From the Conservative Party of Canada Policy Declaration:

73. Land Title

i) The Conservative Party supports the development of a property regime that would encourage lending for private housing and businesses. This will promote economic opportunity and individual freedom.

ii) A Conservative Government, in conjunction with First Nations, would create a First Nations Land Ownership Act, which would transfer Reserve land title from the Federal Crown to willing First Nations.

74. Matrimonial Property

The Conservative Party supports, in conjunction with First Nations, the creation of a matrimonial property code to protect spouses and children in cases of marriage breakdown.

Congratulations to MP Helena Guergis and her caucus colleagues for exposing the hypocrisy of the Liberals and continuing to fight for native womens rights.
