Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples: Presentation by Tony John, Glenwood Band

Alternate Title
Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples - Transcriptions of Public Hearings and Round Table Discussions
File contains a presentation by Tony John of the Glenwood Indian Band. John discusses the history of his people in Newfoundland, stating that they are not just Micmac but intermarried with the Beothuk and have been systematically neglected by both the federal and provincial governments who claim there are no Aboriginal people on the island. John discusses some of the issues his people face in central Newfoundland, the key one being the need for recognition. Following his presentation Commissioners Erasmus and Dussault discuss some of these issues with him including the relation of the Glenwood Band to the Conne River Micmac people in Cape Breton.
