In the 1970s, both provinces signed so-called \"modern treaties\" with First Nations for the development of large hydro projects in Aboriginal territories. In recent times, however, the two provinces have diverged in their implementation, and public opinion of these agreements has ranged from celebratory to outrage. \u003cem\u003ePower Struggles\u003c\/em\u003e brings together perspectives on these issues from both scholars and activists. In debating the relative merits and limits of these agreements, they raise a crucial question: Is Canada on the eve of a new relationship with First Nations, or do the same colonial attitudes that have long characterized Canadian-Aboriginal relations still prevail?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thibault Martin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887557058\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887557057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Manitoba Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.88h x 6.48w x 0.99d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2008 pg. 54","brand":"Thibault Martin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962042274047,"sku":"9780887557057","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e2ac7a66-4e10-4b14-9f65-cd7cc05e4da6.jpg?v=1750649147","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/power-struggles-thibault-martin-9780887557057","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
