AbstractIn the spring 2001, the Chrétien government undertook an important process of consultation with Aboriginal communities in Canada, with a view to modifying the Indian Act and improving governance practices and self-government within reserves. After one year of this process, the government put forward its First Nations Governance Act (Bill C-7). Though the Bill was never passed, the whole episode is quite indicative of the nature of institutional obstacles that slow down the creation of a more egalitarian relationship between the Canadian state and Indigenous peoples. The article blends historical institutionalism, the concepts of target population and of citizen engagement to argue that Aboriginal policy formulation in Canada is essentially constrained by a colonial paradigm that has remained virtually unchanged since the 19th century. This paradigm, which continues to view Aboriginal peoples as inferior, blocks any possibility of renewing Aboriginal governance.
