Publisher's Synopsis
At once bound by and beyond the constitution, Métis peoples occupy an unstable position in Canadian law. While scholars debate the scope of Métis constitutional rights, reconciliation cannot be achieved without confronting indigenous experiences with colonization. In Bead by Bead, contributors unpack the ongoing denial of Métis land, resource, and sovereignty claims under Canadian law. This nuanced analysis of how current legal doctrine limits Métis rights reveals the complexity of indigenous and settler relationships and uncovers new avenues toward a more just future.
