Creating choices : rethinking Aboriginal policy

Richards, John, 1944- (author., Author). C.D. Howe Institute. (Added Author).

Summary: "Canadians have undrtaken to assure the survival of Aboriginal governments and culture. As John Richards writes in this well researched review of Aboriginal policy, Canadians cannot and should not seek a return to an early twentieth-century view of aboriginal policy whereby native Canadians would be assimilated and their cutural distinctiveness all but ignored. This book explores pragmatic policy reforms that all levels of givernement-federal, provincial, and Aboriginal-should be pursuing." --
