In Whom We Trust A Forum on Fiduciary Relationships [Recurso electrónico] : , Servicio en línea - Toronto: Irwin Law Inc., 2002 - 1 recurso electrónico

Since the time of contact, the relationship between Aboriginal Peoples and the governments of Canada has found its expression across negotiation tables, around healing circles, in funding and service agreements, in the Courts, and most importantly, in the lives of thousands of individuals. This relationship is often perceived as adversarial, disabling, characterized by mistrust, and conducive to disenchantment. Yet, it is frequently labelled as “fiduciary,” a term that should normally spell trust, respect, and prosperity. In Whom We Trust explores the difficult concept of a fiduciary relationship in theory and practice, in Canada and elsewhere in the world. The papers are written from a variety of perspectives. They bring together state-of-the-art knowledge of the history, understanding, and application of the fiduciary concept and speak to the future possibilities of the concept, its promises and its difficulties. The papers were originally presented at a conference held in London, Ontario. They have been thoroughly rewritten to take account of the comments and reactions of many interested and very thoughtful audience participants. On behalf of the Law Commission of Canada and the Association of Iroquois and Allied Indians, Irwin Law is very pleased to bring this important work to a broader audience.
