But is the military's interest in Aboriginal lands new? Battle Grounds analyzes a century of government�Aboriginal interaction and negotiation to explore how the Canadian military came to use Aboriginal lands for training. It examines what the process reveals about the larger and evolving relationship between governments and Native communities, and how increasing Aboriginal assertiveness and activism have affected the issue.Studies in Canadian military history.Indians of North AmericaLand tenureCanadaIndians of North AmericaCanadaGovernment relationsIndians of North AmericaCanadaClaimsCanadaHistory, MilitaryIndians of North AmericaLand tenureIndians of North AmericaGovernment relations.Indians of North AmericaClaims.323.1197071Lackenbauer P.
