A proposito di questo titolo
Against the Odds chronicles Thomas R. Berger's significant contributions to Indigenous rights advocacy in Canada and the United States. Mid-career, Berger led the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, conducting over thirty community hearings in the Northwest Territories to ensure that First Nations' voices were heard. Later, he also led public hearings on the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act.
The accompanying pdf is "Northern Album," a gallery featuring previously unpublished colour photographs of the Dene and Inuvialuit by Michael Jackson KC and Linda MacCannell.

“This the story of many remarkable Indigenous people: the hunters in the White and Bob case, the Nisga’a tribal leaders in the Calder case, the Dene, Métis, and Inuvialuit of the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, and the Alaskans in the report of the Alaska Native Review Commission." Hamar Foster KC, from the foreword.
“For many, the impact of the Berger Inquiry Report, Northern Frontier, Northern Homeland lent credence to the idea that Indigenous voices could and should be heard and taken into account in decisions that affect Indigenous Peoples and their lands. More than 40 years later, development on Indigenous lands continues to be a challenging issue facing Canada and Indigenous People are regularly consulted throughout the process." — Chief Justice Shannon Smallwood, Supreme Court of the NWT
