TitleUrban Elder
NotesIn the last forty years, Canada has seen a major population shift of Aboriginal peoples to the cities. Toronto has become home to the largest urban Native population in the country (65,000 people).

Today's urban Indians are developing an urban native culture. They are discovering ways to integrate important expressions of traditional Native culture into city life. Meet Vern Harper, urban elder, who walks the "red road" in a fast-paced, urban landscape.
