The points I would like to make are mainly regarding the exposure of Aboriginal peoples in the Media. I literally have never seen a Native person in a commercial or in movies playing a generic role that anyone could play. I would like to see if we could get an action going to bring this about. We would have to brainstorm our thoughts to bring ideas of how this could be done.
My other point is to find ways to reward or encourage successful Aboriginals. Perhaps a mention on the weekly news or a write up in the newspaper.
Thirdly, I understand that the Chretien government brought in a bill which limits the First Persons' freedom while on their reserves. We need to look into this more and find out how this bill and any other bill is preventing the success of the young.
