First Nations understand and know what changes are needed to improve their poor health status within Canada. This research, based on a First Nation perspective, used content analysis to explore the needs identified by the First Nations organizations that responded to the Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada (the Romanow Commission). The Romanow Commission was established in April 2001 and one element of its mandate was to engage Canadians in a national dialogue on the future of heath care and make recommendations to the health care system. This research examined the written submissions to the Romanow Commission by the thirty-two (32) Aboriginal organizations. The main interest and focus of this research was on the written submissions of eighteen (18) First Nations organizations. The Aboriginal Life Promotion Framework (Bartlett, 2004) was developed by a Metis woman and sensitized the researcher in the direction and organization of the research data. The research analysis revealed twenty-one (21) themes among the Aboriginal submissions. Four (4) of these themes were common to all five identified Aboriginal categories [First Nations, Inuit, Metis, Metis & Aboriginal, Aboriginal Interest/Focus] created by the researcher to assist in the organization of the research data. The researcher examined these four themes with the major focus being First Nations health concerns with respect to: (1) relatonships with federal and provincial governments; (2) policy and program development; (3) fiscal resources; and, (4) accessibility issues.
