Description
Looks at child adoption and unemployment programs and analyzes a western society agrarian rationale verses the Indigenous culture rationale based on hunting and gathering.
File contains a presentation by Chief Baptiste Cazon, who is concerned about poverty levels among Inuit, the lack of opportunities for young people and financial discrimination against pensioners. Cazon was on the Royal Commission when John Diefenbaker was Prime Minister and feels this Commission may be a wasted opportunity as well.
