3. A Narrow Vision: Duncan Campbell Scott and the Administration of Indian Affairs in Canada,


E. Brian Titley “Brian Titley chronicles Scott's career in the
Department of Indian Affairs and evaluates developments in Native
health, education, and welfare between 1880 and 1932. He shows how
Scott's response to challenges such as the making of treaties in
northern Ontario, land claims in British Columbia, and the status of the
Six Nations caused persistent difficulties and made Scott's term of
office a turbulent one.” UBC Press




4. Truth and Indignation: Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission on Indian Residential Schools, Ronald Niezen


“Truth and Indignation offers the first close
and critical assessment of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission as it
is unfolding. Niezen uses interviews with survivors and oblate priests
and nuns, as well as testimonies, texts, and visual materials produced
by the Commission to raise important questions.” University of Toronto Press Publishing
