In 1982, the Native Affairs Secretariat was created in response to increasing urbanization of Manitoba's Aboriginal population and related requirements for government services. The Secretariat served as an advisor, particularly on Aboriginal social and economic issues, and reported to the Minister Responsible for Native Affairs and the Native Affairs Committee of Cabinet. Responding to growing emphasis on self-governance, the Native Affairs Secretariat participated in tri-partite negotiations between the province, Canada and Aboriginal community representatives. In 1999, the department was renamed Aboriginal and Norther Affairs. The Secretariat was amalgamated with the Agreements Management and Coordination Division and was renamed Aboriginal Affairs Secretariat. The reorganized department, as partners and consultants, is committed to working with Aboriginal and northern Manitobans to help address the issues affecting them.
