Scope and content | File contains an presentation by Vicki Wilson and Kula Ellison focusing on the inability of Aboriginal women's group to be heard and believes that "it is no secret that our women in this province and our sisters elsewhere in this country are presently too busy fighting our own leaders for the recognition of women's rights to be including in moulding and governing of Aboriginal communities and nations." They also state that all levels of government, including First Nations governments, must prioritize family violence as the country's foremost social problems. Following the presentation is a question-and-answer session with the Commissioners. | |
