Clean, tight, unmarked; three small marks on bottom edge; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; Drawing on a strikingly wide range of historical and primary sources, including interviews and government documents secured through the Access to Information Act, this book dispels the common mythology and disinformation surrounding the causes and events of the Oka Crisis. Winegard highlights the relevance of Oka, as an integral part of Canadian history, towards the formation of governmental policy and the active participation of Indigenous Canadians in their ongoing effort to shape and alter their social a political realities within Canada and their resistance to cultural assimilation. This innovative study also engages in a detailed probe of the most controversial and volatile Canadian Forces internal security operation of the 20th century.
