The Final Agreement of
Canada's Nisga'a Treaty is a major milestone in the history of aboriginal and
government negotiations. This ground-breaking treaty recognizes the right of
the Nisga'a people to live where they have always lived, and to own and control
the land they live on. The World Is Our Witness traces the history of
the Nisga'a and their claim, details the elements of the treaty, and offers an
analysis of the characters, political intrigue, and opposition to this historic
deal. It provides an essential foundation for understanding the future of
Native American land claims and battles for recognition. Author and Chief
Federal Negotiator Tom Molloy offers an insider's view and a unique blend of
personal experience and historical documentation.
