My perspective is only that, my perspective. Basically, there are two connections that I am aware of between the queer communities and indigenous communities here. The other is the non-indigenous queers who are involved in supporting indigenous sovereignty. As far as I know, it is mostly an relationship between some non-native individual queers and native movements, rather than a relationship between queer communities and native communities per se. Response here has been mixed.
Some people feel it is a real step forward.
Others think it's empty words. It is certainly very cautious, as the government doesn't want to admit any legal liability, which could translate into financial liability depending on the outcome of the many lawsuits that are pending. There are a number of writers who are very important. I am most familiar with female writers, as that was my primary community before I started the process of the sex change - I don't yet know much about the queer male communities here. That is a HUGE question that I will try to answer somewhat concisely.
