    Premier David Eby is meeting with First Nations leaders about the province's plans to amend the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA). First Nations have been opposed to changing the law, while the premier calls it a "non-negotiable." We spoke to to CBC provincial affairs reporter Katie DeRosa for the latest, speak to First Nations Summit political executive Robert Phillips, and take your calls to hear your thoughts on the issue.

    The Right Fit program, which helps wheelchair users find accessible housing, lost its funding yesterday. That loss of funding will force the program to close. A press conference is being held right now in Vancouver to bring attention to the program's loss. Disability advocates are warning that people could face homelessness or be pushed into unsafe or inappropriate living situations without programs like The Right Fit.

    We spoke to Spring Hawes, Accessibility & Inclusion Advisor.
