Scope and contentFile contains a copy of Jim Harding's report, "Aboriginal Rights and Government Wrongs: Uranium Mining and Neocolonialism in Northern Saskatchewan," Series: In the Public Interest (Working Paper No.1) Pub. by Prairie Justice Research, 1988. This report begins with an excellent overview of Sask. nuclear mining sites and their potential. He shows that most of the inquiries into uranium mining in Northern Sask. only addressed how to proceed, not if. First Nations rights and concerns were virtually ignored. The motivation "is based on exploitation and oppression through both economic coercion and manufactured political consent."
