| contents | Locked Up and Looking for a Way Out: First Nation Policy Control as a Path Out of the Indian Act Maze Catherine MacQuarrie Canadian Public Administration AbstractThis article explores a way First Nations in Canada can move beyond the constraints of the Indian Act and rebuild their own governance. It argues that exercising their inherent right to self‐government through policy development and control is a path forward. It outlines a process for First Nations to review their existing policies, understand their legal authority, and realign policy to reflect their own cultures, values and priorities. By taking control of their own policymaking, First Nations can address community needs more effectively, reduce reliance on federal control, and build a foundation for stronger governance. 10.1111/capa.70025 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ |
