Excerpt:
Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, “Oui The People?: Conflicting Visions of Self Determination in Québec”:
“First, to describe a community as ‘minority’ and to give it the label ‘our most important [ethnic] minority’ projects something other than blindness to ethnicity. For Aboriginal peoples, constructed therein as a minority of ‘lesser importance,’ the allegiance with French Canadian nationalism is weak, if present at all. The allegiance does not seem to matter because in the views of the Parti-Québécois, the Aboriginal peoples are a minority whose status and rights yield to the majority French Québécois, the Aboriginal leader vigorously reject being cast as minorities.” (121)
