Examines abuse of the civil rights and liberties of tens of thousands of Canadians and Canadian residents via internment from 1914 to the present day. This ongoing story spans both war and peacetime and has affected people from a wide variety of political backgrounds and ethno-cultural communities.

Examines a twenty-first century social phenomenon in which white, French descendant settlers in Canada shift into a self-defined 'Indigenous' identity, bringing to light to how these claims are then used politically to oppose actual, living Indigenous peoples.

Investigates the power of commemorative performances in the production of nationalist narratives, and examines an eclectic range of both state-sponsored social memory projects and counter-memorial projects.
