Presented by the Western Association for Canadian Studies:

Author Gary N. Wilson read from and discussed Nested Federalism and Inuit Governance in the Canada Arctic (2020) co-authored with Christopher Alcantara and Thierry Rodon. From the book cover, “The Canadian federal system was never designed to recognize Indigenous governance, and it has resisted change. But Indigenous communities have successfully negotiated the creation of self-governing regions. Most of these are situated within existing units of the Canadian federation, creating forms of nested federalism. This governance model is transforming Canada as it reformulates the relationship between Indigenous peoples and the state. Nested Federalism … traces the journey toward self-governance in three northern regions.”

Gary N. Wilson is a professor of political science at the University of Northern British Columbia and aAssociate director of the Western Association for Canadian Studies.

Ross Burkhardt, professor of Political Science at Boise State University and executive director of the Western Association for Canadian Studies and Nadine Fabbi, managing director at the Canadian Studies Center in the Henry M.
