BRITISH COLUMBIA DOCUMENTS

 

THE NEW RELATIONSHIP DOCUMENT, 2005

 

The following are Gordon Campbell quotes, all made in 2005 following the New Relationship Document at a First Minister's meeting and other meetings alike:

 
“We will forge new relations with First Nations, founded on reconciliation, respect, and recognition of aboriginal rights and title.”
 
“Today we’re talking about Canada’s future, and the future of aboriginal people in this country—people who have been left behind for the entire history of Canada.”
 
“The gap that exists between the aboriginal Canadians, First Nations and the general public, is something we should all be ashamed of.”
 
“There was a denial of rights, of culture, of opportunity and equality. . . . The first nations and aboriginal people of Canada have been failed, and we must move forward to rectify that.”
