Liberal Leadership Candidates build on Martin's Aboriginal legacy with impressive policies... though where is Kennedy?

The frontrunners (and my guy Scott Brison) have all come out with significant and comprehensive Aboriginal policies. Liberal Prime Minister Paul Martin has established a great deal of respect and honour amongst Aboriginal communities for the excellent work he did in terms of rebuilding and solidifying Aboriginal relations in this country. Liberal leadership candidates realize that Aboriginal people represent a huge opportunity in this country, we do have our fair-share of problems, but we also have a great deal to offer this country, as we have in the past.

Though for your reading pleasure, please take a few moments to read the candidate's Aboriginal platforms.
