To the Dene, the land owns them, not the other way around, and it is central to their livelihood and very way of being.

With mining came jobs and investment, but also road-building, pipelines, and toxic waste, which scarred the landscape, and alcohol, drugs, and debt, which deformed a way of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRead more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImage and Condition Note -\u003c\/b\u003e We typically have multiple copies of the titles we sell.
