The park’s creation required the relocation of more than 1200 people who lived within its boundaries. Government officials claimed the mass eviction was necessary both to allow visitors to view “nature” without the intrusion of a human presence and to improve the lives of the former inhabitants. But unprecedented resistance by the mostly Acadian residents, many of whom described their expulsion from the park as a “second deportation,” led Parks Canada to end its practice of forcible removal. One resister, Jackie Vautour, remains a squatter on his land to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eKouchibouguac\u003c\/em\u003e, Ronald Rudin draws on extensive archival research, interviews with more than thirty of the displaced families, and a wide range of Acadian cultural creations to tell the story of the park’s establishment, the resistance of its residents, and the memory of that experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrologue: On the Road Again\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart I: Removal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: People Before the Park\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Planning Without People\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Removal and Rehabilitation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart II: Resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Gone Fishing\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: The Acadian Freedom Fighter\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart III: Remembrance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Art for a Cause\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Reconciliation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpilogue: Chez Comeau\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52588161990936,"sku":"9781442628403","price":22.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/kouchibouguac-removal-resistance-and-remembrance-at-a-canadian-national-park-paperback-softback-9781442628403","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
