Indigenous peoples are vastly overrepresented in the Canadian
criminal justice system. The Canadian government has framed this
disproportionate victimization and criminalization as being an
"Indian problem." In The Colonial Problem, Lisa Monchalin
challenges the myth of the "Indian problem" and encourages readers
to view the crimes and injustices affecting Indigenous peoples from
a more culturally aware position. She analyzes the consequences of
assimilation policies, dishonoured treaty agreements, manipulative
legislation, and systematic racism, arguing that the
overrepresentation of Indigenous peoples in the Canadian criminal
justice system is not an Indian problem but a colonial one.
