Differences in lithology, such as Ressources) has shown a need to reevaluate the presence of komatiites in the south, and the greater stratigraphy in specific areas of the CCR. Recently abundance of plutons and extensive mafic to ultramafic sills in the north, as well as a difference in stratigraphic thickness prompted Dimroth et al.

Thesample for the study was comprised of 109 adolescent Cree Indiansfrom the Mistassini and Waswanipi bands located in northcentral Quebec. These youths attended elementary and high schools inLa Tuque, Quebec; Brantford, Ontario; and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.It is noted that the socialization patterns of these youthsalternate between the traditional Indian way of life and that of modernwhite society. Evidences are drawn from clinically oriented anlysisof the Adolescent Adjustment Interviews andare supplemented by field data and the use of informants. Recommendations fromthe study deal with diminishing the intensity of identity conflictamong Cree youth through(1) encouragement to retain sufficient emotionalattachment to traditional values, (2) designing school curricula to validate self-images, and (3)reducing discontinuities in the enculturationof Cree children.

  • January 10Th, 2021
    January 10th, 2021 Message from Leadership • Unfortunately, there were two “super spreader” events related to social gatherings in the Ouje-Bougoumou, Chibougamau, Mistissini area which has resulted in 30 confirmed cases, with 13 among residents of Ouje-Bougoumou and 10 among residents of Mistissini so far. There is reason to be hopeful that with the incredible contact tracing efforts of the Cree Health Board, the leadership of local governments in implementing restrictions and controlling gatherings and most importantly the cooperation of youth and community members in coming forward in contact tracing that we will be able to contain these cases very quickly. • More than 200 people are part of the contact tracing exercise and many are testing negative which demonstrates that the Cree Health Board Contact Tracing teams are finding the ends of the transmission chains. Recent events are a demonstration to everyone on how one lapse in judgement can have an impact on so many in our communities. Although two elders have been infected by these events there is a reason to be hopeful as severe symptoms have been very limited thus far. Let us pray that it stays this way in the coming days. • The Cree Health Board has made a great achievement by administering more than 1,000 doses in less than 5 days. This a demonstration that the Cree Nation is ready for the doses to begin vaccination in all communities, which are expected to arrive as early as the 14th, of January, 2021. January 10th, 2021 Travelling With the “Lockdown” measures that were announced by the Government of Quebec closing all non-essential services outside Eeyou Istchee this week, there is NO reason for people to be traveling outside of a Cree community for non-essential purposes.

  • New Bus Line Service Chisasibi – Val-D'or
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEW BUS LINE SERVICE CHISASIBI – VAL-D’OR Chisasibi and Val-d’Or, Wednesday, 2016 June first - Chisasibi Business Development Group (CBDG) and Autobus Maheux are pleased to announce their new partnership which is for the establishment of a regular bus service in the territory of James Bay with routes to and from Chisasibi and Val-d’Or. This bus service will be offered twice a week and will serve the community of Chisasibi and all Cree communities of James Bay territory, with a bus stop at each intersection on the James Bay highway connecting each Cree community. The Cree population is growing and year after year the travel needs are becoming more important. The needs are related to health, education, and recreational purposes. This new bus service will provide the communities with a new option for their transport which will be regular, reliable, safe and affordable. FIRST DEPARTURE FROM VAL-D’OR: JUNE 8th, 2016 AT 8:00 AM FIRST DEPARTURE FROM CHISASIBI: JUNE 9th, 2016 AT 8:00 AM A need was expressed for many years The idea of setting up a transport bus service was initiated several years ago. Approximately 15 years ago, the five coastal communities had a meeting with Autobus Maheux to discuss the potential bus project. Furthermore, a feasibility study was conducted in 2009 without any real results for the establishment of the service. However, during the Economic Mission in September 2015 which was organized by the Secretariat to the Cree Nation Abitibi-Témiscamingue Economic Alliance, a meeting was held between CBDG and Autobus Maheux.
