Description:
A follow-up to <I>Claiming Anishinaabe, Gehl v Canada</I> is the story of Lynn Gehl&rsquo;s lifelong journey of survival against the nation-state&rsquo;s constant genocidal assault against her existence. While Canada set up its colonial powers&mdash;including the Supreme Court, House of Commons, Senate Chamber, and the Residences of the Prime Minister and Governor General&mdash;on her traditional Algonquin territory, usurping the riches and resources of the land, she was pushed to the margins, exiled to a life of poverty in Toronto&rsquo;s inner-city.<BR /><BR />With only beads in her pocket, Gehl spent her entire life fighting back, and now offers an insider analysis of <I>Indian Act</I> litigation, the narrow remedies the court imposes, and&#160;of obfuscating parliamentary discourse,&#160;as well as&#160;an&#160;important critique of the methodology of legal&#160;positivism. Drawing on social identity and Indigenous theories, the author&#160;presents&#160;Disenfranchised Spirit Theory, revealing insights into the identity struggles facing Indigenous Peoples to this day.
