    About this ebook

    “Natives and Settlers provides a beginning to what should be (and should have been) a continuing, respectful discussion.” —Blanca Schorcht, Associate Professor, University of Northern British Columbia. Is Canada truly postcolonial? Burdened by a past that remains ‘refracted’ in its understanding and treatment of Native peoples, this collection reinterprets treaty making and land claims from Aboriginal perspectives. These five essays not only provide fresh insights to the interpretations of treaties and treaty-making processes, but also examine land claims still under negotiation. Natives and Settlers reclaims the vitality of Aboriginal laws and paradigms in Canada, a country new to decolonization.

      Editor’s Note

      May 13, 2021

      QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU: why is the beaver Canada’s national animal? Officially, it has to do with the fur trade and how beaver pelts became hats for Europeans, thereby building the foundation of our country’s economy. And I suspect it didn’t hurt tha
