Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples: Presentation by Rosemary Brown, Committee Against Racism

This file contains a presentation by Rosemary Brown focusing on education, the First Nations Chartered Lands Act and the Lubicon Lake Cree land claim. Education funding cutbacks are threatening to close the Plains Indian Cultural Survival School, an important facility for Aboriginal youth education in Calgary. The Lands Act will empower Chiefs and Council to request that reserve lands by privatized and available for mortgages, and Brown requests that the Act be scrapped. Brown also addresses the Lubicon Lake Cree land claim and the social consequences of imposed multinational resource development on Lubicon lands.
