Ogichidaa Francis Kavanaugh

Grand Council Treaty #3

Boozhoo,

With COVID-19 creating challenges in service delivery in our First Nation communities, the women and men of our Treaty Three Police Services have gone above and beyond to continue to provide services at the highest standard. These challenges are immense, but Treaty Three Police Services has persevered.

On behalf of the Anishinaabe Nation in Treaty #3, I would like to thank the Treaty 3 Police Service staff, management and the Board of Directors for their continued service to our communities during these trying times.

We will continue to work with the Treaty 3 Police Services to advocate on behalf of our citizens to ensure communities have their policing needs met in a comprehensive and culturally appropriate way. A large part of this work will involve addressing the shortfalls that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought to the forefront.

I am positive Treaty 3 Police Service will continue to work with our — Ogichidaa, Francis Kavanaugh community leaders to provide exemplary service to the Anishinaabe Anishinaabe Nation in Treaty #3 Nation in Treaty #3.

Stay safe and healthy.

Eight Teachings

MAANAJI'IWIN - RESPECT 1 The Buffalo The buffalo represents respect. The buffalo gives every part of his/her being to sustain human life, not because he/she is of less value, but because he respects the balance and needs of others. To honour all creation is to have respect. We must share what we do not need and treat others the way we wish to be treated.

ZAAGI'IDIWIN - LOVE 2 The Eagle The eagle represents love because he/she has the strength to carry all the teachings. The eagle has the ability to fly closest to the creator and the sight to see all ways of being. The eagle’s feather is the highest honour and a sacred gift.

GIKENDAASOWIN - WISDOM 3 The Beaver The beaver represents wisdom. He/she uses his/her natural gifts wisely and alters his/her environment in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. To cherish knowledge is to know wisdom. This Grandfather teaching reminds us to recognize differences in a kind and respectful way and continuously observe the life of all things to allow ourselves to learn.

AAKODE'EWIN - BRAVERY 4 The Bear The bear represents bravery. A mother bear is fierce protecting her young who are facing the challenges of life. The Grandfather teaching reminds us to find our inner strength to face difficulties and find the courage to be ourselves.

6 TREATY THREE POLICE • Annual Report: 2019 – 2020 TRUTH - DEBWEMOWIN • HONESTY - GAWEGAATISIWI • HUMILTY - DABASENIMOWIN • FORGIVENESS - PAGITENTAMOWIN

DEBWEMOWIN - TRUTH 5 The Turtle The turtle represents truth. The turtle lives life in a slow and meticulous way, because he/she understands the importance of both journey and the destination. The Grandfather teaching reminds us to put faith first, trust in our teachings, and be true to others and ourselves.

GAWEGAATISIWI - HONESTY 6 The Raven The raven represents honesty. A raven accepts him/herself and knows how to use his/her gifts. The raven does not seek power rather uses what he has been given to survive and thrive.

DABASENIMOWIN - HUMILITY 7 The Wolf The wolf represents humility. In nature, the wolf lives selflessly for his/her pack. The Grandfather teaching reminds us to find balance within all living things and ourselves. We must respect our place and praise the accomplishments of others.

PAGITENTAMOWIN - FORGIVENESS 8 The Rock The rock represents forgiveness. The eighth Grandfather teaching is unique to the Treaty 3 Anishinaabe Territory. The Elders of our territory recognized that in Anishinaabe culture everything comes in even numbers. From the creation of life, to the seasons, to the songs of the Pow Wow - all numbers are even. A ceremony revealed the final Grandfather teaching of forgiveness represented by the rock. The rock or “assin” carries history and ancestry. It has witnessed change in weather, people, and animals since creation. Rocks have the power to heal and forgiveness has the power to heal. Rocks in the Anishinaabe culture help cleanse and take illness away - physically, emotionally and mentally. The Grandfather teaching reminds us that it is better to forgive and move forward than to fill our pockets with the heavy weights of resentment as we journey forth.

OUR SACRED ITEMS

THE DRUM

The voice of the Anishinaabe people. Ours is an Ogichidaa Drum that came to us as a result of a dream from a Big Grassy elder to assist our First Nations police officers in performing their day-to-day duties; to support them spiritually and to give them strength.

THE PIPE

The spirit of the Pipe is powerful and brings many teachings to the people. The Midawin teachings tell us the creator who is all powerful and all loving works through the Pipe. The stone or the bowl represents our Grandfathers. The tobacco that is placed in it comes from the earth to represent our Mother Earth. The fire represents movement in life. The smoke is representative of the spirit that takes the prayers to the Creator of all things.

THE EAGLE STAFF

The Treaty Three Police Eagle Staff symbolizes strength and protection of the Treaty Three Police Officers and the communities they serve and has 23 eagle feathers to represent each of those communities.

OUR SACRED OUR ITEMS DRUM KEEPER

One person, the “drum keeper” or “drum carrier,” is placed in charge of taking care of the drum and doing any repair work.

The drum keeper ensures that the drum is present for our sacred ceremonies such as the Spring and Fall feasts. The drum keeper prepares the drum and the other sacred items prior to the ceremonies as well as arranging for the Elder and singers to attend the ceremonies.

The honour of the drum keeper responsibility is given to Constable Dennis Smith, a highly regarded senior officer with T3PS. Cst Smith is a member of Northwest Bay FN and is very involved with his culture and community. Cst Smith is a leader and respected member of the service and we thank him for his service.

IT Services completed the upgrade of all interview equipment at Kenora, Whitedog, Grassy, Whitefish Bay and Couchiching Detachments prior to the end of this fiscal year. As well replacement laptops started to roll out earlier this year for staff employees. An enhancement for officer safety was installed which was the GPS Gate Vehicle Fleet Tracking system. This system is capable of monitoring location, speed and time spent at a location which will assist the police service in providing an accountable and safer service.

On March 31st 2020 the business relationship with FSET, owned by Dave Brown concluded. Treaty Three Police Service would like to thank Dave Brown and his team for their many years of service and wish them continued success moving into the future. With the conclusion of this business relationship comes a fresh start with a new IT Service provider called Aegisys Cloud Solutions managed by Brodie Beyers based out of Sudbury ON.

Treaty Three Police Services Inc. Notes to Summary Financial Statements March 31, 2020

Note 1 - Summary Financial Statements The summary financial statements are derived from the audited financial statements, prepared in accordance with the financial reporting directives provided by the Ministry of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, as at March 31, 2020 and for the year then ended.

The preparation of these summary financial statements requires management to determine the information that needs to be reflected in them so that they are consistent in all material respects with, or represent a fair summary of, the audited financial statements.

Management prepared these summary financial statements using the following criteria:

a) the summary financial statements include the statement of financial position and the statement of operations and net assets (deficit); b) management determined that the statement of cash flows does not provide additional useful information and as such, have not included it as part of the summary financial statements; c) information in the summary financial statements agrees with the related information in the complete audited financial statements including comparative information and all major subtotals and totals; and d) in all material respects, the summary financial statements contain the information necessary to avoid distorting or obscuring matters disclosed in the related complete audited financial statements, including significant accounting policies and the notes thereto.

Copies of the March 31, 2020 audited financial statements are available upon request by contacting Treaty Three Police Services.

Note 2 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities a) Vacation pay - As at March 31, 2020, unrecorded vacation pay amounted to $379,571 (2019 - $345,289). b) Severance pay - The organization has a liability with respect to severance pay that it provides to its employees at retirement. Employees with greater than 5 years of service are entitled to one week of salary for each year of service. The amount of the liability has not been actuarially determined. The total, undiscounted liability at March 31, 2020 was $1,909,576 (2019 - $1,820,164). During the year, actual severance of $104,076 (2019 - $27,705) was paid and expensed. The basis of accounting specifies that severance is not recorded in the financial statements until paid. As such, only the amounts paid during the year have been charged to operations; no provision has been made on the statement of financial position or the statement of operations for possible future amounts. c) Outstanding claims - The organization is involved in legal claims and actions including grievances in the normal course of operations, and a grievance by a former employee for severance and a claim for negligence. It is the opinion of legal counsel that the outcome of such claims is not determinable. Should any loss result from the resolution of these claims, it will be charged to operations in the year of resolution and payment. d) Union Negotiations – Union agreements with uniformed officers expired on December 31, 2018 and the organization is currently in negotiations with the union, with arbitration set for June 26, 2020. Any expenditure for retroactive payment of salaries and benefits will be charged to operations when a settlement is reached and amounts are known.

Note 3 - Basis of Accounting These statements are prepared on an accrual basis of accounting using Canadian accounting standards for not- for-profit organizations as the underlying basis of accounting. As required by the Ministry of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services; the organization follows Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations except for the following:

a) Capital assets, net of related long term financing, and long term debt repayments are reported as expenditures in the Statement of Operations in the year of purchase/payment. No provision for amortization expense is made in the Statement of Operations. On the Statement of Financial Position, capital assets are included at cost less accumulated amortization with an offsetting amount to Investment in Capital Assets. b) Vacation pay expense and severance are not recorded in the financial statements until paid. No provision or accrual is made in the Statement of Financial Position.
