  • Mackenzie Highway Extension, for Structuring EIA Related Field Investigations and for Comparative Assessment of Alternate Routes
    D. Mackenzie Valley Highway Extension D.1 Consultations An initial Stakeholder Workshop was held in Norman Wells on June 8, 1998. The workshop was attended by approximately 60 stakeholders and generated considerable discussion on the need-for, and benefits-of, an all-weather road. A meeting with the Sahtu Secretariat and the Sahtu Regional Land Corporation Presidents was held on November 12, 1998. The group reviewed the Terms of Reference for Environmental Scoping and Benefit Cost Studies. The Terms of Reference were also sent to other stakeholders invited to participate on the Advisory Committee. In December the Department established an Advisory Committee for this project consisting of 25 individuals representing a wide variety of interest groups and organizations. The Department has kept this committee informed of the status of projects, and held a meeting on March 17, 1999 in Norman Wells. A list of the committee members is provided below.

  • People, Place and Season: Reflections on Gwich'in Ordering Of
    People, Place and Season: Reflections on Gwich’in Ordering of Access to Resources in an Arctic Landscape by Leslie Main Johnson University of Alberta, Department of Anthropology and Canadian Circumpolar Institute and Daniel Andre, Gwichya Gwich’in Band Presented at IASCP 2000, Bloomington, Indiana It is a tenet of common property theory that local groups of people tend to evolve institutions to allocate common pool resources among community members in ways which are economically and ecologically sustainable. We are interested in the applicability of this type of analysis to subsistence systems of non-agricultural indigenous peoples. This paper is a preliminary examination of informal institutions of the Gwich’in of the Northwest Territories in Canada and how they contribute to ordering access to resources through the seasons by Gwich’in. This analysis is based on conversations by Johnson with Gwich’in and other people who have worked with Gwich’in people, and her fieldwork with Gwich’in from Fort McPherson and Tsiigehtchic in 1999 and 2000, and the insights and experiences of Andre regarding Gwich’in seasonal use of land and resources. This paper considers the resource use of the people of Fort McPherson and Tsiigehtchic. It does not deal with the mixed Gwich’in-Inuvialuit-non-Indigenous communities of Aklavik and Inuvik, which are historically more complex. We will consider three principal areas in this analysis: fishing, trapping, and caribou. It must be emphasized that this discussion uses an analytic framework which differs in important ways from the usual perspective of Gwich’in people. The conceptualization of diverse elements of traditional subsistence as “resources”, for example, and the discussion of these as things separate from a seasonal flow of life is not an indigenous perspective.

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 DE-6 (3/81) ABSTRACT This paper discusses community resistance to the imposition of an external industrial socio-economic system and the destruction of a distinctive land-based way of life. It shows how historically Inuvialuit independence has been eroded by contact with the external economic system and the assimilationist policies of the government. In spite of these pressures, however, the Inuvialuit have struggled to retain their culture and their land-based economy. This thesis shows that hunting and trapping continue to be viable and to contribute significant income, both cash and income- in-kind to the community.

    Local Knowledge of Fish Movements and Habitat Use in the Travaillant Lake System Gwich’in Renewable Resource Board Report 04-06 Janet Winbourne September 30, 2004 DEDICATION This report is dedicated to Billy Cardinal, a Tsiigehtchic elder, who passed away on April 29th, 2004. Billy was a well-respected traditional hunter and trapper, who cared deeply for the land. We will miss his guidance and wisdom. Cover Photo: Dan Andre with lake trout, Travaillant Lake, July 2003 (GRRB). __________________________________________________________________________ Local Knowledge of Fish Movements and Habitat Use in the Travaillant Lake System i SUMMARY Local knowledge regarding fish and fish habitat has been gathered to provide baseline information about fish distribution, movement and habitat use, as well as ecological characteristics of lakes and streams in the Travaillant Lake (Khaii luk) system. During the first phase of the research, various databases were searched for previously recorded traditional ecological knowledge. A literature review was also conducted to compile any information relevant to the study topic and area. A list of sources searched, search keywords, and pertinent results are included as part of this report. The second phase of the research involved conducting interviews with community members from Tsiigehtchic and Inuvik to document traditional and contemporary local knowledge of the Travaillant Lake area. Twenty-six participants were chosen for their knowledge regarding fish and fish habitat in the study area. Semi-structured individual or group interviews (2-4 people) were conducted in March and April, 2004, in the two communities. An interview guide consisting of 12 open-ended questions was used during each interview.

  • An Ethnohistorical Review of Health and Healing in Aklavik, NWT, Canada
    “Never Say Die”: An Ethnohistorical Review of Health and Healing in Aklavik, NWT, Canada by Elizabeth Cooper A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Native Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2010 by Elizabeth Cooper Abstract The community of Aklavik, North West Territories, was known as the “Gateway to the North” throughout the first half of the Twentieth Century. In 1959, the Canadian Federal Government decided to relocate the town to a new location for a variety of economic and environmental reasons. Gwitch’in and Inuvialuit refused to move, thus claiming their current community motto “Never Say Die”. Through a series of interviews and participant observation with Elders in Aklavik and Inuvik, along with consultation of secondary literature and archival sources, this thesis examines ideas of the impact of mission hospitals, notions of health, wellness and community through an analysis of some of the events that transpired during this interesting period of history. Acknowledgements I would like to thank and honour the people in both Aklavik and Inuvik for their help and support with this project. I would like to thank my thesis committee, Dr. Christopher G Trott, Dr Emma LaRocque and Dr. Mark Rumel for their continued help and support throughout this project. I would like to thank the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, Dr. S. Michelle Driedger’s Research in Science Communication CIHR-CFI Research Lab, University of Manitoba Graduate Studies, University of Manitoba Faculty of Arts, University of Manitoba, Department of Native Studies and University of Manitoba Graduate Students Association, for making both the research and dissemination of results for this project possible.
