The historical legal and current basis for Siksika nation governance, including its future possibilities within Canada : a case study in Aboriginal governance / Andrew Bear Robe, project study coordinator...: Z1-1991/1-41-102E-PDF

This study was undertaken under the authority and mandate of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples (RCAP) as established via Order-in-Council on August 26, 1991. The Royal Commission's broad Terms of Reference includes an investigation into sixteen (16) separate but interrelated aboriginal issues and problems "which confront aboriginal peoples today." The Siksika Nation undertook a commitment to assist in the monumental work of the Royal Commission in one of those specified areas for investigation, namely, the Aboriginal Governments in Canada Project, with a particular emphasis and focus upon Siksika Nation's recent experiences with governance matters and initiatives. For purposes of this study, recent means: post 1968, the year when the last proverbial Indian Agent left the Blackfoot Indian Reserve permanently and when Siksika Nation self-governance actually began.
