News Release Communique 2-3396 CANADA, ALDERVILLE FIRST NATION AND CITY OF BELLEVILLE CELEBRATE IMPORTANT MILESTONE BELLEVILLE, ONTARIO (August 6, 2010) — Member of Parliament Rick Norlock, on behalf of the Honourable Chuck Strahl, Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development and Federal Interlocutor for Metis and Non-Status Indians, and Mayor Neil Ellis of the City of Belleville participated in a special ceremony today hosted by Chief James Marsden of the Alderville First Nation. The ceremony, held in Belleville, commemorated the First Nation's past presence in the City of Belleville, as well as the resolution of their specific claim. “Today’s event is a great opportunity to celebrate the achievement made through negotiations and collaboration to resolve this claim and to celebrate the Alderville First Nation’s longstanding presence in the area," said MP Norlock. “Canada is committed to resolving specific claims for the benefit of all Canadians and it is by working together that we can find the solutions needed to make that progress." “We are honoured to be here today as it gives us the opportunity to share a little piece of our history and we would like to thank the City of Belleville who has provided a prominent space within the Jane Forrester Park for the dedication plaque which outlines the contributions of our Grape Island ancestors and will serve as a reminder to area visitors and residents of Belleville of our connection and contributions to the Bay of Quinte area,” Some of the occupants of the nearby said Chief Marsden. waters and marshes of the Bay “We are happy the City has been able to assist with organizing today’s great event and we are pleased to host for prosperity the commemorating plaque reflecting the significant role of die First Nation here and the agreement as achieved by the First Nation and Canada," said Mayor Ellis, The Government of Canada and the Alderville First Nation resolved the Thurlow Purchase Specific Claim on March 4, 2010, The basis of the claim is that the First Nation did not receive compensation for surrendered lands and the Crown failed to protect the First Nation burial grounds from disturbance. This settlement provided the First Nation with $734,852 in financial compensation. The settlement also included the possibility for the First Nation to build a memorial plaque to commemorate their history and past burial ground in present-day Belleville. In exchange for this compensation, the First Nation provided Canada with full and final releases that ensure the claim can never be re­ opened. The First Nation and the City of Belleville worked together to identify a location for the monument. Today’s celebration helps to reconcile the past with the present and creates common ground for a shared future. In addition, the settlement was negotiated in less than two years. The Alderville First Nation was historically located on the north shore of Lake Ontario, but is now located 21 kilometres southeast of Peterborough, Ontario.

  • The First Nations
    Our First Nations Neighbours Peter Jones - c1845 According to several accounts, the first European to travel through Rice Lake was Samuel de Champlain about 1615. But... Artifacts from a 1974 archaeological dig on Rice Lake’s Sugar Island are on display in the Alderville Community Centre. They point to the existence of human settlement in this area about 1000-1500 years ago, or during the Middle Woodland Period. While all Canadians can join in the celebration of 150 years since four provinces formed the Dominion of Canada, First Nations can look back over a much longer history on these lands. The current residents of Alderville First Nation, on the south shore of Rice Lake, have a rich heritage. Wars between the various native tribes in southern Ontario and the northern American states, wars between the French and the English, changing alliances between all four, and various treaties were the story of the 1600s, 1700s and early 1800s. They all set the stage for the more recent story of our native community. At the time of the American Revolution (1775) people of the Mississauga nation were living in this area. As settlers continued to pour in from the United States, the Mississauga’s traditional semi-nomadic way of life was increasingly under threat. The landscape was changing, and the Mississauga were gradually pushed from their traditional hunting grounds. “The establishment of farms and additional settlements in the decades to follow disrupted the Mississauga’s fishing and hunting... Many Indians were hungry for new religious guidance, since their old religion seemed incapable of protecting them.” “I cannot suppose for a moment that the Supreme Disposer has decreed that the doom of Donald Smith, Sacred Feathers the red man is to fall and gradually disappear, like the mighty wilderness, before the axe of the European settler” – Peter Jones.

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.
