Quotes

"This CD belongs in the libraries of every community and 
government, on the course lists of every high school, college and 
university in the country, and in the hands of all those who care 
about establishing a fair and honourable relationship between 
Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada."
Marlene Brant Castellano, former Co-Director of Research for the 
Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples and Professor Emeritus of 
Trent University

" ... this resource has a broad application across the social studies, 
English, library skills curricula at every grade level and indeed 
beyond the public school system. It is a document that colleges and 
universities will no doubt find very useful. The CD-ROM contains 
information applicable to a wide range of curricular topics: 
geography, law, history, environmental studies, English/Native 
literature, cultural and multicultural studies ... The division into the 
seven categories for research is evidence that this is no superficial 
document; its validity lies in its advanced searching capability."
Wally Diefenthaler, Kaye Steward and Gail Sobat, educators, Bellerose 
Composite High School, St. Albert, Alberta
