Pushed to the historical and social margins for too long, Eastern Métis reviews the record of these sidelined communities and the effort to reclaim their past. This book is the first-ever scholarly endeavor to trace the emergence and consolidation of Métis identities from the Atlantic Coast to Ontario and beyond.
In Eastern Métis, Michel Bouchard, Sébastien Malette, and Siomonn Pulla demonstrate the historical and social evidence for the origins and continued existence of Métis communities across Ontario, Quebec, and the Canadian Maritimes as well as the West. Contributors to this edited collection explore archival and historical records that challenge narratives which exclude the possibility of Métis communities and identities in central and eastern Canada. Taking a continental rhizomatic approach, this book provides a rich and nuanced view of what it means to be Métis.

Michel Bouchard is professor of anthropology at the University of Northern British Columbia. Sébastien Malette is associate professor in the Department of Law and Legal Studies at Carleton University, Ottawa. Siomonn Pulla is associate professor in the College of Interdisciplinary Studies at Royal Roads University.
