For decades, Senator Sinclair has fearlessly educated Canadians about the painful truths of our history. He was the first Indigenous judge in Manitoba, and only the second Indigenous judge in Canadian history. He was the Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and remains one of the foremost voices on Reconciliation. And now, for the first time, he will share his full story - and his full vision for our nation - with readers across Canada. Drawing on Senator Sinclair's unique experiences, and his perspectives regarding Indigenous identity, human rights, and justice in Canada, Who We Are will examine the roles of history, resistance, and resilience in the pursuit of finding that path forward, and healing the damaged relationship between Indigenous Peoples and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada. And in doing so, it will reveal Senator Sinclair's life in a new and direct way, exploring how all of these experiences shaped him as an Anishinaabe man, father, and grandfather. Structured around the four questions that have long shaped Senator Sinclair's thinking and worldview - Where do I come from? Where am I going? Why am I here? Who am I? - Who We Are will take readers into the story of his remarkable life as never before, while challenging them to embrace an inclusive vision for our shared future.
