Scope and content | File contains a presentation by the Centre de formation Nutshimiu Atusseun. Reginald Volland, accompanied by Ben Sylvestre McKenzie, and Bernard St-Onge, discusses the work of their centre whose purpose is to "provide traditional wilderness skills courses, activities such as hunting, trapping, fishing, [and] particularly life in the wilderness. These activities are taught by elders, elders of the community, elders who still today have many values and skills to pass on. Through the elders, we help young people to discover themselves, to take charge of their lives." Following Vollant's presentation the assembled Commissioners discuss the Centre and its work with him. | |
