From iPolitics:
In the summer of 2009 I had the privilege of interning with the National Centre for
First Nations Governance (NCFNG) in Vancouver. The four month position was a welcome
break from the my masters studies at the University of Toronto. I was unprepared,
however, for the relevancy and immediacy that such topics have in the context of Aboriginal
governance. [Kelsey Norman is a PhD student in the department of political science
at the University of California, Irvine where she studies immigration, citizenship
and public policy. She has worked as a researcher for various non-profit organizations
in Toronto and Vancouver, as well as in Croatia, Egypt and the United States.]
