“…Just because we are defined a certain way doesn't mean-and it might impact of how that reality hits the road-it indeed doesn't control the reality. 17 The efficacy of Indigenous resistance to colonial settlement, violence and erasure is well documented (Blomley 1996;Lawrence 2004;Smith 2005;Westra 1999). Here, while settler law may arguably be engaged in the biopolitical management of the Sinixt in the context of their resistances, the reburials and occupation nevertheless express the continuity of Sinixt relationality and entitlement to land, and law and sovereignty.…”

“…MLTC members, like other Canadian First Nations, used a road blockade to influence resource management decisions and publicize demands. Blocking roads is a tactic Indigenous Peoples use to draw public attention to their concerns and assert pressure for state action to redress claims of injustice (Westra 1999; Ross and Smith 2002; Hayter 2003; Lertzman and Vredenburg 2005). This is an important tactic in Latin America as well.…”

“…Ces textes, systémati-quement publiés à Paris l'année qui suit leur rédaction 52 , forment un tout assez cohérent qui met en scène l'oeuvre d'évangélisation des Jésuites en montrant le délicat travail d'intégration de la religion chrétienne et de sa culture dans l'univers païen des « Sauvages ». Ces textes ont bien sûr été déjà amplement étudiés 53 , en 20 TANGENCE particulier par les historiens, mais l'intérêt pour notre sujet tient au fait que toute la documentation existante n'a pas encore été entièrement publiée 54 et la latinité de ces textes à peu près jamais étudiée, à l'exception notable d'un article récent dans lequel Haijo Westra et Milo Nikolic abordent spécifiquement cette question 55 , en confortant l'idée que nos missionnaires jésuites du XVII e siècle avaient une vraie culture latine classique 56 . Aux Relations mêmes, il faut ajouter la masse des lettres et documents connexes édités scrupuleusement, pour les années 1602-1661, par Lucien Campeau, et recueillis aussi, mais moins exhaustivement, par Reuben G. Thwaites.…”
