Hydroelectricity is not the only resource harvested from the traditional territory. Large trucks, some belonging to the American multinational Domtar, are stacked high with freshly shaved trees, which are then delivered to local paper mills. Above, a shot of an early Domtar logging site conveys the magnitude of the industry's practices at the time.

Whether it's the Alberta tar sands or our role in Haiti, The Dominion has the guts to look at Canada without the fairytales about our national virtue that comfort and blind us. Our country is at a crucial turning point and we need the brave writers at The Dominion to tell us the truth about where we are heading. Truth telling shouldn't be such a radical act, but it always is. Only readers like you can keep this crucial voice alive and growing louder. Please, pitch in!

--Naomi Klein, author

About the Dominion

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
