The Assembly of the First Nations (ASFN) is an umbrella organization that represents all First Nations in Canada. The site provides resource for funding links for First Nations set against current press releases on all issues across Canada dealing with First Nations issues. This umbrella site is an excellent resource to start with when examining issues common to all First Nations across Canada, such as poverty and residential schools. The website acts as an informative dialogue into the current state of affairs and issues facing First Nations in the 21st century.
The “Have Your Say” site provides a relevant real time platform for First Nations to discuss and interact with issues that are relevant to them. However, the website does not seem to be current, in the sense there is not information posted in 2013, with the last post in June 2012, and most of the information posted in 2011 when the site was published. Therefore, I would use this site as an example in my project to discuss the need to maintain a current presence online, as a website becomes subject to validity questions if not maintained.
