Brad gave a very interesting talk on Moose, Bears and many other items.

We have been receiving many enquiries
regarding much needed financial help for students.
There is nothing yet specific to Algonquins, we will see it properly
addressed in the Agreement-In-Principle (AIP) and Final Treaty.

However there is some funding available to all aboriginals
that are available from your local Friendship centre.
(There are also other programs)
When contacting any Friendship centre,
please identify yourself as a member of the
Algonquins of Greater Golden Lake First Nation.
