121.1. To enable the application of measures ensuring that Aboriginal realities are taken into account, the Government may enter into an agreement on any matter within the scope of this Act or the regulations with an Aboriginal nation represented by all the band councils or northern village councils of the communities forming the nation, by the Makivik Corporation or by the Cree Nation Government, with an Aboriginal community represented by its band council, by its northern village council or by a group of communities so represented or, in the absence of such councils, with any other Aboriginal group.
Such an agreement has precedence over this Act and the regulations. However, a person covered by an agreement is exempt from the incompatible provisions of this Act or the regulations only to the extent that the person complies with the agreement.
An agreement entered into under this section must be tabled in the National Assembly within 30 days after it is signed or, if the Assembly is not sitting, within 30 days after resumption. It must also be published in the Gazette officielle du Québec.
