Description

"The ultimate objective of the First Nations Property Ownership Act is to support the aspirations of First Nations people: to assist them to unlock the tremendous economic potential of First Nations land. ..." That's a quote from Tom Flanagan's "Beyond the Indian Act." I think it sounds nice; supporting our aspirations, unlocking our potential. Though I had to ask myself if it was really my aspiration, or that of my people, to unlock the economic potential of our land. Do we want to develop what little land we have left? Do we want to extract resources and lease or sell land? Are these our aspirations as Native people?
