Twenty-five years ago, Aboriginal and Treaty Rights were included in Section 35 of the Constitution Act in 1982. They provided the basis for recognition of the unique status of Indigenous Peoples within Canada.

Different visions of the possibilities and limitations of Section 35 are portrayed in this important collection.
