商品簡介
In 2010, Canadians expressed pride over the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and protests at the G20 Toronto Summit. After arguing that both events linked being Canadian with doing good, Francis (women's studies and sociology, Brock U., Ontario, Canada) presents an auto-ethnography of her research among First Nations peoples, analysis of beavers' connotations in imperial Canadian imagery, diverse ethnic narratives on the railroad's expansion of the country, differing gender narratives on wilderness management, and Indian responses to portrayals of them. Illustrations include cartoons, ads for the Canadian Pacific Railway, art images, and photographs of lesbian rangers of the Lesbian National Parks and Services.
