Abstract The diploma thesis deals with the emergence of Canadian popular music and the development of music genres that enjoyed the greatest popularity in Canada. A significant part of the thesis is devoted to an investigation of conditions connected to the relation of Canadian music and Canadian sense of identity and uniqueness. Further, an account of Canadian radio broadcasting and induction of regulating acts which influenced music production in Canada in the second half of the twentieth century are given. Moreover, the effectiveness and contributions of these regulating acts are summarized and evaluated. Last but not least, the main characteristics of the music style of a female singer songwriter Joni Mitchell are examined.

    Indigenous Governance & Partnership Program This newsletter provides a snapshot of some recent developments within the Indigenous Governance and Partnerships Program at the Faculty of Native Studies. INDIGENOUS Since the launch of the Certificate in Aboriginal Governance and Partnership in 2007, the Faculty of Native Studies has expanded governance programming; in 2015, with a partnership with the School of Business Executive Education - the Indigenous Partnership Development Program (IPDP); and in 2016, a community research partnership project with the Métis Nation of Alberta. tawâw While governance is unique to language, place, relationships, and community, we are also informed and guided by the overarching experiences that connect us together - similar to how the University of Alberta has been a gathering place for diverse Indigenous tân’si peoples including the Cree, Blackfoot, Metis, Nakota Sioux, Iroquois, Dene, Ojibway/Saulteaux/Anishnaabe, Inuit, and many others whose histories, languages, and cultures continue to guide good hadih relationships - to challenge oppression and racism and support equitable approaches to “uplifting the whole people”. drin gwinzii Our programming also strives to provide context for and to continue momentum in the broader national and international societal shifts in these relationships, such as the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, and the implementation of the United tawnshi Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).

  • IQRF 2019 001 Kkangiqłiniq HTO Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Final Report
    Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Workshop Rankin Inlet, August 20, 2019 Clayton Tartak Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Ezra Greene Research Consultant Warren Bernauer Research Consultant Report prepared for the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Summary On August 20, 2019 the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization (K-HTO) in Rankin Inlet held a day-long workshop with four Elders: Jerome Kupaak Tattuinee, Mary-Ann Inuaraq Tattuinee, Alain Kumak Kabvitok, and Jack Tikiq Kabvitok. The focus of the workshop was Inuit perspectives on caribou management. The project was carried out by three researchers: Clayton Tartak (project leader), Ezra Greene (research consultant), and Warren Bernauer (research consultant). Interpretation services between Inuktitut and English were provided by Maggie Putulik. The project received funding from the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board’s (NWMB) Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Research Fund. To facilitate discussion, the researchers screened videos from the Kaminuriak Caribou Herd Project: a participatory video project that documented Inuit perspectives on caribou management in the early 1980s. The videos helped stimulate conversation – they were particularly useful in generating discussion about how caribou and caribou management have changed since the 1980s. The workshop addressed several issues relevant to caribou management today, including: traditional rules for caribou hunting, changes related to caribou since the 1980s, the impacts of mining on caribou, concerns with selling caribou meat, concerns with younger hunters not following traditional rules, the importance of teaching younger hunters traditional skills, rules, and values, and commentary on research. The Elders indicated that they enjoyed the workshop format, especially the use of videos and recommended the researchers hold similar workshops in other communities.

GSC 1993-209A Original manuscript received: 1992 - 12 Final version approved for publication: 1993-07 Preface The Parry Peninsula-Perry River area, Northwest Territories is currently experiencing important economic development based primarily on mineral resource exploration for base and precious metals and diamonds. Economic growth is likely to increase in the future in view of renewed interest in a transportation corridor linking Yellowknife to Coronation Gulf and Bathurst Inlet. Improved accessibility to the Central Arctic coast through construction and upgrading of roads, airports, docks, harbours, rail connections, and pipelines creates greater opportunities for travel, trade, tourism, fishing, mining, and development of renewable and non-renewable resources.
