Page R1

Peigan Lonefighters leader Milton Born With A Tooth is scheduled for a new trial Sept. 27.

His was to appear in May but two adjournments delayed the trial further. Crown prosecutor William Pinckney challenged the first jury panel because it had what he called a disproportionately high number of Natives.

Defence lawyer Karen Gainer appealed the second panel because it didn't have enough Aboriginals. Ill health has forced Gainer to delay the proceedings until September.

The four-day gathering had four aims: to mark 1993 as the International Year of the Indigenous People; celebrate Natives' survival as distinct people; share Native culture among Natives and non-Natives and to demonstrate unity in the fact of government policies that identify Native identity and rights.
