Summary

This research offers a socio-historical analysis of western Canada during the North-West Mounted Police era (1873-1905), to show how it was (and still is), like other colonial frontiers, a violent space and time. The author explores this argument by situating the violent encounters between the NWMP, white settlers, and Aboriginal peoples within the colonial relations.
