The Great Canadian Adventure tells of the movement of what is now Canada from Indian Country to the Modern Day. It is particularly concerned about the experience of Aboriginal people after contact from Europeans and today.In this novel Katherine Golden Eagle and Rory Broken Head are hired to narrate and be the History experts for a documentary showcasing Colonial history. They find themselves overruled by the Producer, George McBay, the son of a wealthy business owner who wants to highlight the achievements of the Honorable David Laird, a distant relative, who was responsible for negotiating several of the Numbered Treaties in the late 1800's. The result is a battle by Kate and Rory to deliver a more balanced view of Colonial History and particularly Numbered Treaties 6, 7, and 8 that ceded vast portions of Canada for very little return for their former owners.Romance, seduction, identity confusion, loyalty and betrayal result as the documentary proceeds.
