Dark Legacy takes a close and critical look at the historical and societal events that decided the fate of Canada’s missing Native women. This book documents the bleak life stories of Aboriginal women whose bodies were found at the Pickton farm, and in the back alleys of Edmonton and Winnipeg. Examples of unfair treatment from Canada’s judicial system, and the indifferent, often hostile attitude of the police and how it affected not only native women but also native men. Dudley George came to a violent end at the hands of the OPP; Neil Stonechild was left to freeze to death by the Regina Police and Frank Paul’s death was the result of Vancouver Police negligence.

Dark Legacy is a controversial book that is long overdue, it will set the record straight concerning the volatile relationship between First Nations, the Canadian government and police forces across the land. Changes cannot be implemented until the history of Aboriginal people is understood, only then can the injustices of the past be replaced by a new governmental and judiciary attitude that will stamp out racism and set a new platform for Aboriginal justice.
