Bernard Valcourt: Aboriginal Leaders

Government Of Canada Dept: The announcement comes just one week after the resignation of John Duncan from the post, according to Montreal Gazette. I look forward to meeting with Aboriginal leaders in the weeks and months to come. I also welcome the opportunity to work with the Territorial governments across the North on our shared priorities. Our Government remains committed to working with those Aboriginal leaders who want to work with the Government of Canada to create jobs and growth in their communities and oTTAWA Bernard Valcourt, a New Brunswick Conservative who made a political comeback in the last election, has been appointed the federal aboriginal affairs minister. This January, the government committed itself to a high-level dialogue on the treaty relationship and comprehensive claims, Valcourt said in a statement. I am firmly of the view that working together is the best way to achieve our shared objective of healthier, more prosperous and self-sufficient Aboriginal communities. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
