"It's going to take many types of organizations as we move towards real self-government under Section 35. But what's going to underpin all of that is the ability to raise revenue...secure finances, &...demonstrate that you have accountability & transparency. - FMB's Harold Calla

"The institutions that we've developed & created are the foundations of decolonization...That's why these conferences are incredibly important for us to talk about these issues, for us to break bread about these issues." - Manny Jules, Chief Commissioner, FNTC #FNLTW6
