Based on extensive research, including interviews with more than three thousand residents, it allows for the emergence of a new, contemporary, and more realistic portrait of Aboriginal people in Canada\u0026amp;#x2019;s urban centres.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHome in the City\u003c\/em\u003e focuses on Saskatoon, which has both one of the highest proportions of Aboriginal residents in the country and the highest percentage of Aboriginal people living below the poverty line. While the book details negative aspects of urban Aboriginal life (such as persistent poverty, health problems, and racism), it also highlights many positive developments: the emergence of an Aboriginal middle class, inner-city renewal, innovative collaboration with municipal and community organizations, and more. Alan B. Anderson and the volume\u0026amp;#x2019;s contributors provide an important resource for understanding contemporary Aboriginal life in Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eTables\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcronyms\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
