Native chiefs say Prime Minister Stephen Harper must come out of this month’s First Nations summit willing to forge a new relationship with aboriginals or risk widespread unrest… Many have concerns about the lack of housing, clean running water and education in their communities, but virtually all say they don’t expect to solve those issues in a day. They want the prime minister to commit to holding at least one first ministers meeting on aboriginal issues and to appoint a commissioner to ensure that treaties signed more than 100 years ago are being followed.
