The main idea for the government to focus on the Aboriginal people was to take away their land for resources and development.

Explanation:

Aboriginals were the natives who weren't respected or seen as natives by the government and the colonists. The main idea for the government to focus on the Aboriginal people was to take away their land for resources and development.

The federal and provincial government permit houses and businesses to be built on lands that were subject to claims from Aboriginal peoples because Aboriginals were considered uneducated and uncivilized and they were color discriminated. The parents were separated from their children in need to brain wash the children. To make them forget who they were and raise them in a civilized. But ultimately all this was done to take the land and resources for themselves and terminate the aboriginals.
