Support for Native self-government among Canada's provincial and territorial leaders is still alive and well.

The 10 provincial and two territorial premiers agreed at a two-day meeting in Nova Scotia last month to try and restart Native self-government negotiation, said Ron George, head of the Native Council of Canada (NCC).

"They've always been in favour of it," he said. "They agreed to it in the Charlottetown Accord. We've continued to work on it outside the constitution."

The outcome of a court case involving four bands in Alberta may have serious ramifications for Natives across Canada.

The Ermineskin, Montana, Louis Bull and Samson Bands are seeking a declaration from Ottawa to the effect that, under the 1870 Rupert's Land Order, the federal government honor a promise to protect "the interests and well-being" of Natives. A resolution of that statement could mean compensation for lost resources and lands which span almost the entire region of Canada.
