You touched on a nerve of the government and they probably don't appreciate the kind of response you are giving, mainly because it has a lot to do with government and aboriginal people. But I appreciate your response and your openness to it.
I guess I would have to say, in conclusion, that basically the reason the aboriginal languages are at such a weak point in their history is because of the attitudes. A lot of it has to do with attitude. I don't even know if the government is the right body to be delivering that program, in the first place.
The other thing is that you did mention in chapter five that there were 250 complaints. I saw you in Fort Norman when you were there. Am I part of that 250? Am I one of the 250 complainants, or was it more of a consultation, because I did talk to you. I don't know whether you classified me as complaining or maybe you were just talking with me, consulting. I don't know how much of this is consultation and how much of it is actual complaints.
Yes, I do have copies of the stuff with regard to the month of March being designated as Aboriginal Languages Month. You have come up with this thing. I also got your postcard, too.
The last time that you appeared, it seemed to me that you were broke, and I am just wondering, did you refer this to the official languages unit to get extra money to develop these? How did you manage this?
