Dear Chloe,
Thanks for your comment. I'm glad that you found Ian Mosby's presentation useful. Others who attended also appreciated it and got a lot out of the talk. It is also important that his research into a truly harrowing crime against Native peoples gets some attention, including in the media.
You might be interested in a newly published book that deals with another aspect of how the aboriginal peoples of Canada were impoverished and starved in a much earlier historical period. It is called "Clearing the Plains" by James Daschuk. The book can be borrowed from the library. Here is the link: www.torontopubliclibrary.ca/detail.jsp?Entt=RDM3031693&R=3031693
Thanks again for taking the time to comment.
