Notes


An examination of the Prairie Métis and the formation of the Canada–United States border during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Drawing on archival sources from both countries, Hogue traces the emergence of Métis communities within the northern prairie borderlands and examines the effects of boundary surveys, the fur trade, treaty-making, settlement, military enforcement, scrip, and government policies on Métis mobility, identity, and landholding. With notes, bibliography, and index.
