Summary: | Nicholas Shrubsole’s What Has No Place, Remains is an important contribution to the discussion of Indigenous religious freedom in Canada. Shrubsole provides a thorough and compelling analysis of how the Canadian Constitution’s multiple apparent promises to Indigenous Peoples have often gone unfulfilled.Shrubsole’s book brings together the various ways in which Indigenous groups have sought to have their religious practices protected in Canada, and the different difficulties associated with each. In 1982, Canada’s Constitution was amended to protect “freedom of conscience and religion” and “recognize and affirm” the “existing aboriginal and treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples.” Both provisions offer hope for constitutional protection from legislative and executive infringements, but have so far proven disappointing to advocates of Indigenous Peoples’ religious freedom. |
