Canada's Official Tourism Website. Harper’s disregard for aboriginal health. When governments make a decision that is stupid, embarrassing, overly partisan, or risks causing an outcry, they tend to do so late in the day and late in the week, preferably on the eve of a holiday long weekend, when citizens – and journalists – aren’t paying much attention.

It is with sadness that NAHO will wind down by June 30, 2012.” This travesty of public policy only came to light because of feisty publications like Windspeaker and Nunatsiaq News. Colors - Unknown.
