Conversations with a Dead Man: The Legacy of Duncan Campbell Scott
Bloor/Gladstone Library. 1101 Bloor Street West
In this talk, Montreal poet and nonfiction writer Mark Abley explores the paradox of Duncan Campbell Scott and explains his relevance for Canadians today. Scott was one of the major Canadian poets of the early 20th century, a man whose literary reputation was built partly on his poems about Aboriginal people. Yet he was also Deputy Minister of Indian Affairs, an architect of the residential school system, and a fervent believer in assimilation. Abley’s widely acclaimed 2013 book “Conversations with a Dead Man” is an interrogation of Scott’s ghost — a work of creative non-fiction that asks why Scott behaved as he did, and questions how we can escape his legacy.

This feature documentary, directed by Inuvialuit filmmaker Dennis Allen, is an emotional, honest, and revealing exploration of substance abuse among First Nations people in Canada.

Stephen was trying to bury a childhood trauma. For Paula and Desirae, two mothers with a history of addiction, family becomes the key to breaking the cycle of abuse. Like his subjects, the director himself is a recovering alcoholic. Ultimately, all the
