A follow-up to Claiming Anishinaabe, Gehl v Canada is the story of
Lynn Gehl's lifelong journey of survival against the nation-state's
constant genocidal assault against her existence. While Canada set
up its colonial powersincluding the Supreme Court, House of
Commons, Senate Chamber, and the Residences of the Prime Minister
and Governor Generalon her traditional Algonquin territory,
usurping the riches and resources of the land, she was pushed to
the margins, exiled to a life of poverty in Toronto's inner-city.
With only beads in her pocket, Gehl spent her entire life fighting
back, and now offers an insider analysis of Indian Act litigation,
the narrow remedies the court imposes, and of obfuscating
parliamentary discourse, as well as an important critique of the
methodology of legal positivism. Drawing on social identity and
Indigenous theories, the author presents Disenfranchised Spirit
Theory, revealing insights into the identity struggles facing
Indigenous Peoples to this day.
