Problems arise when they are treated as timeless models of unchanging truth that require unwavering deference and unquestioning obedience. Freedom and Indigenous Constitutionalism celebrates the emancipatory potential of Indigenous traditions, considers their value as the basis for good laws and good lives, and critiques the failure of Canadian constitutional traditions to recognize their significance."-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "Demonstrating how Canada's constitutional structures marginalize Indigenous peoples' ability to exercise power in the real world, John Borrows uses Ojibwe law, stories, and principles to suggest alternative ways in which Indigenous peoples can work to enhance freedom. Among the stimulating issues he approaches are the democratic potential of civil disobedience, the hazards of applying originalism rather than living tree jurisprudence in the interpretation of Aboriginal and treaty rights, American legislative actions that could also animate Indigenous self-determination in Canada, and the opportunity for Indigenous governmental action to address violence against women."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Indigenous peoples $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z Canada. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008123297 650 0 $a Ojibwa law. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh98007209 650 0 $a Indians of North America $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z Canada. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007100219 650 5 $a Native peoples $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z Canada. 650 5 $a Native peoples $z Canada $x Politics and government. 650 5 $a Native peoples $x Civil rights $z Canada. 650 7 $a Ojibwa law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01045122 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213012334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A39E8180EA0B11E7B6F5700597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
