Bois-Brûlés: The Untold Story of the Métis of Western Québec

by Michel Bouchard

Book Overview

We think of M tis as having exclusively Prairie roots, but what about their presence in Quebec? The province doesn't recognize a historical M tis community within its territory, and the M tis National Council contests the existence of any M tis east of Ontario. Quebec residents who seek recognition as M tis under the Canadian Constitution therefore face an uphill legal and political battle. Who is right?
