Page 4

March marked the end of the first quarter in the United Nations International Year of the World's Indigenous People.

And it was quite a month for Natives in Canada.

There were funding cuts to Native programs across the country and in Manitoba, armed police raids on a reserve in Saskatchewan, and continued government disinterest in the Third World living conditions at Davis Inlet.

Page 3

Carney Nerland refused to testify before the inquiry into his shooting of a Native trapper after months of legal wrangling to extradite him from his Manitoba prison.

The white supremacist refused to even give his name after the commission refused to ban photographers from taking pictures of him.
