About this case

A class action brought by approximately 260 First Nations alleged that the federal government failed to ensure access to clean drinking water on reserves. The matter settled in 2021, but representatives now allege that the government has not adequately consulted affected communities or fulfilled settlement-related commitments concerning legislation, and they may return to court.
