The Canadian government wants to make two new laws before the summer break. These laws are about clean water for First Nations and privacy for people.

加拿大政府希望在暑假前制定兩項新法規。這些法規涉及原住民的乾淨用水以及民眾的隱私權。

The government wants to give First Nations people clean water. An old law said clean water is a human right. The new law does not say this. It says the government will try to give clean water over time. Some leaders are unhappy because the government did not talk to them.

政府希望為原住民提供乾淨的用水。舊法規規定乾淨用水是一項基本人權，但新法規中並未提及。新法規僅表示政府將嘗試在一段時間內提供乾淨用水。部分領袖對此感到不滿，因為政府並未與他們諮詢。

Many First Nations communities still have bad water. People must boil their water before they drink it. The government wants to fix this problem.

許多原住民社區的水質依然堪憂。民眾在飲用前必須將水煮沸。政府希望解決這個問題。

The government also wants a new privacy law. This law protects the information of children. It also stops companies from using personal data to change prices for customers. The government tried to make this law two times before, but it did not work.

政府還希望制定新的隱私法規。該法規旨在保護兒童的資訊，並防止公司利用個人數據來調整對顧客的價格。政府此前曾兩次嘗試制定此法規，但均未成功。

The government will start these laws now. However, the leaders will talk more about them in the autumn.

政府現在將開始實施這些法規。然而，領導人們將在秋天進行更多討論。

The Canadian government plans to introduce two new laws before the summer break. These bills focus on improving water access for First Nations and updating privacy rules for the private sector.

加拿大政府計劃在夏季休會前引入兩項新法律。這些法案側重於改善原住民的用水情況，以及更新私營部門的隱私規則。

The first proposal concerns water infrastructure on First Nations lands. It follows a previous attempt, Bill C-61, which was created after a 2021 legal agreement. While the original bill stated that clean drinking water is a human right, the new version under Prime Minister Mark Carney changes this wording. Instead of a direct right, the law now describes it as a 'policy objective' to be achieved over time. This change happened despite earlier claims from Minister Mandy Gull-Masty that these rights would be protected. Furthermore, some First Nations leaders claim they were not consulted, and there are still 37 boil-water advisories in effect across 36 communities.

第一個提案涉及原住民土地上的水務基礎設施。這是繼之前的 C-61 法案之後的嘗試，該法案是根據 2021 年的一項法律協議制定的。雖然原法案聲明乾淨飲用水是一項人權，但在總理 Mark Carney 領導下的新版本更改了措辭。法律現在將其描述為一個隨時間逐步實現的「政策目標」，而非直接的權利。儘管部長 Mandy Gull-Masty 此前聲稱這些權利將受到保護，但此項更改依然發生。此外，部分原住民領袖聲稱他們未被諮詢，且目前在 36 個社區中仍有 37 項煮沸水公告生效。

At the same time, the government is making a third attempt to update the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. This new effort aims to protect the data of children and stop companies from using consumer data to set unfair prices. This follows two previous failed attempts in 2020 and 2023 to modernize how private companies handle personal information.

與此同時，政府正第三次嘗試更新《個人資訊保護與電子文件法》。此次努力旨在保護兒童數據，並防止公司利用消費者數據設定不公平的價格。在此之前，政府在 2020 年和 2023 年曾兩次嘗試將私營公司處理個人資訊的方式現代化，但均未成功。

The government is moving forward with these bills, but because of the timing, most of the debate and the final voting will likely happen during the autumn session.

政府正推進這些法案，但由於時間關係，大部分辯論與最終投票很可能在秋季議會期間進行。

The Canadian government intends to introduce two legislative instruments prior to the summer parliamentary recess, focusing on First Nations water access and the modernization of privacy regulations.

加拿大政府擬在議會夏季休會前推出兩項立法工具，重點關注原住民的用水問題與隱私法規的現代化。

The proposed legislation regarding water infrastructure on First Nation lands represents a successor to Bill C-61, a 2023 initiative developed under the Trudeau administration following a 2021 legal settlement. While Bill C-61 explicitly affirmed the human right to clean drinking water—a provision that encountered opposition from the provinces of Alberta and Ontario due to perceived threats to resource development—the current draft under Prime Minister Mark Carney modifies this language. The new text shifts from an explicit affirmation of a human right to a policy objective aimed at the 'progressive realization' of such rights, aligned with the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. This linguistic attenuation occurs despite prior assertions by Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty regarding the affirmation of these rights. Furthermore, reports indicate a lack of consultation with certain First Nations leaders, while Indigenous Services Canada maintains that 37 boil-water advisories persist across 36 communities.

關於原住民土地水務基礎設施的擬議立法，是 C-61 法案的繼任者。C-61 法案是 2023 年在杜魯多政府領導下，根據 2021 年的法律和解而推出的計畫。雖然 C-61 法案明確肯定擁有乾淨飲用水是一項人權——但此條款因被認為會威脅資源開發，而遭到亞伯塔省與安大略省的反對——但在現任總理馬克·卡尼領導下的草案中，修改了這些措辭。新文本將「明確肯定人權」改為一個旨在「逐步實現」此類權利的政策目標，以符合《經濟、社會及文化權利國際公約》。儘管原住民服務部長 Mandy Gull-Masty 先前聲稱會肯定這些權利，但措辭依然被弱化。此外，有報告指出部分原住民領袖未參與諮詢，而加拿大原住民服務部則表示，36 個社區仍存在 37 個煮沸水通知。

Concurrent with the water legislation, the administration has signaled the introduction of a third attempt to amend the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. This legislative effort seeks to establish protections for the data of minors and implement prohibitions against the utilization of consumer data for surveillance pricing. This follows two previous unsuccessful attempts in 2020 and 2023 to update private-sector privacy frameworks.

與水務立法同時進行的是，政府暗示將第三次嘗試修訂《個人資訊保護與電子文件法》。此次立法努力旨在為未成年人的數據建立保護機制，並禁止利用消費者數據進行監控定價。此前在 2020 年與 2023 年曾兩次嘗試更新私營部門的隱私框架，但均未成功。

The government is proceeding with the introduction of these bills, although the timing suggests that substantive debate and enactment will be deferred until the autumn session.

政府正著手推出這些法案，但時間表顯示，實質性的辯論與通過將遞延至秋季議會會議。
