In addition, owing to the blatant lack of resources available to the Innu of Unamen Shipu and the proponent’s refusal to provide adequate funding for the procedure that the Conseil des Innus de Unamen Shipu intended to initiate with respect to the land use and harvesting plan (Innu-Assi), it was not possible to compile enough information for the use of the Joint Review Panel. In passing, please note that an Agency employee kindly informed the Conseil des Innus de Unamen Shipu that the Nalcor document had been posted online, rather than Nalcor itself.

Background On September 30, 2010, the Conseil des Innus de Unamen Shipu received a letter from Lesley Griffiths and Herb Clarke, inviting the Conseil, along with other interested parties, to submit to the Joint Review Panel its comments concerning the supplemental information to information request JRP.151 prepared by Nalcor Energy. We thank the Joint Review Panel and its collaborators for this opportunity. The comments below repeat, for the most part, previous comments, in addition to setting out the specific response of the Conseil des lnnus de Unamen Shipu to the proponent’s response (Supplemental Information to Information Request JRP.151). 2. Information collection by Nalcor on the viewpoints of the Innu of Unamen Shipu concerning the project rationale In point 1.0 INTRODUCTION of the proponent’s document, we were astonished to read the following: This report [Supplemental Information to IR JRP.151] demonstrates Nalcor's effort to understand the interests, values, concerns, contemporary and historic activities, Aboriginal traditional knowledge and important issues facing aboriginal groups [...] [Our modifications] At no time has the proponent, Nalcor Energy, sought to gather the concerns of the Innu of Unamen Shipu regarding the project rationale from the standpoint of the Innu of Unamen Shipu (the interests). We are still trying to identify Nalcor's effort to understand the interests of the Unamen Shipu Nation in connection with the project. 2.1. Historical overview It should be noted that, owing to efforts made by then-premier of Newfoundland, Joey Smallwood, the British Newfoundland Corporation Limited (hereinafter “Brinco”), a consortium of banks and industrial companies, was established in 1953, and began to promote the construction of a hydroelectric power plant at Hamilton Falls, subsequently renamed Churchill Falls in honour of the former British Prime Minister, Sir Winston Spencer Churchill. In 1958, this corporation entered into a joint venture with Shawinigan Engineering, a subsidiary of the powerful Shawinigan Water and Power Company in Quebec The joint venture was aimed at working on hydroelectric development at the Hamilton (Churchill) Falls site. However, at the time the site’s potential largely exceeded the requirements of Shawinigan Water and Power, and so there was little interest in pursuing this option. In 1955, Bill Southam, CEO of Brinco, asked Robert J. Beaumont, President of Shawinigan Water and Power, to try and persuade Quebec Premier Maurice Duplessis and government-owned utility Hydro-Québec to endorse the project. However, Duplessis took the position that it was preferable to develop projects in Quebec rather than import electricity from Newfoundland.1 After Duplessis died, his successor, Paul Sauvé, appeared to be more receptive to the suggestions of the Brinco representatives; he attended a meeting with them in 1959. However, Paul Sauve subsequently passed away too, in 1960. The deaths of the two heads of the Union Nationale coming so close together led to disorganization within the government, which slowed the discussions on the project between the two provinces. In the general elections held on June 22, 1960, Jean Lesage was elected premier. This event was conducive to a resumption of the negotiations with Brinco (meeting of February 18, 1961). Although Hydro-Québec showed some interest in the project, two years earlier the province had started the construction of the Manic-Outardes project on the North Shore of Québec2, a situation that once again impeded the Newfoundland project. Brinco then turned to Ontario but owing to the high cost of energy transmission (transmission lines at the time did not cover that aspect of the equation), the price per kWh or TWh was so high that Ontario turned the project down, and Brinco found itself back at square zero. In 1962, the Diefenbaker government announced its desire to promote electricity exports, opening the door to an agreement with Consolidated Edison, an electricity distributor in the United States. However, the likelihood of earning profits from a hydroelectric project intended to produce electricity for export to the United States was far from certain in the early 1960s. 1Philip Smith, Brinco: The Story of Churchill Falls, McClelland and Stewart, Toronto, 1975, 392 p.

Silva Charles R. Hale David Wilkins Roberta Hill Juan de Dios Yapita Narrating Native Histories aims to foster a rethinking of the ethical, methodological, and conceptual frameworks within which we locate our work on Native histories and cultures. We seek to create a space for effective and ongoing conversations between North and South, Natives and non- Natives, academics and activists, throughout the Americas and the Pacific region. This series encourages analyses that contribute to an understanding of Native peoples’ relationships with nation- states, including histo- ries of expropriation and exclusion as well as projects for autonomy and sovereignty. We encourage collaborative work that recognizes Native intellectuals, cultural inter- preters, and alternative knowledge producers, as well as projects that question the relationship between orality and literacy. skin for skin DEATH AND LIFE FOR INUIT AND INNU GERALD M.

  • Continuation of the Negotiations with the Innu
    QUEBECERS and the INNU CONTINUATION OF THE NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE INNU AGREEMENT-IN-PRINCIPLE WORKING TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE A TREATY Québec Secrétariat aux affaires autochtones Québec HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEGOTIATIONS The Government of Québec has put in place a participation mechanism that allows the populations of the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean and Côte-Nord regions to make known their opinion at the negotiating table. Québec’s negotiations team includes a representative of the regions who attends all of the negotiation sessions. He is the regions’ spokesperson at the negotiating table. The representative of the regions can count on the assistance of one delegate in each of the regions in question. W HAT IS THE RO L E OF THE REP RES ENTATIV E O F THE REGIO NS AND THE DELEGATES? 1 To keep you informed of the progress made in the work of the negotiating table. 2 To consult you and obtain your comments. 3 To convey your proposals and concerns to the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and to the special negotiator for the Government of Québec. WHAT IS THE AGREEM ENT-IN-P RINCIPLE? The agreement-in-principle reached by the Government of Québec, the Government of Canada and the First Nations of Betsiamites, Essipit, Mashteuiatsh and Nutashkuan will serve as a basis for negotiating a final agreement that will compromise a treaty and complementary agreements. In other words, it is a framework that will orient the pursuit of negotiations towards a treaty over the next two years. WHY NEGOTIATE? Quebecers and the Innu have lived together on the same territory for 400 years without ever deciding on the aboriginal rights of the Innu.

  • Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory
    Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 CAUT Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 The following document offers the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) recommended territorial acknowledgement for institutions where our members work, organized by province. While most of these campuses are included, the list will gradually become more complete as we learn more about specific traditional territories. When requested, we have also included acknowledgements for other post-secondary institutions as well. We wish to emphasize that this is a guide, not a script. We are recommending the acknowledgements that have been developed by local university-based Indigenous councils or advisory groups, where possible. In other places, where there are multiple territorial acknowledgements that exist for one area or the acknowledgements are contested, the multiple acknowledgements are provided.

  • 3. Naskapi Women: Words, Narratives, and Knowledge
    chapter three Naskapi Women Words, Narratives, and Knowledge Carole Lévesque, Denise Geoffroy, and Geneviève Polèse By sharing their stories and knowledge, Naskapi women have played a key role in the reconstruction of the cultural and ecological heritage of their people. The Naskapi, who live in the subarctic region of the province of Québec, today represent about nine hundred people, most of whom reside in the village of Kawawachikamach, located about fifteen kilometres from the former mining town of Schefferville, along the 55th parallel (see map 3.1). The first written reports of the Naskapi date from the late eighteenth century. It appears that, at the time of the Europeans’ arrival, the peoples to whom these reports refer did not form a single, integrated group rather they were several groups of hunters who ranged across the northern portion of the Québec Labrador peninsula (Lévesque, Rains, and de Juriew 2001). The evidence suggests that these were families or groups of hunters of Innu origin who, sometime around the mid-eighteenth century, had apparently migrated to the hinterland of the subarctic region from the North Shore of the St. Lawrence (where several Innu bands had settled). Initially few in number, the Naskapi are said to have comprised about three hundred people around 1830 (Lévesque et al. 2001). 59 doi:10.15215/aupress/9781771990417.01 Ungava Bay Québec Fort Chimo Fort McKenzie Kawawachikamach Newfoundland and Labrador Québec Map 3.1 Location of the Naskapi village of Kawawachikamach, northern Québec.

  • Learning from Innu Activist Elizabeth Penashue's Diaries
    The Pedagogy of Translation: Learning from Innu activist Elizabeth Penashue’s Diaries ELIZABETH YEOMAN Memorial University of Newfoundland Collaborating In every communicative act there is a gap -- between teller and listener, between writer and reader, between signifier and signified. However, this gap can be a creative space in which new forms of agency and of voice may arise... A diversity of forms of affiliation is possible and indeed necessary to recognize the struggle of writing and of telling a more just story of Indigenous presence in North America, through the mode of cross-cultural collaboration. (Sophie McCall, 2011, p. 213) You don’t have to write exactly what I said because my English is not that good. You can use other words but it have to mean exactly what I said. (Elizabeth Penashue) I first met Elizabeth Penashue when I interviewed her for a CBC Ideas radio documentary on the theme of walking. I was in St. John’s and she Journal of the Canadian Association for Curriculum Studies Volume 10 Number 2, 2012 The Pedagogy of Translation: Learning from Innu activist Elizabeth Penashue’s Diaries YEOMAN was in Goose Bay. It was the first interview she had ever given in English and she had brought her daughter to help her. As she described the annual weeks-long walk she leads on snowshoes across the Labrador wilderness, and its meaning in relation to her quest for environmental justice and cultural survival for the Innu, she wept … and so did I. Somehow across our vast cultural and linguistic difference and through our tears, we connected.

  • Migration: a Way of Life for the Innu Newfoundland - Secondary
    MIGRATION: A WAY OF LIFE FOR THE INNU NEWFOUNDLAND - SECONDARY Migration: A Way of life for the Innu of Labrador for Thousands of Years Lesson Overview: This lesson is to introduce students to the idea of migration by integrating the link between migration and Canada’s Aboriginal peoples. In this case, students will be studying the Innu People of Quebec and Labrador. The Innu have been living in Quebec and Labrador for thousands of years and have migrated over their land for all of that time. Today, migrations still occur but it is not like it was in the “old” days. Most of the Innu today live seasonally in the country and reside in communities in Quebec and in two communities: Sheshatshiu (Shet a Shee) and Natuashish (Nat wa Shish) in Labrador for the remainder of the year. Grade Level: Grades 9-12 Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island Grade 9 Social Studies, “Atlantic Canada in the Global Community” Newfoundland and Labrador, Grade 10-12: Canadian Geography, and World Geography. Time Required: This lesson can be completed in two one-hour periods. One class should be used for outlining the subject matter: giving the definitions, exploring the geographic area through maps, and discussion. In the second class, students should move to a computer lab and look at the website that supports the Innu culture and deals with family migrations. The link students should go to for this lesson is: http://www.innustories.ca/1300_e.php The website is called “tipatshimuna” which in Innu-Aimum (the language spoke by most Innu today) means stories.
