What I had learned from the day did not occur to me until after I had left the agenda camp in Thunder Bay.
1. I realised that I felt much more confident that progress was being made on the the issue of aboriginal ecomomies. The positive steps that have been taken are bearing fruit.
2. The two quite separate issues being addressed in the area (one relating to the economy in communities that are governed by the First Nation themselves and a second relating to the immigration of large numbers of First Nations people into communities governed by the Province and its municipalities - the urban aboriginal issue) require quite different solutions and are disconnected.

In addition, a third concurrent issue is the interactions with other governments (ie guidelines, regulations and restrictions) affecting aboriginal economies on and off reserve.
