Algonquin
Land Claims
As
with many new initiatives there is much misinformation being circulated
regarding the Algonquin Land Claim process. The Council of the
United Townships of Head, Clara & Maria recently had the
opportunity to discuss current developments with various members of the
Negotiation Team. In order to ensure that accurate information is
available to all residents we are creating this link to the Ontario
Ministry of Aboriginal Affairs site which fully explains the
process and the players. Please review this site for complete
accurate information.
Alternately please contact the following members of the Ontario
Negotiation Team.
