The area also saw an eightfold increase in the suicide rate despite the introduction of a multi-million dollar system of outside helping services. By assuming control of health services, the First Nations have increased the ability to address health and social service problems locally.

Volumes of research have generated data and theory on Aboriginal people in Canada, and yet there is little research which Aboriginal peoples have been able to determine themselves.

As an adopted child, I often felt I was living in a borrowed state of being. In someone else's family, borrowing someone else's name and culture. Meeting my birth family and recognizing my connection to the Metis community gave me a sense of belonging for the first time in my life.

Abstract: The Northwest Territories encompasses a third of Canada's land mass. In 1999, the one territory will become two. Separating the arctic from the subarctic, the division will approximately follow the tree line, which runs diagonally across the Northwest Territories from the northwest to the southeast. The Nunavut territory will provide a self-governed homeland for the Inuit in the eastern arctic. The western territory will encompass the traditional homeland of the Inuvialuit, the Dene and Metis (Canada's Northwest Territories 1996 Explorer's Guide). In the Northwest Territories, where Native people are the majority, Aboriginal self-government is a reality.

That is the good news. The bad news is that there has not been similar success in the area of other addictions, particularly gambling. Statistics exist which reveal the negative effects of gambling on Native people.
