Description
Presents a case study that draws a portrait of forestry entrepreneurs, within the Ilnu community of Mashteuiatsh, and reveals the role played by the band council in developing forestry entrepreneurship in the community.
Produced as a result of dissatisfaction with the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs' engagement process for the development of proposed legislative framework for drinking water in First Nation communities. Looks at three types of water-related rights: water, self-government, and adequate levels of environment protection.
