The Ontario Government's hearings on the far north act begin today.
Nishnawbe Aski Nation Grand Chief Stan Beardy want the hearings rescheduled so they can have time to translate the legislation.
"All we are saying is that if you can consider coming in July or August that would be wonderful," says Beardy. "We're panicking because we're just not prepared to have quality input into the process."
The far north act recently passed second reading with a third scheduled for this fall.
