During this same time period citizens began to mobilize and challenge the state on a number of social issues including race, gender, labour, urban sprawl and the environment. Citizens believed that not only did they have the right to challenge the authority of government in planning public policy, but they also had a right to participate in the decision- making process as much as any bureaucrat, expert, or elected official. In planning airports in Pickering, Ste. Scholastique and Sea Island, the federal government was opposed by citizen groups in each of these three cases. Citizens believed their voices were not being heard and that government officials did not respect them. As a result, they disrupted the meticulously laid out plans of elected officials and policy planners by drawing on evidence and expert advice.

The rights era in both countries presented important challenges for both legislators and for minority groups. In a post-war context increasingly concerned with equality and global justice, minority groups were uniquely positioned to exact from the government perhaps greater concessions than ever before. For Indigenous groups, however, the potential of this period delivered only in part due to initiatives like the Great Society and the Just Society which, while claiming to offer justice for Indigenous people, threatened them as perhaps never before, by homogenizing Indigenous people and their demands with those of other minority groups.

    DEBATING THE PAST AND FUTURE: An Analysis of Conflicting Views of History Within the MacKenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, 1974-1977 A thesis submitted in candidacy for the degree of Master of Philosophical Foundations by Malcolm Hector MacRury Institute for Christian Studies Toronto, Canada 1984 Who controls the past, controls the future: who controls the present, controls the past. — George Orwell, 1984: quoted in testimony of the Indian Brotherhood of the NWT before the MacKenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, June 29, 1976 PREFACE Mr. Justice Thomas Berger's MacKenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, 1974-1977 (MVPI), offered an opportunity, which Berger himself characterized as unique in Canadian history, to raise cogent questions regarding the place of Native people in the Canadian state and society; the stewardship of environmental and energy resources; and, as an overarching concern, the significance of modernization, development, or industrialization in our past and for our future. Berger has described, in the following terms, the fundamental issues raised by the pipeline debate: The issues we face are profound ones, going beyond the ideological conflicts that have occupied the world for so long, conflicts over who should run the industrial machine, and who should reap the benefits. Now we are being asked: How much energy does it take to run the industrial machine? Where is the machine going? And what happens to the people who live in the path of the machine? [1] The variety of issues raised by the MVPI is well illustrated by the wide-ranging academic studies examining the Inquiry since its conclusion six years ago. In a variety of formats the Inquiry has drawn the attention of scholars analysing topics as diverse as public administration and planning; environmental policy; economics of hunting, trapping and fishing; multi-national corporations; the political future of the Northwest Territories; and religious and social ethics.2 This diversity merely reflects the diversity of concerns expressed in the transcripts of the Hearings themselves.
