Power from the North
Author: Caroline Desbiens
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774824182
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
In the 1970s, Hydro-Qu?bec declared “We Are Hydro-Qu?b?cois.” The slogan symbolized the intimate ties that had emerged between hydroelectric development in the North and French Canadian aspirations in the South. Caroline Desbiens focuses on the first phase of the James Bay hydroelectric project to explore how this culture of hydroelectricity hastened the erasure of Aboriginal homelands and the manipulation of Northern Quebec’s material landscape. She concludes that truly sustainable resource development will depend on all actors bringing an awareness of their cultural histories and visions of nature, North, and nation to the negotiating table.

Aboriginal Autonomy and Development in Northern Quebec and Labrador
Author: Colin Scott
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774841087
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
The Canadian North is witness to some of the most innovative efforts by Aboriginal peoples to reshape their relations with "mainstream" political and economic structures. Northern Quebec and Labrador are particularly dynamic examples of these efforts, composed of First Nations territories that until the 1970s had never been subject to treaty but are subject to escalating industrial demands for natural resources. The essays in this volume illuminate key conditions for autonomy and development: the definition and redefinition of national territories as cultural orders clash and mix; control of resource bases upon which northern economies depend; and renewal and reworking of cultural identity.

Canada: The State of the Federation, 2012
Author: Loleen Berdahl
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 1553392116
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Regional resource disparities and the tensions they generate are a perennial Canadian topic. This edition of Canada: The State of the Federation presents essays on regions, resources, and the resiliency of the Canadian federal system. Contributors consider questions such as: to what extent do Canada’s natural resource industries benefit the Canadian economy? Do Canada’s federal institutions hinder or promote the ability of the economy to respond to global economic shifts? Do current intergovernmental structures allow for constructive dialogue about national policy issues? In responding to these and related questions, many of the authors touch on energy issues. Others consider the importance of functional institutions in a federal or multilevel context as an essential requirement for the effective resolution of issues. Together, the volume raises questions about the relationship of state and society, the importance of identity, trust, and moral legitimacy for the operation of our federal institutions, and the extent to which federal institutions are reinforced or placed under stress by societal structures. The theme of this volume was triggered by Richard Simeon, the outstanding scholar of federalism who passed away in October 2013, and it is dedicated in his honour.

Alliances and Treaties with Indigenous Peoples of Québec

Publisher: Presses de l'Université Laval
ISBN: 2766302727
Category : History

Pages : 372
Book Description
In the context of the recognition of the Maliseet of Viger First Nation (MVFN, now Wolastoqiyik Wahsipekuk) by Canada (1987) and Québec (1989), we propose to examine how and why this nation was forgotten. The story is set in a long-term perspective and in the broader context of the official recognition of Indigenous Peoples in Canada (1982), of Indigenous Nations in Québec (1985 and 2000) and of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007).
