    Clarifying Ambiguities: the Rapidly Changing Life of the Canadian Aboriginal Print Media1

    CLARIFYING AMBIGUITIES: THE RAPIDLY CHANGING LIFE OF THE CANADIAN ABORIGINAL PRINT MEDIA1 Jöel Demay Department of Communications University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario Canada, K1N 6N5 Abstract/Resume In 1990 the Canadian government decided to discontinue its financial support for the Native Communications Program. A six-month grace period provided an opportunity to make other funding and staffing arrangements. This article examines the evolution of Canadian Aboriginal print media since the cancellation of their main public support system and questions the future of the Aboriginal media in Canada. En 1990, le gouvernement canadien a décidé de cesser son soutien financier pour le programme des communications autochtones. Une période de répit de six mois a fourni l'occasion de prendre d'autres mesures à l'égard des fonds et du personnel. L'article examine l'évolution de la presse écrite autochtone canadienne depuis l'annulation du principal système du soutien public de cette presse et met en question l'avenir des médias autochtones au Canada. The Canadian Journal of Native Studies XI, 1(1991):95-112. 96 Jöel Demay In the 1990/1991 Federal budget, the Canadian government decided to discontinue its financial support ($3.45 million) to the Native Communica- tions Program it had created 16 years before (NCP - note: a list of acronyms can be found at the end of this paper). Secretary of State Gerry Weiner had informed the publishing managers of the Native Communications Societies the previous month that the program would die. A six-month grace period would be provided until September 1990 to allow for transition and other arrangements, but the truth of the matter remained: when the summer was over, the NCP would be no longer.
