Here's some gasoline for this fire. I listened to CBC today discussing the Metis. Whole new can of worms due in part, to trying to define what/who is Metis. Seems they're mentioned in the constitution - thanks Pierre. Whole new group to make life complicated - problems are real enough for the direct children but how far down the line of descendants should we go in giving special rights? Having said that, i'd be all for giving lots of benefits to the kids. Both people and dogs benefit from the mutt factor, no?

Hunting rights seem to be a key issue. So how do we assign hunting rights between competing groups? Is there, or should there be a privileged group? Is there any way to permanently resolve this in a fair way?

The first link is to the show & current episode, the second to CBC past podcasts - go to ReVision Quest heading. I downloaded the whole bunch for my holiday listening/ dog walking. Undustrial, given your extensive background in this area, i'd be interested in any comments you have about any of this series.
