First Nation course participation noted

Page 14

Dear Editor:

I am writing regarding an article in your Aug. 2001 issue titled "Metis on the move to full employment." I find the title and article to be misleading; the article gives the impression that all of the 35 people you have listed work for the MNA, even the title "Metis on the move . . ." gives the impression that we [are] all Metis. I am not sure if you are aware that the CAED program had trainees from Treaty 6, 7 and 8, the Metis settlements as well as the MNA, and at least 12 of those people you have listed, I know, work for First Nations. I am one of them. I am disappointed that there is no mention of the three treaty areas that participated.

Thanks,

Connie Giroux Snelling
