Strategies for self-reliance : Canadian native and third world community-based development / Prepared by: Development Education Centre.: R44-51/1983E-PDF
"A 1981 cabinet document entitled "Indian Economic and Employment Development" made arguments for major shifts in federal policy direction. Recognizing that successive government initiatives and massive expenditures had failed to lessen native dependency, a new strategic approach was proposed, aimed at enhancing native economic and social self-reliance. Comprehensive, community-based approaches were seen as offering substantial possibilities for long-term benefits. Attention was paid to the potential of community-owned enterprises to foster native self-reliance. The same cabinet document pointed out parallels between the problems of Canadian native communities and those of undeveloped and developing regions and countries elsewhere. It also stressed the relevance of overseas experience to the needs of native Canadians"--Executive summary, p. 1.
