| Scope and content | This file contains a presentation by Linda Staats and Vivian Bomberry relating to the need for a national public education strategy to initiate much-needed changes for Aboriginals in the education system. Staats states that cross-cultural education and anti-racist education is needed at all educational levels, along with revision of curriculum and teaching resources. She calls on the Commission to help fund a high school for Aboriginal students in Hagersville. Staats also briefly discusses a number of other topics, including language extinction, seniors' living facilities and self-determination. A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation. | |
