An account of the 1996 negotiations that took place between the mining company and the First Nations, Inuit, and Northwest Territories when diamonds were discovered in Canada's Arctic in 1996. Bielawski, a member of the First Nations team involved in the negotiations, describes her personal experiences of events from corporate meetings to sacred ceremonies with grace and insight, with vivid descriptions of the individuals who were most closely involved in the process.
