AFN files Notice of Appearance to the Federal Court.
Canada files for judicial review with the Federal Court of the CHRT's rulings (2020 CHRT 20 and 2020 CHRT 36) on the groups of children eligible to receive services through Jordan's Principle.
Importantly, both 2020 CHRT 20 and 2020 CHRT 36 remain in place while the judicial review is underway. Canada must adhere to the Tribunal’s orders and provide services to children eligible under one of the four criteria, including children recognized by their Nation for the purposes of Jordan’s Principle, pending a decision from the Federal Court.
The CHRT releases 2020 CHRT 36 on the groups of children eligible to receive services through Jordan's Principle. The CHRT rules that cases meeting any one of the four criteria are eligible for consideration under Jordan's Principle. Those criteria are the following:
- The child is registered or eligible to be registered under the Indian Act, as amended from time to time;
- The child has one parent/guardian who is registered or eligible to be registered under the Indian Act;
- The child is recognized by their Nation for the purposes of Jordan’s Principle; or
- The child is ordinarily resident on reserve.
