Alternate Title
The Mobilization of Native Canadians During the Second World War
Discusses the government's attempts to enforce compulsory service and Aboriginals' reactions to them. Argues that while the government refused to listen to protests, in the end practical considerations such as geographic isolation and health of potential recruits, and barriers of language and culture caused the policy to fail.
