After doing a bit of digging and research, it looks like any #60sScoop survivors from the Yukon, NT, and Nunavut won't be able to file against their respective Territories for any kind of abuse they may have suffered.
The Territories were under jurisdiction of Ottawa and INAC until Devolution in 1967. The department responsible for CFS was not turned over to the Territorial Government until 1985.
Part of the #60sScoop agreement says by taking the settlement, you are not able to continue any further legal action against Canada in any manner.
This is a problem for anyone who was taken from the Territories, since they were still under jurisdiction of INAC at the time.
