Alisa Dines - Canadian Families (My Family, Historical Can. Families & FNMI families)

First Nations families in Canada traditionally function with a strong emphasis on socialization of children and the physical maintenance and care of their members. These families often consist of extended relatives including parents, children, aunts, uncles, and grandparents, who provide support and guidance.
