""Deeply informed by 50 years of struggle helping Indigenous peoples challenge Canada’s legal system, Olthuis weaves stories of confrontation and grace in critical yet hopeful ways. On Dismantling Settler Colonialism reveals an insider’s fifty-year struggle for Indigenous self-determination through a lifetime of careful listening and bold advocacy alongside Indigenous communities and leaders."" -- John Borrows, Loveland Chair in Indigenous Law, Faculty of Law, University of Toronto ""Reading On Dismantling Settler Colonialism has been both deeply moving and profoundly instructive. I recognize the truth embedded in every page of Olthuis’ account. Through his detailed chronicling of legal battles, treaty negotiations, and community struggles, Olthuis demonstrates that authentic reconciliation requires not only acknowledgment of past wrongs but also profound and structural change that strengthens the governance of Indigenous peoples in full. It reminds us settlers how much we have yet to learn from Indigenous peoples and from those who have had the privilege of walking these paths of justice alongside them."" -- Priscylla Joca, Assistant Professor of Law, Toronto Metropolitan University
