Description
Aboriginal self-government is still debated today but it is now part of land claims negotiations in Canada, the United States and other countries. The work done since the early 1970s by Inuit leaders, and particularly by John Amagoalik, has directly helped to put this concept forward in Canada and abroad. Reading Amagolik’s stirring life story will reveal the vision of hope that he has nurtured for Nunavut for more than 30 years. An inspiring vision of dignity and prosperity still burns in his words.
