| Scope and content | File contains a presentation by Robert Gambler that states that the Jean-Baptiste Gambler Reserve has been under the rule of the Bigstone Cree Nation. He expresses dissatisfaction with the Bigstone Cree Nation's governance and wonders how the Gambler Reserve fell under the jurisdiction of the Bigstone Cree Nation. Gambler tells the Commission to "that Bigstone Band, through Jean-Baptiste Gambler, my grandfather, was a separate treaty and we want the government's support to help us reclaim our treaty and our ability to manage, administer and organize our own affairs." Following the presentation is a question-and-answer session with the Commissioners. | |
