EDMONTON - They've waited more than 60 years. Now, Alberta's Lubicon
Cree will have to wait at least two more weeks before resuming
negotiations to set up their own reserve.
Talks between the band and the federal government were to have resumed
today. But Ottawa asked that they be postponed to Jan. 27 because
government negotiators are still waiting for answers to legal
questions.
The Lubicon hope to set up their reserve in the Little Buffalo area
northeast of Peace River, Alta.
