Windspeaker.comA resolution to establish a chiefs’ committee on nation-building was not put forward at the Assembly of First Nations special chiefs assembly last week.
National Chief RoseAnne Archibald said the chiefs' resistance to change was slowing the process of the Healing Path Forward Accord that would set a new approach to dealing with the federal government on treaty and inherent rights implementation.

Chiefs’ resistance to change stalls new path for AFN
National Chief RoseAnne Archibald has given chiefs another few months to get on board with the next steps for her proposed Healing Path Forward Accord. The accord was adopted at last July’s Assembly of First Nations (AFN) annual general assembly in a resolution entitled “A renewed framework providing strategic direction and action toward evolutionary and positive change.” This spring’s assembly, held April 4 to April 6, was to give the go-ahead to establish a chiefs’ committee on nation-building.
