Description

This dissertation identifies the origins of the present disparity of health conditions between Indian communities and mainstream society in western Canada. The relationship between economics and health of Indian populations is examined by focusing on the time period from the early eighteenth century to the end of the nineteenth century. The dissertation notes how the geographical distribution of aboriginal societies was affected by the fur trade and the subsequent diseases introduced by Europeans. When the Canadian government opened up the west for agricultural development after the bison had become extinct, aboriginal populations went through a period of malnutrition. The author argues that the Dominion used its famine relief strategy to subjugate aboriginal populations in order to implement economic and political order. As a result of the period of malnutrition, the Indians of the plains endured a tuberculosis epidemic during the 1880's. Within fifteen years of signing Treaties, many plains populations declined to their demographic nadir.
