Alcantara, Christopher 1978- (author.). Nelles, Jen, 1979- (author.).

Summary: "Much of the coverage surrounding the relationship between Indigenous communities and the Crown in Canada has focused on the federal, provincial, and territorial governments. Yet it is at the local level where some of the most important and significant partnerships are being made between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples."--
