Download or read book Power Struggles written by Thibault Martin and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power Struggles: Hydro Development and First Nations in Manitoba and Quebec examines the evolution of new agreements between First Nations and Inuit and the hydro corporations in Quebec and Manitoba, including the Wuskwatim Dam Project, Paix des Braves, and the Great Whale Project. In the 1970s, both provinces signed so-called “modern treaties” with First Nations for the development of large hydro projects in Aboriginal territories. In recent times, however, the two provinces have diverged in their implementation, and public opinion of these agreements has ranged from celebratory to outrage.Power Struggles brings together perspectives on these issues from both scholars and activists. In debating the relative merits and limits of these agreements, they raise a crucial question: Is Canada on the eve of a new relationship with First Nations, or do the same colonial attitudes that have long characterized Canadian-Aboriginal relations still prevail?

This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indigenous population is a young and rapidly growing demographic group, representing a major economic, social and professional force. This book features benchmarks that companies can use to support their efforts in the social and professional insertion of Indigenous workers. The proposed model is based on four dimensions : planning, cultural securement, support and training. It strives to provide solutions to the needs of the host communities, while minimizing the challenges of social and professional insertion for all. Supported by the FNHRDCQ and the INMQ, this publication is the result of the author's research and several years of experience with Indigenous communities. It is primarily intended for managers and all actors involved in organizations operating in the vicinity of Indigenous communities and territories that hire or wish to hire Indigenous workers. It is also relevant for organizations interested in topics related to the employment of Indigenous workers.
Download or read book A Written Constitution for Quebec written by Richard Albert and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2023-01-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No province in Canada has codified a written constitution, and whether Quebec should be the first remains a controversial question. A Written Constitution for Quebec? enters into the debate, drawing a roadmap through the legal, political, and constitutional terrain of the issue. Leading scholars each take their own position in the debate, examining the issue from various sides and exploring the forms and limits of a codified Quebec constitution by asking whether Quebec should adopt a written constitution, how the province might go about it, and what such a document might achieve. Along with a comprehensive introduction to constitutional codification and how it relates to Quebec, the book opens with a proposal for a written constitution, with the analyses that follow expressing a diversity of views on the feasibility and desirability of a written constitution for the province. An array of perspectives through the lenses of Indigenous inclusion and reconciliation, interculturalism and democratic constitutionalism, and insights from other federal and plurinational states – are included in this wide-ranging volume. Taking a doctrinal, historical, theoretical, and comparative approach, A Written Constitution for Quebec? extensively addresses Quebec’s constitutional future in Canada.

Download or read book On the Land written by Bruce W. Hodgins and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1995-06-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is from the land that the Native peoples of Canada draw their strength. If the people of Quebec claim a right to sovereignty, Inuit of Quebec argue their right of self-determination empowers them with the choice to remain part of Quebec, of Canada or to secede on their own. The James Bay Cree consider Hydro Quebec’s "mad plans to engineer and dam the vast ecosystem" where they have lived for centuries an affront to their own right to control their land. The Labrador Innu are struggling with both the federal and provincial governments to protect their traditional hunting territories from threats imposed by military training flights and mineral exploration. All of these are challenges. As the Native peoples of Canada are meeting them, asserting their right to make choices for themselves, they stand steadfastly "on the land" from which flow their inherent rights to self-determination. "We are not willing to be bystanders and spectators. We are not willing to have our political status once again determined by others." – Zebedee Nungak, President of Makivik, representing Inuit of Northern Quebec "Great Whale is only a symptom. The attempted dispossession of my people, and the purported extinguishment of our rights, is the cause." – Matthew Coon Come, Grand Chief of the Grand Council of the Cree "The real solution to the problems that face the Innu people is recognition by Canada and Newfoundland of our rights, rights to our land and our way of life. We can not and will not settle for anything less." – Daniel Ashini, Director of Innu Rights and Environment for the Innu Nation
Download or read book The Universalism of Human Rights written by Rainer Arnold and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there universalism of human rights? If so, what are its scope and limits? This book is a doctrinal attempt to define universalism of human rights, as well as its scope and limits. The book presents tests of universalism on international, regional and national constitutional levels. It is maintained that universalism of human rights is both a ‘concept’ and a ‘normative reality’. The normative character of human rights is scrutinized through the study of international and regional agreements as well as national constitutions. As a consequence, limitations of normativity are identified, usually on the international level, and take the form of exceptions, reservations, and interpretations. The book is based on the General and National Reports which were originally presented at the 18th International Congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law in Washington D.C. 2010.

Book excerpt: In this book, Georges Sioui, who is himself Wendat, redeems the original name of his people and tells their centuries-old history by describing their social ideas and philosophy and the relevance of both to contemporary life. The question he poses is a simple one: after centuries of European and then other North American contact and interpretation, isn't it now time to return to the original sources, that is to the ideas and practices of indigenous peoples like the Wendats, as told and interpreted by indigenous people like himself?
Download or read book Nationhood at Work written by Dave Poitras and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do nations continue to be made on a daily basis? In this important contribution to nationalism studies, Dave Poitras explores how nationhood and the idea of living in a world of nations are experienced in the cities of Montreal and Brussels. Drawing on ethnographic research, he identifies three typical ways of enacting nationhood in workplaces, thereby capturing the various dynamics through which non-political actors "do nationhood". In particular, Dave Poitras examines the distinct mechanisms whereby nations are made and demonstrates how individuals' everyday activities legitimize Montreal's and Brussels's unique social constellation within their respective federal state.
