Voyageur challenges the colonial legacy of the historical record and its erasure of the knowledge, skills and status of First Nations women in pre-colonial society and their essential role in the creation of Canada, particularly in the early days of European contact and the fur trade industry. gives heroine Nellie McClung her due as a leader in the groundbreaking Manitoba campaign for votes for women while bringing into relief some of the forgotten names and stories from that struggle.
