Download or read book First Nations? Second Thoughts written by Thomas Flanagan and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2000 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dissects the prevailing orthodoxy determining public policy toward Canada's aboriginal peoples, an orthodoxy holding that aboriginals belong to "nations" entitled to specific rights. For example, Indians and Inuit now have rights to self-government, immunity from taxation, hunting and fishing rights beyond those of other citizens, free education, housing and medical care. Flanagan (political science, U. of Alberta) argues that such benefits are actually destructive to the people they are supposed to help and that the only people empowered by such entitlements are a small elite of aboriginal activists, politicians, administrators, middlemen, and well-connected entrepreneurs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when the Métis are becoming increasingly visible in Canadian politics, this unique book offers a practical guide for understanding who they are and the challenges they face on the path to self-government. It shows how the Métis are giving life to Louis Riel’s vision of a self-governing Métis Nation through the ongoing application of principles of governance that emerged during the fur trade. Drawing on the Métis language – Michif – Kelly Saunders and Janique Dubois demonstrate how the Métis have adapted their governance structures within the Canadian state context to meet the everyday needs of Métis citizens.

Download or read book With Good Intentions written by Celia Haig-Brown and published by University of British Columbia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Good Intentions examines the joint efforts of Aboriginal people and individuals of European ancestry to counter injustice in Canada when colonization was at its height, from the mid-nineteenth to the early twentieth century. These people recognized colonial wrongs and worked together in a variety of ways to right them, but they could not stem the tide of European-based exploitation. The book is neither an apologist text nor an attempt to argue that some colonizers were simply "well intentioned." Almost all those considered here -- teachers, lawyers, missionaries, activists -- had as their overall goal the Christianization and civilization of Canada's First Peoples. While their sensitivity and willingness to work in concert with Aboriginal people made them stand out from their less sympathetic compatriots, they were nonetheless implicated in the colonialist project, as the contributors to this volume make clear. By discussing examples of Euro-Canadians who worked with Aboriginal peoples, With Good Intentions brings to light some of the lesser-known complexities of colonization. Contributors are Thomas S. Abler, Jean Barman, Michael D. Blackstock, Sarah Carter, Janet E. Chute, Celia Haig-Brown, Mary Haig-Brown, Jan Hare, Alan Knight, David A. Nock, Donald B. Smith, and Wendy Wickwire. This volume is an important resource for anyone interested in Canadian history, particularly post-Confederation history, and in Native studies and issues of colonization of Native peoples.

Download or read book People to People, Nation to Nation written by Canada. Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to some of the main themes and conclusions in the final, five-volume report of a royal commission that directed its consultations to examining the foundations of a fair and honourable relationship between the Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples of Canada. The commission held public hearings, visited communities, commissioned research studies, and reviewed numerous past inquiries and reports before producing its final report. That report is an account of the relationship between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people as a central facet of Canada's heritage, of the distortion of that relationship over time, and of the terrible consequences of that distortion for Aboriginal people. It also makes recommendations on restoring a fair and honourable relationship. Chapters of the book correspond to the report's five volumes, and cover such topics as the history of Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations, Aboriginal self- government, social and economic conditions, Aboriginal cultural heritage, and the commitment to renewal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is from the land that the Native peoples of Canada draw their strength.If the people of Quebec claim a right to sovereignty, Inuit of Quebec argue their right of self-determination empowers them with the choice to remain part of Quebec, of Canada or to secede on their own.The James Bay Cree consider Hydro Quebec’s "mad plans to engineer and dam the vast ecosystem" where they have lived for centuries an affront to their own right to control their land.The Labrador Innu are struggling with both the federal and provincial governments to protect their traditional hunting territories from threats imposed by military training flights and mineral exploration.All of these are challenges. As the Native peoples of Canada are meeting them, asserting their right to make choices for themselves, they stand steadfastly "on the land" from which flow their inherent rights to self-determination."We are not willing to be bystanders and spectators. We are not willing to have our political status once again determined by others."– Zebedee Nungak, President of Makivik, representing Inuit of Northern Quebec"Great Whale is only a symptom. The attempted dispossession of my people, and the purported extinguishment of our rights, is the cause."– Matthew Coon Come, Grand Chief of the Grand Council of the Cree"The real solution to the problems that face the Innu people is recognition by Canada and Newfoundland of our rights, rights to our land and our way of life. We can not and will not settle for anything less."– Daniel Ashini, Director of Innu Rights and Environment for the Innu Nation.

Download or read book ‘We Are All Here to Stay’ written by Dominic O’Sullivan and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, 144 UN member states voted to adopt a Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the US were the only members to vote against it. Each eventually changed its position. This book explains why and examines what the Declaration could mean for sovereignty, citizenship and democracy in liberal societies such as these. It takes Canadian Chief Justice Lamer’s remark that ‘we are all here to stay’ to mean that indigenous peoples are ‘here to stay’ as indigenous. The book examines indigenous and state critiques of the Declaration but argues that, ultimately, it is an instrument of significant transformative potential showing how state sovereignty need not be a power that is exercised over and above indigenous peoples. Nor is it reasonably a power that displaces indigenous nations’ authority over their own affairs. The Declaration shows how and why, and this book argues that in doing so, it supports more inclusive ways of thinking about how citizenship and democracy may work better. The book draws on the Declaration to imagine what non-colonial political relationships could look like in liberal societies.
