This book makes a compelling plea for non-Aboriginal Canadians to undergo a process of reconciliation, and decolonization in order to fully participate in a joint healing process with Aboriginal Canadians. The text argues that non-Aboriginal Canadians must abandon the myth of their ancestors as peacemakers and recognized the destruction felt by Aboriginal communities throughout history.
