Altruism, Ā-Movement, and Object Agreement in Innu-aimûn
This article examines the syntactic properties of a long-distanceagreement construction in Innu-aimûn (Algonquian)in which a matrix verb may agree with an argument in its complement clause, normally with an associated topic interpretation for the DP target of agreement.

A systematic study is important in part because some fish species of the area have elevated levels of mercury .... It is therefore important to identify the species correctly, and to check wh…
