"With blistering clarity, Michelle Good exposes the contradictions at the heart of Canada, but also imagines beyond them, setting out a specific vision for an Indigenous future governed by us. Good's essays, woven with personal testimony, are deeply researched and traverse great swaths of history and policy; they are also very rousing and moving. No Canadian can feign ignorance of the Indigenous struggle when this book is within arm's reach." -- Billy-Ray Belcourt, author of A Minor Chorus "Good reminds us what the truth in Truth and Reconciliation actually requires of all of us: Indigenous peoples and Canadians. Addressing storytelling and historical myth-making, this book would have changed my nineteen-year-old world had it been available and rendered normative for my teachers. Good's work is formidable, elemental and reminiscent of Cardinal's Unjust Society. This work, should be required reading for every Canadian. Smart, generous and insightful.

'There is no such thing as Crown Land. It is all Indigenous land.' Good writes. This truth resonates. Serves notice: it is time." -- Dr. Tracey Lindberg, Law Professor, author of Birdie "Truth Telling is at once heartfelt, instructive, and authentic, expertly exploring the key issues that have shaped the Indigenous reality in Canada. This collection is an indispensable resource.

" -- Waubgeshig Rice, author of Moon of the Crusted Snow "As Canadians search for a national approach to reconciliation. this book reminds us of how we arrived at this moment.[and] is the kind of reference that will help us navigate our fraught journey." -- Dr. Eldon Yellowhorn, Professor of Indigenous Studies, Simon Fraser University.
