In 2007, Justice Lindon released his report on the Ipperwash Inquiry, a look into the death of Dudley George, who was shot during the 1995 protest at Ipperwash Provincial Park. Several recommendations were made to improve relations between First Nations in Ontario and the provincial government. The key recommendation was the creation of a Treaty Commission of Ontario.
The Chiefs of Ontario created a Project Working Group comprised of representatives of various Provincial/Territorial Organizations to oversee the development of research papers and a process to solicit feedback on the idea of a Treaty Commission of Ontario.
Last week Jennifer David and Alex Ker met in Toronto with the Chiefs of Ontario to begin the critical process of building engagement with First Nations across Ontario.
Stonecircle will be assisting the Project Working Group with a process organized by Sherry Antone, to conduct interviews with experts in treaty negotiations, various levels of government, legal counsel, plus representatives from more than a dozen treaty groups in Ontario. Alex, Jennifer and Kory Goulais will conduct interviews and facilitate group discussions.
A final report will provide perspectives on a potential mandate, structure, functions and operations of a Treaty Commission of Ontario.
