Description

A detailed take a look at Innu relations with the Canadian state, developers, explorers, missionaries, educators, health-care professionals, and the justice system.

Based on extensive historical research and fieldwork in Labrador over a few years, A Way of Life that Does now not Exist brings to light the dimensions of the tragedies that experience overtaken the Innu, giving upward push to international human rights concerns.

Colin Samson looks in detail at Innu relations with the Canadian state, developers, explorers, missionaries, educators, health-care professionals, and the justice system. Even supposing the Innu have lost land and lives within the attempts to assimilate them, Samson demonstrates that many have also resisted the official state policy of ‘extinguishment’ through both political channels and by keeping up a resilient belief of their distinctiveness and their attachment to the land.
