Description
Discussion of urbanization and the limitations of services to off-reserve people. Argues that past policies and programs have not met with real success.
Discusses three misconceptions: that there is a large migration taking place from reserves and rural areas to urban centres, that once in these centres they become members of an impoverished ghetto, and that Aboriginals face huge challenges in building culture and community in urban settings.
