On September 4, 1995, several Stoney Point Natives entered Ipperwash
Provincial Park, near Sarnia, Ontario, and began a peaceful protest
aimed at reclaiming a traditional burial ground. Within seventy-two
hours, one of those protestors, Anthony (Dudley) George, was dead,
shot by an OPP officer. In One Dead Indian, after covering the tragedy
from the beginning, journalist Peter Edwards examines the
circumstances surrounding George’s death and asks a number of tough
questions, including: How much pressure did the Ontario government put
on the OPP to get tough? As the official public inquiry attempt to
shed light on what really happened, Peter Edwards’s investigation of
this question brings the story right up to the present.
