- A discussion paper, written by Walter Rudnicki on 11 August 1978, on issues facing indigenous peoples in Canada and on possible strategies that could be implemented to cope with these issues. This paper was written for the National Indian Brotherhood (now the Assembly of First Nations). The issues Rudnicki discusses are the issue of aboriginal rights, treaties, and agreements; the issue of poverty; and the issue of government policy. He suggests four policy options, makes recommendations, and, in an appendix, suggests an organisational concept for the NIB.
