- "There are many ways in which you can come to the corner of North-Western Quebec which has opened up during the last quarter century .... There is yet another way of coming into that country: the way I came -- as a priest, to minister to both the people in the new towns and the people who were there already, before the towns. .... This volume, then, is not really a study of Indian people. It has been observed, particularly in Indian circles, that everybody is always studying the Indian, they may, in fact, well be the most studied people in the world, and there are few signs of this trend slackening off to any perceptible degree. What follows, then, is more of a study of 'western' attitudes, if I may put it that way, and not really a 'study' but rather a look, a few questions and ideas which came to me through a number of incidents which made me think". -- p. 1, 3.

- "In my work ... I have discovered that little is known about strengths of healthy, nuclear and extended families of any of the Aboriginal cultures in Canada. This absence of information poses a huge challenge for anyone wanting to discuss how to make change in the lives of any Aboriginal population. Gender analysis of pertinent Aboriginal cultures is even more difficult to find..... In this guide, I share knowledge relevant to two target populations: (a) parents desiring to raise healthy, strong and responsible male children and youth; and (b) community workers and other leaders working with abusive and abused First Nations males. I draw on my formal education and what I learned non-formally and informally to be successful in my work as a probation officer, social worker, program planner, community leader, manager, post-secondary educator, son, brother, father, uncle and trusted friend". -- About the author, p. 23-24.
