Government celebrates year of Indigenous with funding cuts, raids
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.
Federal and provincial officials celebrated the international year in their own special ways. 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.
