Aboriginal policy and claims negotiation in Canada is seen to be a murky and perplexing world that has become an important public issue and has significant policy implications for government spending. Aboriginal land policy in Canada began as an Aboriginal initiative. In No Place for Fairness, David McNab - a long time advisor on land and treaty rights for both government and First Nations groups - looks at the Bear Island Indigenous rights case,…

Storytelling and cultural identity: Louise Erdrich's exploration of the German/American connection in The Master Butchers Singing Club
To understand stories, one must understand the spirit of the stories and the spirit of the person and the family who is telling them. Above all, one must know oneself. For Louise Erdrich, the American writer of Mtis/Cree/Chippewa (also known as Anishinabe or Ojibwa) origin on her mother's side and German/ Jewish/Catholic heritage, on her father's side, this has meant a lifelong commitment to writing in order to maintain a sense of sanity and stab…
The significance of place and indigenous knowledge in Louise Erdrich's Books and Islands in Ojibwe Country (2003)
Place and the stories that come from them are an integral and inseparable part of nature. Nature is landscape and mindscape conjoined and this idea is well illustrated in the autobiographical writings of Louise Erdrich. Books and Islands in Ojibwe Country is an autobiographical work by Erdrich, which was published by the National Geographical Society in 2003. In it, Erdrich explores the relationship between Books and Islands, which she argues fun…
The Perfect Disguise: Frank Speck's Pilgrimage to Ktaqamkuk—The Place of Fog—in 1914
Introduction: Who Was Frank Speck? There have been many European visitors to Turtle Island and they have been shaped by both Aboriginal people and places. This is one such story, a story of European science, racism, and the perfect disguise, a story of Frank and the Mi'kmaq of Ktaqamkuk. It is also a story of a transformer in history, one who was chosen to keep alive the remarkable history of survival of the Mi'kmaq of Newfoundland, and of the Be…

Herman Merivale and the Native Question, 1837-1861
One of the most important consequences of the granting of colonial self-government in the British Empire in the early and mid-Victorian period was that it created complex problems for the Colonial Office concerning the future of native populations. In the nineteenth century this imperial dilemma was termed the "native question." Natives were regarded as a lower class, like the Irish or the poor in Britain, and British liberals sought to better th…
