The president of the Sudbury NDP's electoral district association says in a letter that it is time for the ruling Liberals to comply with a Canadian Human Rights Tribunal about delivering children's services on reserves. Supplied photo.

I am asking the Liberal Government to comply with the historic ruling of the Canadian Humans Rights Tribunal ordering the end of discrimination against First Nations children. 

Since the order from the Tribunal, there have been two compliance orders to compel the Liberals to act on delivering of child services on reserves.

The Liberals are fighting this ruling in court instead of listening to the Tribunal and the Indigenous people to fix this problem. This was an election promise to help all Indigenous people across Canada, and it has not been done.

I am asking the Liberal government to fulfill the orders immediately and end the discrimination against First Nation children.
