Sometimes, they have chosen to grieve in private over the desecration and even destruction of their sacred sites. At other times, they have mounted public protests, ranging from public information campaigns to on-the-ground resistance. Of late, they have also taken their fight to the courts." "First Nations Sacred Sites in Canada's Courts is the first work to examine how the courts have responded. Informed by elements of a general theory of sacred sites and supported by a thorough analysis of nearly a dozen cases, the book demonstrates not merely that the courts have failed to treat First Nations sacred sites fairly but also why they have failed to do so. The book does not end on a wholly critical note, however, but suggests practical ways in which courts can improve their handling of the issues. Finally, it shows that Canada too has something profound at stake in the struggle of First Nations peoples for their sacred sites."--Jacket 410 0$aLaw and society series (Vancouver, B.C.) 606 $aIndians of North America$xLegal status, laws, etc$zCanada 606 $aIndians of North America$xLand tenure$zCanada 606 $aIndians of North America$zCanada$xClaims 615 0$aIndians of North America$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xLand tenure 615 0$aIndians of North America$xClaims. 700 $aRoss$b Michael Lee$f1956-$01642944 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817582103321 996 $aFirst Nations sacred sites in Canada's courts$93987900 997 $aUNINA
