Native Women & Charlottetown Accord

In The Inconvenient Indian, the author discussed the Charlottetown Accord. I don't believe he mentioned the fact that the Native Women's Association was excluded from negotiations leading up to the Accord. Although other native and Metis organizations were given funding and invited to participate in the negotiations, native women were not represented. The NWA therefore went to court to seek the same financial support as the men's organizations. Here is a link to a summary of the Supreme Court of Canada decision.
