Document Summary

Watched a video called sesame street: cripple creek : horse and buffy st. marie sing a song. Economic strategies and policies: concepts of development . Natives would like jobs that suit them, they are not anti-progress. Developing community competence: the ability of people to come together to make rational decisions about what to do for their community as a whole. Building community infrastructures: schools, roads, water treatment facilities. Unemployment has gone down after the 2008 recession. First nation (status) 13. 3: tend to live in or around large urban centers than any other native group. Inuit 18. 2: tend to live in northern areas, so not many possible jobs. Some people may not take jobs because kinship is very important to them. In a market economy labour will move where jobs are: the cultural context of development. Working with aboriginal peoples rather than through them.
