Press conference held by the House of Commons Standing Committee on Constitional Change presenting its report following nation-wide hearings on the Meech Lake accord. Opening statements are presented by Members of Parliament Jean Charest (Progressive Conservative), Robert Kaplan (Liberal Party) and Lorne Nystrom (New Democratic Party). Issues addressed in the question period which follows include: Quebec independence; Canadian unity and regional interests; rights of aboriginal peoples; senate reform; the unanimous approval of the report by members of all parties. A follow-up conference is held by Georges Erasmus, National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations with Phil Fontaine of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs, Matthew Cooncome, Grand Chief of the Council of the Crees of Quebec and Harrison Bull, Chairman of the Constitutional Committee of the Four Nations of Hobbema Band. While responding positively to the intention of the Standing Committee's report, a major disappointment expressed by each speaker is the lack of opportunity for original peoples to participate in the process of constitutional change.
