Urban Indian Reserves: Forging New Relationships in Saskatchewan - Barron, Laurie; Garcea, Joseph

Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to upper inside corner; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This collection of essays examines the creation of four urban reserves, two of which were created amidst considerable acrimony and two of which were created in political  harmony between the local municipality and the First Nations band council. The contributors explain the political tensions and problems that arose; plus the legal, bureaucratic and social hurdles that had to be overcome. They discuss in detail the complex agreements reached between municipalities and First Nations to ensure bylaw and tax compatibility, along with particulars of how municipal services will be provided to these urban reserves. Many of the contributors highlight what should and what should not be done when creating an urban reserve.
