In February 2017, Prime Minister Trudeau named Wilson-Raybould chair of the Working Group of Ministers on the Review of Laws and Policies Related to Indigenous Peoples, a Cabinet working group responsible for reviewing federal laws and policies that impact the rights of Indigenous peoples.[47] Through consultation with Indigenous groups and experts, the Working Group adopted Principles respecting the Government of Canada's relationship with Indigenous peoples to guide their work. Those Principles were released on July 14, 2017,[48] and have been the subject of considerable commentary.[49] Wilson-Raybould authored an op-ed on the subject in The Globe and Mail[50] and devoted a major speech to the Assembly of First Nations Annual General Assembly to the Principles and their importance.[51]
