Scope and content | The file contains a presentation by Walter Manitowabi. Manitowabi, a business development adviser with Waubetek Business Development Corporation of Birch Island, discusses his "small business development which strengthens Aboriginal business. It will become a catalyst to improving the quality of life in First Nations communities." In relation to this Manitowabi discusses Treaty rights, the proposed Chartered Land Act, government service contracts, decentralization of programs and services, ministerial or government guarantees for business loans on-reserve, investment and funding issues, and revenue sharing. Following the presentation Commissioners Dussault and Sillett discuss some of the issues raised with Manitowabi. | |
