Masters thesis. Provides evidence disconfirming the hypothesis of acculturation through use of testimony given by expert witnesses and community residents at Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry.

Asserts that solution to resource development issues lies in accommodation of existing Dene and Inuvialuit ways of life alongside industrial development.
