The mandate : Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples : background documents.: Z1-1991/1-31-1

It is important that the Commission carry out its work with both a knowledge of the history of aboriginal people and our future goals and to use that knowledge to inform and guide its work. The Commission should not be another study of the problems facing aboriginal people, for these have been well documented in numerous reports, studies, and presentations. In addition, there have been many solutions proposed by a variety of individuals, groups and associations, both aboriginal and non-aboriginal. Some of these solutions are currently being tried within our communities with varying degrees of success. What is important at this time is that the Commission examine the various solutions, efforts and activities and point the way for Canadians to support the continued development of aboriginal communities.
