Résumé
Timothy C. Winegard. For King and Kanata: Canadian Indians and the First World War. Winnipeg: University of Manitoba Press, 2012. 224 pp. Notes. Illustrations. Bibliography. Index. $24.95 sc. For King and Kanata provides an excellent overview of the mobilization of Native Canadians during World War I. Timothy Winegard emphasizes three themes in his attempt to expand the analysis of the contributions and experiences of more than 4,000 Indian soldiers beyond the traditional 'forgotten warrior' genre to encompass the national and international forces shaping their incorporation into Canada's military. For Winegard, the calculated mobilization of Aboriginals was a continuation of the pragmatic tradition to use Indian recruits when it suited the interests of the British and Canadian governments. Additionally, racial notions either stressing Aboriginal martial prowess or denigrating the cultural and intellectual capacity of Native soldiers shaped the contemporary attitudes of non-Native military and civilian administrators. In either case, these officials viewed military service as a tool for assimilation. Finally, the unprecedented levels of Aboriginal participation in the Great War were a potential catalyst for Native attainment of equal rights, but this hope proved illusory, and decades would pass before significant progress towards political, economic, and social justice was made. Winegard divides his book into four parts. In the first, he discusses the post-Confederation marginalization of Canada's Aboriginal population, the racialized image of the noble savage, and the lack of a well-defined government enlistment policy that denied Natives the opportunity to fight in the Boer War while not formally exempting them from military service under the terms of the 1904 Militia Act. The second and most detailed section of For King and Kanata examines Indian enlistment patterns and government mobilization policy from 1914 to 1918. Unsure of the legal status of Natives, Department of Indian Affairs officials initially discouraged Aboriginal enlistment despite widespread Native support for the war. But direct appeals issued by the Colonial Office in October and December 1915 urging indigenous populations in British Dominions to enlist caused Canadian officials to formally encourage Indian mobilization, a policy change that stimulated a dramatic increase in Aboriginal recruits. The contentious conscription debate in 1917 and 1918 impacted Native mobilization policy, and the Borden government eventually exempted Indians from compulsory military service due to registration difficulties and the interpretation of Aboriginal treaties with the British Crown. The third section of the book analyzes the important contributions of Indian soldiers on the Western Front, emphasizing the distinguished record of Native snipers and scouts, the cultural barriers facing Aboriginal combatants, and the significant casualties suffered by Native troops. …
