A court-ordered injunction is being sought by nine Ontario First Nations to prevent the federal and provincial governments from using recently passed legislation to expedite infrastructure initiatives.

The injunction was requested as First Nations are set to meet with Prime Minister Mark Carney on July 17 to discuss the major projects law.
