Summary Marylynn Poucachiche and Norman Matchewan faced tear gas and police batons when they joined their parents on logging blockades to defend the Barriere Lake Algonquins' traditional territory in the 1980s. Little did Marylynn and Norman realize they would still be on the barricades over 20 years later, this time with their own young children at their sides. Honour Your Word is an intimate portrait of life behind the barricades for the Algonquins of Barriere Lake, an inspiring First Nation whose dignity and courage contrast sharply with material poverty and political injustice they face.
