The White Man's Gonna Getcha: The Colonial Challenge to the Crees in Quebec Volume 30

Meer over het boek

The examination of the cultural and economic independence of the Crees in eastern James Bay reveals the complexities of their historical relationship with the Hudson's Bay Company, which was initially mutually beneficial. However, the book argues that the Canadian government's twentieth-century efforts to administer remote regions have posed significant threats to the Cree way of life, overshadowing past partnerships and highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by Indigenous communities in maintaining their autonomy.
