The Assembly of First Nations represents all First Nations citizens in Canada. On June 29, 2007, the organization plans a National Day of Action to wake up Canadians to the plight of First Nation citizens in Canada. There are many issues requiring action in Canada, including aboriginal poverty, and equitable resolution of land claims. First Nations citizens want a share in the “good life” in Canada, and want their fair share of the resource wealth related to land which was once their own.

American First Nations--the real history
Daniel N. Paul is perhaps best known for his book entitled, We Were Not The Savages, which details the European invasion of North America, concerted attempts at genocide, and its aftermath. The book concentrates on the Mi’kmaq and their interpretation of events.
His website, danielpaul.com, contains a wealth of information, including paintings and photographs, and the historical background of his books. Dr. Paul’s intention is to provide users of his website with an accurate account of the history and aspirations of Native Peoples.
