Book excerpt: The purpose of this paper is to make suggestions about how Aboriginal self-government could be implemented without any amendment of the Constitution of Canada. The authors suggest that elements of the Charlottetown Constitutional Accord could be included in a political accord or accords, which could become the framework for selfgovernment negotiations. The authors discuss the nature of the powers that could be included in a self-government agreement, making extensive reference to the Yukon First Nation Self-Government Agreements. The issues that are examined include personal and territorial jurisdictions, concurrent and exclusive powers, the relationship of Aboriginal laws to federal and provincial (or territorial) laws, the administration of justice, and the financing of self-government. The authors recommend that self-government agreements should be constitutionally protected, and they explain how that can be accomplished under the existing Constitution. The applicability of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is also discussed, and a recommendation made for the development of Aboriginal constitutions, which could include Aboriginal charters of rights.

Book excerpt: In this provocative and passionate book, Dan Russell outlines the history of Aboriginal self-government in Canada. He compares it to that of the United States, where, for over 150 years, tribes have practised self-government -- domestic dependent nationhood. Russell provides specific examples of how those institutions of government operate, and eloquently explains, from an Aboriginal perspective, what his people hope to achieve through self-governing authority. After describing rights theory, Russell locates Aboriginal self-government as a cultural right, and illustrates how the entitlements of Aboriginal women, an Aboriginal ethic, and collective rights, which are protected by self-governance, may conflict with the Canadian Charter of Rights.

Download or read book Aboriginal Child Welfare Self Government and the Rights of Indigenous Children written by Sonia Harris-Short and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses the contentious and topical issue of aboriginal self-government over child welfare. Using case studies from Australia and Canada, it discusses aboriginal child welfare in historical and comparative perspectives and critically examines recent legal reforms and changes in the design, management and delivery of child welfare services aimed at securing the 'decolonization' of aboriginal children and families. Within this context, the author identifies the limitations of reconciling the conflicting demands of self-determination and sovereignty and suggests that international law can provide more nuanced and culturally sensitive solutions. Referring to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, it is argued that the effective decolonization of aboriginal child welfare requires a journey well beyond the single issue of child welfare to the heart of the debate over self-government, self-determination and sovereignty in both national and international law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Building on the success of the first two editions, this volume briefly recaps the historical development and public acceptance of the concept of Aboriginal self-government, then proceeds to examine its theoretical underpinnings, the state of Aboriginal self-government in Canada today, and the many practical issues surrounding implementation. Topics addressed include: justice innovations, initiatives in health and education to grant greater Aboriginal control, financing and intergovernmental relations, Aboriginal-municipal government relations, developing effective Aboriginal leadership, Métis self government aspirations, the intersection of women's rights and self-government, and international perspectives. Various self-government arrangements already in existence are examined including the establishment of Nunavut, the James Bay Agreement, Treaty Land Entitlement settlements, the Alberta Métis settlements, and many other land claims settlements that have granted Aboriginal communities greater control over their affairs."--Pub. website.
