Description
Focuses on two approaches to Aboriginal property rights and governance rights; conclusions are similar in relation to property and diverge regarding governance.
Concludes that four problems must be addressed: level of commitment to self-government by other governments, clear policy and process to achieve recognition for the purpose of negotiations, issues related to funding and other resources, and the need for mechanisms for longer term relations.
Explains that the Grand Council of the Crees of Quebec wished to stay in Canada in the event that Quebec seperated from Canada and questions how the Quebecers could deny the First Nations the very thing that they insist is theirs, self-determination.
