- Summary
- "Canadians have undertaken to assure the survival of Aboriginal governments and culture. As John Richards writes in this well-researched review of Aboriginal policy, Canadians cannot and should not seek a return to an early twentieth-century view of Aboriginal policy whereby native Canadians would be assimilated and their cultural distinctiveness all but ignored. This book explores pragmatic policy reforms that all levels of government -- federal, provincial, and Aboriginal -- should be pursuing."-- Back cover.
