Can Metis settlement put members names on maps?
• Under the Metis Settlements Land Registry Regulation, the names of persons to whom settlement land has been allocated are recorded in the Land Registry. Section 68 of that Regulation allows any person to pay a fee and examine and obtain copies of documents in the Registry. Records made from information in the Settlements Land Registry (including maps) would be excluded from the scope of the FOIP Act (section 4(1)(l)(vii)).
