  1. The Arctic
    Choice for Peace and Security
    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 1989
  2. Arctic Death Rattle
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2016
    The warming of the Arctic negatively affects the entire Northern Hemisphere by altering jet streams at 30,000-40,000 feet altitude, which turns normal weather patterns upside down, wreaking havoc throughout the hemisphere. Even more significantly, loss of Arctic ice exposes the planet to risks of a crushing blow to the planetary ecosystem, without warning.
  3. Connexions Digest
    Issue 51 - May 1990 - A Social Change Sourcebook

  5. I Have Lived Here Since the World Began 
    An Illustrated History of Canada's Native People
    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 1996
    Ray shows that Native culture played an important -- and largely unrecognized -- part in Canada's economic development. Rather than being "civilized" by European explorers, the indigenous people were already accomplished traders, artisans, farmers and hunters.
  6. The Seventh Fire
    The Struggle for Aboriginal Government
    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 1993
    Describes the struggles of aboriginal people to run their own affairs.
  7. We must keep the Arctic clean, wild and free!
    Resource Type: Article
    First Published: 2014
    The Arctic is a special place, teeming with life, but it is under threat like never before -- not just from climate change, but from oil drilling, industrial fishing and shipping, as receding ice creates now commercial opportunities. We must designate an Arctic Sanctuary where nature can reign undisturbed.

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
