Description
"After being 'rounded up' into reserves, after the imposition of the Indian Act and their forced re-education in the residential schools, can the Batchewana First Nations continue to survive as a people in this urban environment? Can we afford to allow their culture to die when it puts the preservation of the environment above all else? These people put their case. Emotionally. Intellectually. Persuasively. 'First Nations are not the problem. They are the solution to the problem.'"
