Canada's Indigenous Constitution reflects on the nature and sources of law in Canada, beginning with the conviction that the Canadian legal system has helped to engender the high level of wealth and security enjoyed by people across the country. However, longstanding disputes about the origins, legitimacy, and applicability of certain aspects of the legal system have led John Borrows to argue that Canada's constitution is incomplete without a broader acceptance of Indigenous legal traditions.With characteristic richness and eloquence, John Borrows explores legal traditions, the role of governments and courts, and the prospect of a multi-juridical legal culture, all with a view to understanding and improving legal processes in Canada. He discusses the place of individuals, families, and communities in recovering and extending the role of Indigenous law within both Indigenous communities and Canadian society more broadly. This is a major work by one of Canada's leading legal scholars, and an essential companion to Drawing Out Law: A Spirit's Guide.

Indigenous traditions are intriguing but I hate Borrow's repetitive writing style. Chapter 9 is of most help as it shows the proper way to do different law's applicability evaluation.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE BORROWS!!! It is so interesting to see how an Indigenous person, trained under the European legal system, tries to reconcile his own cultural beliefs with this individualistic personho...

It is so interesting to see how an Indigenous person, trained under the European legal system, tries to reconcile his own cultural beliefs with this individualistic personhood. Indeed, multi-legalism is not a mere fantasy, and at the root of accepting Indigenous legal traditions lies the willingness to learn. WE GOT THIS! (展开)
