The map accompanying the Indigenous People’s Atlas of Canada<\/em><\/a> is a map of Indigenous Canada: as iPolitics’s Anna Desmarais reports<\/a>, “Dotting the map are the names of Indigenous languages, including Cree and Dene, and the geographical location where each language is spoken.

It sounds marvellous. [WMS<\/a>]<\/p>\n
