Instead, it demonstrates that their activism directly led to some inclusion in the early years of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism and that ethnic minorities took some tentative steps towards building political alliances with them. However, the possibility of a less colonial, more inclusive "syncretic multiculturalism" was dashed by the White Paper's assault on Indigenous identities, which diverted Indigenous leaders' engagement with multicultural activists, and by the passive revolutionary outcome of a policy of "multiculturalism within a bilingual framework," which originally excluded, but then was quickly extended to include, Indigenous peoples. En examinant le militantisme en faveur du multiculturalisme à la fin des années 1960 et au début des années 1970, l'article remet en question la notion que les peuples autochtones n'ont pas fait partie des discussions qui ont mené à la politique sur le multiculturalisme. Il montre plutôt que leur activisme a mené directement à une certaine inclusion dans les premières années de la Commission royale d'enquête sur le bilinguisme et le biculturalisme et que des minorités ethniques ont pris des mesures provisoires pour créer une alliance politique avec eux. Cependant, la possibilité d'un « multiculturalisme syncrétique » moins colonial, plus inclusif, a été anéantie par l'attaque du livre blanc sur les identités autochtones, ce qui a dévié l'engagement des leaders autochtones envers les militants multiculturels, et par le résultat passivement révolutionnaire d'une politique de « multiculturalisme dans un cadre bilingue », lequel excluait initialement les peuples autochtones, avant d'être rapidement étendu pour les inclure. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Canadian Historical Review is the property of University of Toronto Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
