Aboriginal citizenship and federalism : exploring non-territorial models = La citoyenneté autochtone et le fédéralisme : analyse de modèles non territoriaux / by David J. Elkins.: Z1-1991/1-41-69-PDF

This paper has been motivated by a concern about the ways in which thinking about any topic can become hostage to habit. Even (maybe particularly) for experts on a topic, assumptions and frameworks can be taken for granted, and fresh approaches may not be evaluated because they are not even considered. Thus, I have endeavoured to question presuppositions and to offer a framework of analysis that steps outside our customary views of Canada and of possible vehicles for Aboriginal self-government. The purpose of such reconsiderations ultimately aims at a richer conception of Aboriginal citizenship and, with any luck, a more meaningful Canadian citizenship as well.
