In these pages you will find reproduced the entire contents of the CatherineHennessey.com, written over three years from 2000 to 2003. While the archive of the weblog continues to live online, this is not an easy medium for contemplative reading and, as Catherine would tell you if you asked, itâs liable to just up and disappear one day, electrons and computers being what they are. So, if nothing else, in committing Catherineâs words to paper I hope to provide them with a longer-lasting home.The notion of a âblogâ was very new in 2000: Catherine was one of the first âbloggers,â on PEI or anywhere. So what you read here, on top of everything else, is part of the shaping of a new medium.These words provide so much insight into Catherine and the Charlotte Town she loves so dearly.

As a poet and citizen deeply concerned by the Oka Crisis, the Idle No More protests, and Canada’s ongoing failure to resolve First Nations issues, Montreal author Mark Abley has long been haunted by the figure of Duncan Campbell Scott, known both as the architect of Canada’s most destructive Aboriginal policies and as one of the nation’s major poets. Who was this enigmatic figure who could compose a sonnet to an “Onondaga Madonna” one moment and promote a “final solution” to the “Indian problem” the next? In this passionate, intelligent and highly readable inquiry into the state of Canada’s troubled Aboriginal relations, Abley alternates between analysis of current events and an imagined debate with the spirit of Duncan Campbell Scott, whose defense of the Indian Residential School and belief in assimilation illuminate the historical roots underlying today’s First Nations’ struggles.
