This work is a proposal for a bold political and institutional infrastructure for Canada’s First Nations as a vehicle for future socio-economic improvements. Indigenous Nationals, Canadian Citizens is comprised of six parts: Part 1, an Introduction and Socio-Economic Overview; Part 2, A Voyage to Hell and Back: From First Contact to Sesquicentennial; Chapter 3 Milestones in Canada-Indigenous Relations: From Columbus to the Constitution Act, 1982 including Supplement 3.1: The Iroquois in North America; Part 3, Indigenous Rights and Reconciliation; Part 4, Analytical Perspectives; Part 5, Voyages of Recovery, and a Part 6, a Pathway Forward for Treaty First Nations. Part 4, Analytical Perspectives, is comprised of four substantive chapters devoted to creating a political and institutional framework enabling Canada’s First Peoples to be at the same time Indigenous Nationals and Canadian citizens. The author suggests that this combination will close the socio-economic gap with fellow Canadians. Chapter 7 discusses the analytical backdrop through three previously identified models: Enfranchisement: Canadian Nationals\/Canadian Citizens using the Trudeau\/Chretien and Flanagan models; Institutionalized Parallelism: Indigenous Nationals\/Indigenous Citizens; and, Indigenous Nationals\/Canadian Citizens – a Nation-Canadian state relationship. Chapter 8 includes Land Claim agreements that implement the Indigenous nationals\/Canadian citizens model.
