, which turns into a broader discussion on legislative reconciliation and the ‘braiding together’ of existing legal orders."
"For those interested in advocacy, Prof. Metallic also makes the case for academia as THE place to change the law, and with it, society (...)"
"Professor Naiomi Metallic, divides her time between practice and teaching at Dalhousie University’s Schulich School of Law where she holds the Chancellor’s Chair in Aboriginal Law and Policy. She was part of the legal team that intervened on behalf of the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society led by Cindy Blackstock, a longtime advocate for child welfare and Indigenous children’s rights. The SCC referenced Prof. Metallic’s article, Aboriginal Rights, Legislative Reconciliation and Constitutionalism (dal.ca) , in their Reference re An Act respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis children, youth and families, and she is this year’s winner of the CBA’s Ramon John Hnatyshyn Award for Law."
