Welcome to the February 2003 issue of Aboriginal Planet! Aboriginal Planet Online Magazine reports on the Aboriginal Canadian events taking place around the world and on important international aboriginal events taking place in Canada. In this issue, find out why "Berlin is a Good Place to be a Blackfoot Indigenous Person" and learn how the Cree, Abenaki and Atikamekw nations left their mark on French soil, thanks to Land Insights. Plus, Aboriginal Planet highlights the work of Chief Margaret Penasse-Mayer, co-chair of the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) Gender Equality Advisory Committee, and other First Nations, Inuit, and Métis delegates at the First Indigenous Women Summit of the Americas.
