Ross Reid, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Indian Affairs, sent the federal government's response April 5 to the Innu's report Hearing the Voices: Government's Role in Innu Renewal.
"They agreed with the holistic approach," said Rich. "But the government is still not ready to address the self-government land claim issue."
