VICTORIA — A political analyst says British Columbia Premier David Eby faces a “moment of real peril” as legislators return to Victoria this week.

Eby has staked his government on plans to suspend sections of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act for up to three years.

The premier has told First Nations leaders in a recent meeting that he plans to introduce legislation to suspend the sections this week.
