History’s Pendulum: from Exclusion to Inclusion
Explains the case for Aboriginal inclusion as distinctive from other minorities. Canada’s First Peoples, first treated as companions and neighbours by early settlers, were then excluded from the social fabric of Canada by rigorous policies (themselves the model for South African Apartheid) that lasted more than 120 years. Inclusion is the reversal of that grim history.
