Abstract

"Canadians of Indian ancestry have been migrating back and forth between reserves and cities for almost a generation, but difficult conditions in both environments prevent many of them from enjoying social and economic stability in either situation. This study describes and analyses programs in the corporate sector designed to facilitate the entry of people of Indian ancestry into the Canadian labour force. Although this report is mainly directed towards employers, it should also be of interest -- and encouragement -- to Indian organizations and to Indian people in the cities of the West."--Back cover.
