Indian Affairs Minister in Sioux Lookout

Indian Affairs Minister Jim Prentice says progress needs to be made on
land claims after 60-years of the same problems.
Prentice made the comments at the Chiefs of Ontario Conference in
Sioux Lookout.
Just days after announcing a new approach to clearing a backlog of
more then 800-claims, Prentice says he is partnering with the Assembly of
First Nations in drafting a strategy with the Prime Minister’s support.
The plan will carry a $250-million budget over 10-years.
