A milestone in Canadian interdisciplinary scholarship, this book repays the effort it demands. If Northrop Frye was correct in diagnosing the central Canadian question as \"where is here?\" then this book shows \"here\" to be a complex place in which healing and hope are yet to be achieved but can be imagined differently. \" -- Diane Brydon, Distinguished Professor and holder of the Canada Research Chair in Globalization and Cultural Studies, University of Manitoba University Affairs, December 3, 2014. 'Reconciling Canada is the first text to comprehensively unpack Canada's unique position in history, marking it as an important contribution to both Canadian and reconciliation studies.' -- David Gaertner Canadian Literature Spring 2014 '\"A historicization of redress\" is a stated objective of the collection, and the editors have marshalled expertise from across the disciplines to achieve this end.' -- Forrest D.
