"Because of the geographic locations of their Reserves and their resident populations, as well as the strong orientation of economic potential toward integrated renewable resource development, the Indian bands are focusing their socio-economic development strategies on the management of their forest lands. The social and economic returns from investments in two Indian Bands' forestry programs (the Stuart Trembleur Lake Band and its Tanizul Timber Ltd. company, and the Coldwater Band) are documented in order to demonstrate the offsetting rather than incremental nature of investments in long-term forest management programs, with their tendency not to benefit the Bands residents. A benefit/cost analysis using a documentation approach is presented and referenced to the three involved groups: the particular Bands, the provincial government and the federal government. Corollary information on Indian band populations, employment and income are presented."--WorldCat.org.
