I encourage all businesses who want to take my money to pay your employees fairly... $15/hr or more + scheduling integrity. When I'm shopping now, I'm asking and if you aren't I'm leaving your store.https://twitter.com/CBCAlerts/status/1080616671818248192 …

Another book review from 2018 in the Canadian Journal of History brings up the same issues as the previous two: the authors all-but-ignore the past 2 decades of research on the topic at hand!

The author goes on, "I believe that the authors purposely chose to pick the sources that support their views of history and ignoring those sources that disagree with their distorted view of Michigan history."

Another review in 2018, this one by a member of the French-Canadian Historical Society of Michigan, is much more damning. "The fatal flaw is the fact that the authors relied on an odd assortment of underlying sources ranging from ... https://tinyurl.com/y8fcuwq6

In other words, they play "on tired trope of the French as good colonizers." This is critique that comes up over and over again in recent book reviews of their work - the authors indigenize French settlers using Euro-imperialist nostalgia.

@MC_Giroux wrote a review essay of 6 books (!) on Metis issues in the recent issue@Acadiensis. "Songs Upon the Rivers suffers from an unclear trajectory and startling lack of engagement with contemporary scholarship in cognate areas" (145).#raceshiftingpic.twitter.com/Ks1BCEZhPf

If that book is anything like Bouchard & Malette's previous effort, "Songs Upon the Rivers" (2016), then we can expect poorly-sourced, historically revisionist tract that ignores Indigenous scholars. Here are some reviews

More to the point, Algonquin people and governments have been vocal in their opposition to these recent claims of there being a distinct, rights-bearing "Metis" people in Algonquin territory.

Seb Malette, Michel Bouchard & Guillaume Marcotte wrote a 350+ page "expert" report supporting the "Maniwaki metis" organization in a court case in 2016. That's the same org who has 100s of members without any Indigenous ancestry:https://twitter.com/i/moments/954016786869116928 …
