The Court of Better Fiction

Three Trials, Two Executions, and Arctic Sovereignty

By: Debra Komar

2020 Arthur Ellis Award, Best Nonfiction Crime Book — Shortlisted In its rush to establish dominion over the North, Canada executed two innocent Inuit. In 1921, the RCMP arrested two Inuit males suspected of killing their uncle. While in custody, one of the accused allegedly killed a police officer and a Hudson's Bay Company trader. The Canadian government hastily established an unprecedented court in the Arctic, but the trial quickly became a master class in judicial error. The verdicts were decided in Ottawa weeks before the court convened. Authorities were so certain of convictions, the executioner and gallows were sent north before the trial began. In order to win, the Crown broke many of its own laws. The precedent established Canada’s legal relationship with the Inuit, who would spend the next seventy-seven years fighting to regain their autonomy and Indigenous rule of law.

Journeys Through Storms Or, I Remember Mother

A Young Woman's Quest to Find the Great Mother

By: Debra Peebles

In retelling of my own personal stories, I examine early turbulence correlating weather patterns with my own inner questions and quests. These outward displays of forces, seemingly beyond our control, are universal symbols or metaphors, stored within the consciousness of all our lives and ready for exposure. In exposure and examination, we ready ourselves for change-necessary change. Ultimately we run into our heart and the soulful desire to nurture self and all that we encompass. I describe these moments through my own stories, but we each have stories that drives us toward finding this source, and a more godly mother dynamic.
