This article examines the evolution of the relations between Canadian museums and Indigenous peoples through the perspective of articles published by the Canadian Museums Association in its journal, Muse, launched in 1983. Muse has supported the development and the circulation of ideas amongst Canadian museologists. We undertake a systematic review of the content addressing Indigenous issues published in the journal between 1983 and 2002. This case study aims to depict the evolution of the mindset and the initiatives within the field regarding the management of Indigenous collections and Indigenous repatriation demands over a period of 20 years. We focus on the multiple levels of managing Indigenous collections in museums: collecting, preserving, studying, exhibiting, sharing access and repatriating objects. It results in an article filled with examples of the endeavours and limits of Canadian museum professionals’ propositions and actions in favor of the empowerment of Indigenous communities toward their heritage.
