A
Strong voice in Aboriginal Issues |
I
always believed that Aboriginal people in the north might
be able to reverse the experience in the provinces. Even though
we experienced some setbacks historically, we have been able
to build strong foundations for the future. I think this time
we will do it “right” in the north. |

A
Strong Voice in Health and Wellness |
For
Aboriginal people, strength, health and wellness will only be
achieved when we force ourselves to control our destiny. We
must go beyond looking at ourselves as victims of the injustices
of the past and present.

A
Strong Voice in Environment |
| You can’t
depend on federal politicians and officials in Ottawa to effectively
manage the north’s environment and resources. One day
our government institutions, both public and Aboriginal, will
have the complete control required to manage our environment
from a truly northern perspective. |

A
Strong Voice in Politics |
| For decades,
the Dene stood by while industry and government have prospered
from the resource wealth of NWT while not much was returned.
That’s changed in the Sahtu and throughout the NWT. We
are now involved in deciding when and how minerals, oil and
gas are developed. We will now directly share in the wealth
from their development. |
