Scope and content | This file contains an individual presentation by Richard Saunders, a federal public servant for 20+ years. Saunders focuses on unfilled treaty obligations and as an non-Aboriginal Canadian, he says that the treaties of the past have not been honoured, and latter day land claim settlements are costing additional millions of dollars because the federal government does not want to settle them. A brief question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation. | |
