Description
Examines Roque Roldán Ortiga’s six criteria for judging the quality of a particular land and resources rights regime with regards to Indigenous governments; and looks at how those criteria can be used to measure the degree to which Aboriginal peoples in Canada have been successful with their struggle to have of their land, resource and other rights recognized.
Looks at development of two complementary governance structures: self-rule and shared rule. The Inuit approach has involved negotiating land claims agreements and in some cases, establishing amalgamated regional governments to administer programs; the Sámi approach has involved establishment of Sámediggi national parliament.
Submitted to the Canadian Federal Government to ensure that the Inuit are involved in any Arctic strategies that would affect their destinies. Seven themes are explored, as well as key pressures and key risks.
