Time bomb : Canada and the First Nations

Summary: There are few greater tragedies than a war waged by a society against itself. As Time Bomb shows, a catastrophic confrontation between Canada's so-called "settler" and First Nations communities is not only feasible, it is, in theory, inevitable. Grievances, prejudice, and other factors all make the likelihood of a First Nations uprising very real. Time Bomb describes how a nationwide insurgency could unfold; how the "usual" police and military reactions to First Nations protests would only worsen things; and how, on the other hand, innovative policies might defuse the smouldering time bomb in our midst. The question all Canadians must answer is this: Will we act together to extinguish the threat of a Native uprising, or will we fail and suffer the disaster of Canada's peaceful and orderly society exploding?
