Drinking Water Class Action Eligibility:
The class action settlement does not compensate all First Nations and their members who have suffered from unsafe or inadequate drinking water. Only those First Nations
who were subject to a drinking water advisory for longer than one year on centralized systems (water treatment plants) between November 20, 1995, and June 20, 2021, are eligible for compensation. Ermineskin Cree Nation did not experience a drinking water advisory longer than a year on its water treatment plan during this period, which means Ermineskin members are not eligible for compensation under the class action settlement.
