Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence wants opposition parties and supporters to sign a 13-point declaration demanding immediate improvements to housing and schools on reserves.
A draft of the declaration has been obtained by The Canadian Press.
It lays out the conditions for resolving her liquids-only protest that has thrown the Ottawa-First Nations relationship into disarray
for the last six weeks.
The draft declaration also says treaties should be fully implemented within five years and demands a thorough review of two
Conservative government omnibus bills that dramatically changed environmental oversight.
Spence and her team are in the midst of delicate negotiations with chiefs and opposition parties on the final wording of the
declaration and sources say agreement has not yet been reached.
