I
am interested in serving people where my experience in Native politics,
engaged in responding to federal and provincial policies, federal legislation,
and helping to provide a range of public services (education, social services, child
welfare, policing, public works, health services, housing, employment procurement,
and tribal enterprises) can be useful. I am specifically interested in the health
and well-being of people. I am interested in advances made by medicine, social
science, mental health, and writing. My values are: do no harm; respect all people
regardless of their origin, heritage, and belief; I value history, tradition, and culture
but also in the future and in the possibility of engaging confirmed knowledge
with new findings that can be explored, defined, processed, and validated for the
benefit of people. I am especially interested in voicing health careers for Native
people, in particular the youth. I would like to be associated with processes and
persons, who operate with a minimum of specific governmental direction, are
independent, forwarding looking, ethical, and responsible to society.
