Jury Roll Recommendations Out
A report on ensuring proper aboriginal representation on provincial jury
rolls is out and it includes 17 key recommendations. Former Supreme
Court of Justice Frank Iacobucci released his report in Thunder Bay
today after meeting with people from 32 First Nation Communities, and
Aboriginal Leadership. Key goals include providing cultural training for
government officials working in the justice system who have contact
with First Nations people and creating a First Nation advisory group to
the Attorney General.
