Based on the experience of the Innu resident in Quebec and Labrador, this book is intended to be a work of advocacy for the full extent of the rights of indigenous peoples whose landholdings have been devastated in the Canadian land claims process. As things stand at present, the Innu who are resident in government villages in Quebec have lost their rights to all their land and this makes them almost unique among indigenous groups in Canada. Those peoples who, unlike the Innu, have signed land deals purporting to grant them rights over their own land have, in effect, lost 90 per cent of their ancestral land. Using the experience of the Innu as a template, I shall question Canadian sovereignty over indigenous lands which have been taken without the free, prior and informed consent of the indigenous peoples concerned. More important, my aim is to demonstrate the disconnect between the negotiation process and the reality of human suffering which loss of land entails for the Innu of the Ungava Peninsula and other indigenous peoples.
