Department of Kitchen Sinks

Could somebody tell me what the hell this has to do with 'Foreign Affairs'? Don't we already have a Department of Indian and Northern Affairs? Why do we need two departments in the federal bottomless pit government chasing the same soccer ball?

"The government's approach, rather than advancing the process of reconciliation between the Crown and the Treaty 8 First Nations, undermined it," Justice Ian Binnie wrote in the unanimous decision.

Yes, that's our caring Libs, photo-op grandstanding one day, without a release from further actions, and screwing it up royally the next.
