Documents & Presentations
Description
This file contains a presentation by Fran Williams that begins with a brief history of the Native communication organization. Williams states that "Native broadcasting is essential for the preservation of our language and culture." She recommends that Inuktitut and other major Aboriginal languages should receive recognition in the Broadcast Act as official languages. Williams calls on the Commission to ensure funding continues for this important organization that actively works to keep the Inuktitut language from extinction.
