    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The launch of the public broadcaster’s first national Indigenous strategy was made at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg.

    “Our aim is to better reflect, respect and amplify diverse Indigenous perspectives across the public broadcaster,” Robert Doane, a Gitxsan journalist and the strategy’s new senior director, said in a statement.

    Doane says the goal of is to build on CBC/Radio-Canada’s connection with First Nations, Inuit and Métis, which he said goes back to the launch of CBC North’s radio service in 1958.

    David Beaudin, the minister of agriculture with the Manitoba Métis Federation, said it’s about time the diverse Indigenous communities have “real and true partners” who work with them to share their stories, so that they may be included and remembered.

    After that, they’ll set “meaningful, realistic targets that we can validate each year,” he said in an email, aiming to create opportunities for all First Nation, Inuit and Métis.

    Catherine Tait, president and CEO of the broadcaster, says the strategy provides a framework to amplify the voices of Indigenous communities and its employees.
