À propos de cet audio
An urgent, informed, intimate condemnation of the Canadian state and its failure to deliver justice to Indigenous people by national best-selling author and former Crown prosecutor Harold R. Johnson.
"The night of the decision in the Gerald Stanley trial for the murder of Colten Boushie, I received a text message from a retired provincial court judge. He was feeling ashamed for his time in a system that was so badly tilted. I too feel this way about my time as both defence counsel and as a Crown prosecutor; that I didn't have the courage to stand up in the court room and shout 'Enough is enough.' This book is my act of taking responsibility for what I did, for my actions and inactions." (Harold R. Johnson)
In early 2018, the failures of Canada's justice system were sharply and painfully revealed in the verdicts issued in the deaths of Colten Boushie and Tina Fontaine. The outrage and confusion that followed those verdicts inspired former Crown prosecutor and bestselling author Harold R. Johnson to make the case against Canada for its failure to fulfill its duty under Treaty to effectively deliver justice to Indigenous people, worsening the situation and ensuring long-term damage to Indigenous communities.
In this direct, concise, and essential volume, Harold R. Johnson examines the justice system's failures to deliver "peace and good order" to Indigenous people. He explores the part that he understands himself to have played in that mismanagement, drawing on insights he has gained from the experience; insights into the roots and immediate effects of how the justice system has failed Indigenous people, in all the communities in which they live; and insights into the struggle for peace and good order for Indigenous people now.

Histoire
Drawing on his years of experience as a Crown Prosecutor in Treaty 6 territory, Harold Johnson challenges listeners to change the story we tell ourselves about the drink that goes by many names—booze, hooch, spirits, sauce, and the evocative “firewater.” Confronting the harmful stereotype of the “lazy, drunken Indian,” and rejecting medical, social, and psychological explanations of the roots of alcoholism, Johnson cries out for solutions, not diagnoses, and shows how alcohol continues to kill so many.

Approached by an ecumenical society representing many faiths, from Judeo-Christians to fellow members of First Nations, Harold R. Johnson agreed to host a group who wanted to hear him speak about the power of storytelling. This book is the outcome of that gathering. In The Power of Story, Johnson explains the role of storytelling in every aspect of human life, from personal identity to history and the social contracts that structure our societies, and illustrates how we can direct its potential to re-create and reform not only our own lives, but the life we share.

Histoire
In arresting, but harrowing, prose, James Daschuk examines the roles that Old World diseases, climate, and, most disturbingly, Canadian politics—the politics of ethnocide—played in the deaths and subjugation of thousands of Indigenous people in the realization of Sir John A. Macdonald’s “National Dream.” It was a dream that came at great expense: the present disparity in health and economic well-being between Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations, and the lingering racism and misunderstanding that permeates the national consciousness to this day.

Histoire
There is one question Canadians have asked Jody Wilson-Raybould more than any other: What can I do to help advance reconciliation? This has been true from her time as a leader of British Columbia’s First Nations, as a Member of Parliament, as Minister of Justice and Attorney General, within business communities, and when having conversations with people. Whether speaking as individuals, communities, organizations, or governments, people want to take concrete and tangible action that will make real change. They just need to know how to get started, or to take the next step.

Book for these Times
What an interesting and timely book. I’m surprised there wasn’t more buzz about it. It was actually probably published just a bit too early, as, while it was published as a book about Indigenous rights, it also has implications for BLM. As a non-Indigenous Canadian, I learned more about Canadian history, particularly around what was and wasn’t included in some treaties. The book is very focussed on solutions and action, which is very exciting. The most advanced research on trauma,
intergenerational trauma and justice all comes together in this book. The discussion on alcohol is also linked and was eye-opening. As Gabor Mate writes, don’t ask why people are addicted, ask where the pain that they need to forget via their addictions comes from (of course, he says it much more eloquently). There is so much good info in here for the Canadian justice system and also, like I mentioned above, for the BLM movement. And, like all good books, I also learned something (or reinforced an idea) about parenting: punishment rarely serves a purpose and in fact, can cause irreparable harm. Instead, teaching as well as enabling people to redeem themselves makes for much healthier people and communities.

Truth telling
Thank you, Harold, for sharing your story and the wisdom you have gleaned from your perspective. This "truth telling" is a must read for those involved in our justice system. It's eloquent treatise describing a better way, a way that belongs to this place.

This was eye opening.
I hope that the day will come when Indigenous people are treated with fairness.
Indian law treats the accused with Indigenous understanding and fairness.

Essential reading
This is essential reading for anyone working in the criminal justice field in Canada. Essential reading for anyone considering judicial reform in Canada. It really should be essential reading for any high school Canadian history class and essential reading for any University Indigenous studies course. A very important, well thought out, and simply written book.

Insightful and important
This should be required reading in Canadian schools. Clearly, government policies and judicial practices are not serving society well - Indigenous or mainstream Canada.

It’s so informative & so well written that I’m reading it a second time!!
This was a well written, informative, solid pieces of writing; holding unique unexpected treasured moments to a few tears in between. If you’re educated in law or are familiar with indigenous rights & land claims, you’ll really appreciate this. Honestly, It’s such a good book that I’m re-reading it yet again!
