Scope and content | File contains a presentation by Serge Lefebrve, representative of the Central Council for Northwest Quebec, CNTU, an affiliated body of the Confederation of National Trade Unions. Lefebrve discusses his labour organizations relationship with the Cree and Algonquin peoples of Northwestern Quebec, a relationship he recounts as beginning in a common front to defeat a plan to store PCBs in the region. Lefebrve discusses the work his organization did with First Nations regarding Hydro Quebec development in Northern Quebec, and how they have acted as a facilitator to help bring Aboriginal concerns to the table of the regional economic development authority. Following Lefebrve's presentation Commissioner Rene Dussault discusses some of the issues raised with him. | |
