North Amercan Indigenous Peoples Caucus Concluding Statement
Global Indigenous Preparatory Conference in Alta, Norway
June 8-12, 2013.

"Canada and the United States voted against the UN
Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples despite the fact that their
entire economy and their entire world global position is based upon the
colonization, based on the stealing of the land and resources of our people and
it is our people who are the poorest of the poor, in Canada and the United
States and we’ve been that way for generation after generation.
That what I mean it’s
colonization."
