Newsletter No. 5, September 2006

National Aboriginal lands managers association (NALMA)

This month's Info-Lands is focussed on more general interest issues rather than technical ones. We have included a summary that the National Aboriginal Lands Managers Association sent to us so that the First Nations in Québec could become familiar with its mandate and the type of services that it offers. Also, in connection with the information sent out last December regarding municipal life, we are providing information on an initiative by the Union des municipalités du Québec.
Pleasant reading
