Metis: Saskatchewan Environment
built 631 days ago
The Metis Nation of Saskatchewan continues to be plagued by a lack of leadership. Roth continues to act as if he was the legitimate elected President... the province and the new federal Minister of Aboriginal Affairs do not recognize the current executive. As a result, funding has been cut and only affiliate organizations are receiving funding.

Metis is an object-oriented toolkit for 3D interactive simulation. The goal is to create a simple, flexible high-performance software architecture that enables the rapid construction of immersive virtual reality applications for simulation, utilizing highly interactive techniques such as 3D direct manipulation and virtual tools (or "3D widgets"). Possible areas of application include robotics simulation, 3D character animation, surgical simulation, small-scale multi-user shared environments, and any inherently 3D tasks which require highly interactive user interfaces.

The initiatives that Saskatchewan and Alberta have taken to-date to provide some Metis people with a land base are commendable. What has been done ... represents efforts to rationalize the status of farms and settlement lands, which had been set aside for some Metis many years ago in an effort to alleviate their severe impoverishment. These provincial measures do not address more general Metis land claims as a legal and unfulfilled obligation of the Federal Government or the recognition of this title in such constitutional statutes as the Manitoba Act, the Dominion Land Act, the Resource Transfer Acts and in innumerable Orders in Council.
