In How Far is it to Muscowequan School?, Nelson Bryksa tackles Canada's systemic racism. The book highlights his personal opinions of how immigrants to Canada were used to further racist policies of colonial governments. Drawing upon a significant personal experience, he develops a narrative of how Canada's governments propagated a non-Indigenous national enclave of culturally desirable people who could support European empire-building nations that colonized North America-nations that brought supremacist attitudes that institutionalized racism in a Canadian society that has only paid lip service and inconsequential appeasement to non-Indigenous peoples' reconciliation. Bryksa warns of insidious pressures put on society by those who promote racism and discriminatory practices to further their own self-interests. He puts forward an idea for the kind of reconciliatory step the sovereign nations of Canada might take to shift government policies from programs of appeasement to the decision-making partnership and shared governance that was envisioned by the Indigenous signers of the Treaties of Canada-the kind of governance not intended by colonial-minded governments. Nelson Bryksa is a Canadian writer who lives in Regina, Saskatchewan. He is a retired government policy analyst who worked with First Nation community-development corporations that distribute proceeds to First Nation communities and municipalities from SIGA casinos in Saskatchewan. How Far is it to Muscowequan School? is the author's personal promise to push back against the stigma of systemic racism that Indigenous peoples still have to endure, and to support their rights guaranteed by the treaties.
