For thousands of years the Mushuah Innu roamed strong and free. They survived on one of the harshest lands on earth, the tundra of the great Labrador. After 50 years under white control in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, they struggle daily to survive Canada. In 1993, the Canadian Human Rights Commission released a report condemning the Federal government’s treatment of the Innu. The report came to a shocking conclusion. It found the federal government had been in violation of the constitutional rights of the Innu for more than 50 years. The Mushuau Innu: Surviving Canada explores the devastating impact these constitutional violations have had on the Innu and their future as a people.
