Since before Confederation, colonial governments have used this legal mechanism to address deep societal challenges. Whether it is a public inquiry, truth commission, or royal commission, the chosen leadership and processes fundamentally affect its ability to achieve its mandate. Kim Stanton provides in-depth critical analysis of these factors to offer practical guidance on how an inquiry can do more than have its recommendations quietly gather dust on a shelf. She argues that even if recommendations are initially ignored, holding an inquiry can create a dialogue about issues of public importance that prepares the way for attitudinal change and policy development. As a forthright examination of the institutional design of public inquiries, Reconciling Truths acknowledges the risks inherent in their use. It also affirms their potential to shift the dominant Canadian narrative over time."-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Inquiries in Canada -- The Mackenzie Valley pipeline inquiry -- Inquiries and residential schools -- Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission -- Inquiries and the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous woman and girls. 530 $a Issued also in electronic formats. 650 0 $a Governmental investigations $z Canada. 650 0 $a Truth commissions $z Canada. 650 7 $a Governmental investigations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00945690 650 7 $a Truth commissions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01158251 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 776 08 $i Online version: $a Stanton, Kim (Kim P.) $t Reconciling truths. $d Vancouver, British Columbia : UBC Press, 2021 $z 9780774866675 $z 9780774866675 $w (OCoLC)1262657706 830 0 $a Law and society series (Vancouver, B.C.) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011314.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BCEF6CF4A5B811ECBC4A196C2DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
