A book by former justice minister and attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould will be released on Sept. 20, according to her publisher.
The book, which is titled From Where I Stand: Rebuilding Indigenous Nations for a Stronger Canada, will be released by Purich Books _ part of the University of British Columbia Press.
They say in a news release that it's a timely, forthright, impassioned and optimistic book for all Canadians.
It urges Indigenous and non-Indigenous people to build on the momentum of the reconciliation journey or risk losing progress.
Wilson-Raybould is now an Independent MP for Vancouver Granville and has served as a British Columbia Regional Chief, in addition to her roles as minister of justice and attorney general for Canada.
Purich Books says Wilson-Raybould, also known by her Kwak'wala name of Puglaas, draws on her speeches and other writings for the book.
