Fifty-seven species of microlepidoptera are reported as new for the Province of Alberta, based primarily on speci- mens in the Northern Forestry Research Collection of the Canadian Forest Service, the University of Alberta Strickland Museum, the Canadian National Collection of Insects, Arachnids, and Nematodes, and the personal collections of the first two authors. These new records are in the families Eriocraniidae, Prodoxidae, Tineidae, Psychidae, Gracillariidae, Ypsolophidae, Plutellidae, Acrolepi- idae, Glyphipterigidae, Elachistidae, Glyphidoceridae, Coleophoridae, Gelechiidae, Xyloryctidae, Sesiidae, Tortricidae, Schrecken- steiniidae, Epermeniidae, Pyralidae, and Crambidae. These records represent the first published report of the families Eriocrani- idae and Glyphidoceridae in Alberta, of Acrolepiidae in western Canada, and of Schreckensteiniidae in Canada.

    Decision Statement Issued under Section 54 of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 to Province of Alberta c/o Matthew Hebert, Executive Director, Transportation Policy Transportation Services Division, Alberta Transportation 4999 98 Avenue 3rd Floor Twin Atria Building Edmonton, Alberta T6B 2X3 for the Springbank Off-Stream Reservoir Project Description of the Designated Project Alberta Transportation (the proponent) proposes to construct infrastructure to mitigate flooding on lands in and adjacent to the Elbow River, approximately 15 kilometres west of Calgary, Alberta. As proposed, the Springbank Off-Stream Reservoir Project would be located in a floodplain drainage area of the Elbow River and its tributaries, and would divert flood water during extreme flood events from the Elbow River to a temporary reservoir constructed in a natural topographic low, including agricultural land and wetlands. The flood waters would be stored in the temporary reservoir before being diverted back in to the Elbow River. The purpose of the Project is to prevent and reduce flood damage on infrastructure, water courses, and people in the City of Calgary and downstream communities. Conduct of the environmental assessment The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (the Agency) conducted an environmental assessment of the Designated Project in accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012. The Agency commenced the environmental assessment on June 23, 2016 and submitted its report to me in my capacity as Minister

Relationship with the Land – Seasonal Round Unit Resource Glenbow Museum Relationship with the Land - Resources Definition of the term – “Seasonal Round” The Blackfoot tribes had an enormous land base they inhabited. Within this territory they had areas where they would travel well over 500 miles during a yearly cycle to hunt, gather and renew religious commitments. Being knowledgeable of their environment and respectful of their gifts from the creator they would carefully select locations or places to travel to in a lifetime.

  • PICTURES BRING US MESSAGES7 / SINAAKSSIIKSI AOHTSIMAAHPIHKOOKIYAAWA: PHOTOGRAPHS and HISTORIES from the KAINAI NATION in 1925
    'PICTURES BRING US MESSAGES7 / SINAAKSSIIKSI AOHTSIMAAHPIHKOOKIYAAWA: PHOTOGRAPHS AND HISTORIES FROM THE KAINAI NATION In 1925, Beatrice Blackwood of the University of Oxford's Pitt Rivers Museum took thirty-three photographs of Kainai people on the Blood Indian Reserve in Alberta as part of an anthropological project. In 2001, staff from the museum took copies of these photographs back to the Kainai and worked with community members to try to gain a better understanding of their perspectives on the images. 'Pictures Bring Us Messages' is about that process, about why museum professionals and archivists must work with such communities, and about some of the considerations that need to be addressed when doing so. Exploring the meanings that historic photographs have for source communities, Alison K. Brown, Laura Peers, and members of the Kainai Nation develop and demonstrate culturally appropriate ways of re- searching, curating, archiving, accessing, and otherwise using museum and archival collections. The very process of building ties between museum and community has been crucial to the research and to the current and future benefits of this new relationship. Although the 'Pic- tures Bring Us Messages' project was based in Canada, its dynamics are relevant to indigenous peoples and heritage institutions around the world. ALISON K. BROWN is a research fellow with the Department of Anthro- pology at the University of Aberdeen. LAURA PEERS is a lecturer and curator with the Pitt Rivers Museum and the School of Anthropology at the University of Oxford.

  • Report on the Blood Tribe (Kainai Nation): Community Vulnerabilities
    Report on the Blood Tribe (Kainai Nation): community vulnerabilities DRAFT Lorenzo Magzul (with Alejandro Rojas) IACC Project, Unit 1 A: An assessment of vulnerabilities of rural communities and households to water related climate conditions (Chile and Canada DRAFT Report on Blood Tribe (Kainai Nation): community vulnerabilities 2 Introduction According to the Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability (IAV) report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (ICPCC) (2001), the provision of basic food, clean water and other basic needs for the poor is one of the greatest challenges for societies today. The report (2001) also suggests that climate change impacts affect the poor sectors of society most because they are likely more exposed, have less ability to adapt and therefore more vulnerable to the impacts. Thus, for the poor sectors of society, their vulnerability to climate change impacts further limits their opportunities for equitable standards of living. Indigenous peoples from around the world have stated in the Indigenous Peoples Kyoto Water Declaration that “the most vulnerable communities to climate change are Indigenous Peoples and impoverished local communities occupying marginal rural and urban environments” (http://www.indigenouswater.org/IndigenousDeclarationonWater.html). The ICPCC’s 2001 IAV report also states that for indigenous people the change from a livelihood of subsistence—which was much more flexible to climate variability—to a form of livelihood more closely linked to commercial activities reduces their coping

The impetus for this thesis is two-fold. Firstly, recent decisions by the Supreme Court of Canada, in relation to Aboriginal historical treaties, have demonstrated a shift towards legally recognizing the sovereignty of First Nations. As more First Nations challenge the Federal Government on their fulfillment of treaty obligations, Supreme Court decisions will become more elaborate and exhaustive, providing many Nations with an opportunity to address treaty concerns in a more substantive manner than in the past. Secondly, the Blackfoot are my neighbours and I am very honoured to relay
