Scope and content | The file contains a presentation by Jeanette Castello. Castello states that her presentation is "based on the theme working together towards a positive change presented on behalf of the Tsimshian community of Kitselas." Castello discusses traditional self-government practices, and problems brought on by colonialism. Castello makes a series of recommendations to the Commission including unlimited funding for post-secondary First Nations education, the need for cultural components in education, empowerment of traditional leaders, the need for resources for cultural enhancement, and the need to establish a First Nations' ombudsman office. | |
