How do Canada's new laws help native peoples preserve their culture?

Answer 1

They have many government funded agencies and programs to protect First Nations People including Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Canada Development From their web page:

Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada(AANDC) supports Aboriginal people (First Nations, Inuit and Métis) and Northerners in their efforts to:

• improve social well-being and economic prosperity;
• develop healthier, more sustainable communities; and
• participate more fully in Canada's political, social and economic development - to the benefit of all Canadians.

AANDC is one of the federal government departments responsible for meeting the Government of Canada's obligations and commitments to First Nations, Inuit and Métis, and for fulfilling the federal government's constitutional responsibilities in the North.AANDC's responsibilities are largely determined by numerous statutes, negotiated agreements and relevant legal decisions. Most of the Department's programs, representing a majority of its spending - are delivered through partnerships with Aboriginal communities and federal-provincial or federal-territorial agreements. AANDC also works with urban Aboriginal people, Métis and Non-Status Indians.

The Canadian government spends lots of money, billions, but success of these actions is very questionable.

Treaty rights include the right to racial segregated communities and many other special rights determined by race. Most Canadians believe that a persons race should not determine their access to Canadian programs, rights, resources, money or support.

Hundreds of Billions of dollars have been spent on the less than 1 million treaty aboriginals in Canada and the results have been an ongoing disaster that has not brought people out of poverty or into the cultural mix that is Canada.

What does the Canadian government do to protect First Nations? If it is to protect them from achieving the full benefits of Canada, of being part of a great multicultural country, then they do and achieve a lot.

If it is to protect them from technology, from modern society, the question must be asked why anyone would think that acceptable. Segregating people by race or forcing some to live as hunter/gathers should be offensive to all peoples.
