"As the 12-year-old treaty process gradually works its way towards some positive results, the increasingly tired generalities trotted out in public by both governments and First Nations--treaties will provide certainty, treaties will put an end to conflict over use of land and resources--have done little to remove diehard negative attitudes." (BC BUSINESS) The author interviews four "young, visionary, highly articulate" Canadian aboriginals to discuss "why they say they want their rights recognized, their land claims resolved, control over their own lives, social responsibility and the ability to get on with business."
