Encyclopedia > Aboriginal Peoples Party of Canada

The Aboriginal Peoples Party of Canada (APP) is a Canadian political party that was founded in 2005. Originally conceived by University of Lethbridge student Myron John Wolf Child, the party held its founding meeting on August 21, 2005 in St. Albert, Alberta. The APP is currently headed by interim leader Bill Montour, a former Chief of the Six Nations Reserve in Ontario. In October 2005, the party had 122 confirmed members, just less than half the amount needed to register as an official party in Canada. In late October 2005, the APP sought to unite with the First Peoples National Party of Canada, but results of these efforts are unclear. The APP intends to have candidates in the next federal election, which is expected to take place in early 2006. August 21 is the 233rd day of the year (234th in leap years) in the Gregorian Calendar. ...

The leaders of the Aboriginal peoples of Canada have called on Conservative Party leader Stephen Harper to explain his position on the writings and statements of Tom Flanagan, Senior Advisor to the Conservative leader and National Campaign Chair for the Conservative Party.
Sovereignty is an attribute of statehood, and aboriginal peoples in Canada had not arrived at the state level of political organization prior to contact with Europeans.
Perhaps the damage to Canada would be tolerable if it meant that aboriginal peoples would escape from the social pathologies in which they are mired to become prosperous, self-supporting citizens.
