The Canadian Association in Support of the Native Peoples (CASNP) collection consists of the documentation accumulated by the CASNP. There are no administrative files or other records that address the administration or activities of the Association.
The resources consist of photocopies of newspaper clippings, reports, studies, and statistics. The documentation accumulated by CASNP provides an overview of the life conditions and status of Indigenous Peoples (First Nation, Inuit and Metis) in Canada for over 20 years. Most of the files concern Indigenous communities in Canada but some files address situations of Indigenous Peoples in the U.S.A., Mexico, New-Zealand, Australia and Africa. The different documents are filed under topics and cover many issues such as: education, rights, economy, life conditions, culture, racism, health, government policies (federal, provincial and municipal), as well as Indigenous associations at different political levels.
