Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples: Presentation by Lisa Maracle, Pine Tree Friendship Centre of Brant, Brantford, Ontario

This file contains a presentation by Lisa Maracle focusing on taxation of Aboriginal people. She states that the Indian Act directs that there be no taxation for Aboriginal people, yet the federal government is taxing Aboriginals. Maracle also says that the current federal government anti-racism program that advertises on radio, television and in print has not been successful in combating racism. A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation.
