Scope and contentFile contains a presentation by Linda Ross, a Sarcee woman. Ross recounts the history of her people's signing of Treaty No. 7 in what is today southern Alberta. She then goes on to describe the history of her people since the Treaty's implementation, and the need to address Treaty rights and poverty before Aboriginal self-governance becomes possible. Following the presentation is a discussion between Mrs. Ross and Commissioners Dussault and Sillet on the topics of the presentation.
