Ottawa has a couple of new commissioned reports about the lives of Natives to consider this month.

Ottawa breached its treaty and fiduciary obligations with a band in Alberta and Saskatchewsan forbidding each from hunting on their traditional lands, a federal commission ruled.

The federal government broke Treaty 6 with the Cold Lake First Nation in Alberta and Treaty 10 with the Canoe Lake First Nation in Saskatchewan commandeering the bands' traditional hunting grounds in the early 1950s to create the Primrose Air Weapons Range, Indian Claims Commissioner Jim Prentice said at an Aug. 17 news conference in Edmonton.
