Canadian Encounters of a Human Kind - 9781773028651

This is a book of stories of some remarkable encounters that took place over 400 years and spanned half a continent. Most were one-on-one; a few involved more. The most complex encounter entailed six overlapping partnerships spread over a decade. One encounter that seemed to end in a standoff gave way to one of the contender’s sparing the lives of a number of people in his home country. In all other cases the action was face to face between individual men and women. These were pairings of people quite different from each other. Half did not speak the other’s language; those who did had differing world views, faiths and cultures. Yet practically all proved able to see beyond differences to a shared humanity--
