Canada’s identity is tremendously challenging to delineate, due to encompassing a vast population of various cultures, traditions, and values spanning an enormous landmass. From various historical perspectives, Canadian identity has changed over the course of the last century - valuing discrete ideologies through various time periods. Due to various government policies and acts, as well as reformed beliefs and ideas regarding large social issues, Canada’s identity has shifted and constantly renewed its identity over the course of the past half century.

Being a Canadian is a blessing. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity that garners protection against low wages, provides a platform propelling diversified learning environments and functions under a democratic government system operating for the common good. Adopting a pretentious framework, being able to acknowledge Canadian identity within the following context is the actual blessing. Canadian identity itself is submerged within an array of events, individuals and time periods that have significantly contributed to her development and fundamentally, idealization as a unified nation.

In writing Northern Frontier, Northern Homeland, Thomas Berger faced the challenge of articulating the interests of Northern Canada's native peoples, who adamantly protested the proposal to establish a pipeline in the region. He was motivated by the desire to present their concerns in a way that could not be trivialized by the Canadian government.

History and perceived economic necessity have brought the white and the native societies into contact on our northern frontier...” (161) The nature of the conflict between indigenous and industrial interests, Berger's emphasis on native testimony, and the social justice aspirations of Berger's report indicate that the critical paradigm is best suited for the study of the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry.

National mythologies, as argued by Razack (2002), are “stories about a nation’s origins and history . . . [that] enable citizens to think of themselves as part of a community defining who belongs and who does not belong to the nation” (Razack 2002: 2). There is an idea where Europeans and the immigrants imported to build Canada were equally respected and treated. These immigrants were the necessary immigrants needed for the “Canadian imaginary”, however when the construction projects were complete, laws which excluded Black and Asian people, were set up and immigrant were essentially displaced as they were deemed unsuited to the harsh ‘northern kingdom’ climate only suitable for ‘northern races’ (Mackey 2002). Many Natives who lived in the Ontario and Quebec areas were essentially pushed northwards to escape the presence of the Europeans settlers, and the Natives who remained were isolated from society on land reserves (Mackey 2002). This generated the idea that Indigenous people were disappearing with the progression of civilization and settlers (Mackey 2002) or “presumed to be mostly dead or assimilated” (Razack 2002: 2) as grade-school history taught us, as one member of the discussion brought up. Our group agreed that pushing the Indigenous out of the Ontario and Quebec areas was solely beneficial for the Europeans as they got to keep the preferable environments, and the Indigenous were pushed to northern, harsher conditions. Once those of non-European decent where displaced, Canada was viewed as “superior to the USA because [of] the racial similarities of the English and French [that] made the country homogenous” (Mackey 2002: 31) – a desirable state of uniformity to

Born in 1943, to a Greek mother and a Cherokee father, Thomas King moved to Canada in the late 1970’s to take a teaching job at the University of Lethbridge. There, he met his wife, Helen. Together they delved into Canadian society and its multicultural essence. However, being of First Nation descendant, King noticed that in Canada, the Aboriginal population was not as integrated into Canadian society as it was preserved. Canadian society had a reputation of being multicultural, accepting and seeking to add other cultural values, practices and morals too it 's own. However, King held the perspective that Canada misrepresented and undermined its Aboriginal inhabitants. Therefore in 2012, King wrote a history book, that attempted to bring to light the Canadian-Aboriginal relations and a First Nation perspective of their representation, history and political desires to the forefront of readers attention. The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America, was the end result that encompassed King’s beliefs, findings and objectives. Therefore, it is the purpose of this essay to discuss and analyze The Inconvenient Indian by identifying its key aims, highlighting and analyzing its major themes and core arguments, and identify any of the book’s shortcomings.

Canada’s North is often seen as the country’s national identity. In actuality, it stems far beyond the isolated land of picturesque vistas used to often describe Canada’s rugged landscape.

The North links the diversity of Indigenous peoples to the land they have occupied for centuries, a place where they have built their own distinct culture, language and identity. Those ideals have been increasingly challenged in the twenty-first century, in spite of the imagined sense of ‘Canadianness’ in the North but because of the transitioning economy and environment in the North. This paper will explore the challenges facing Canada’s northern resource economy and the socio-cultural implications on the regions Aboriginal population.
