  • Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe

    Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe

    Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe ALAN CORBIERE Kinoomaadoog Cultural and Historical Research M'Chigeeng First Nation This paper will outline uses of Ojibwe1 literacy by the Manitoulin Island Nishnaabeg2 in the period from 1823 to 1910. Most academic articles on the historical use of written Ojibwe indicate that Ojibwe literacy was usu­ ally restricted to missionaries and was used largely in the production of religious materials for Christianizing Native people. However, the exam­ ples provided in this paper will demonstrate that the Nishnaabeg of Mani­ toulin Island3 had incorporated Ojibwe literacy not only in their religious correspondence but also in their personal and political correspondence. Indeed, Ojibwe literacy served multiple uses and had a varied audience and authorship. The majority of materials written in Ojibwe over the course of the 19th century was undoubtedly produced by non-Native people, usually missionaries and linguists (Nichols 1988, Pentland 1996). However, there are enough Nishnaabe-authored Ojibwe documents housed in various archives to demonstrate that there was a burgeoning Nishnaabe literacy movement from 1823 to 1910. Ojibwe documents written by Nishnaabe chiefs, their secretaries, and by educated Nishnaabeg are kept at the fol­ lowing archives: the United Chief and Councils of Manitoulin's Archives, the National Archives of Canada, the Jesuit Archives of Upper Canada and the Archives of Ontario. 1. In this paper I will use the term Ojibwe when referring to the language spoken by the Nishnaabeg of Manitoulin. Manitoulin Nishnaabeg include the Ojibwe, Potawatomi and Odawa nations. The samples of "Ojibwe writing" could justifiably be called "Odawa writ- ing.

    The Manitoulin Phragmites Project Results of 2019 Work Compiled by Judith Jones, Project Coordinator, October 2019

    The Manitoulin Phragmites Project Results of 2019 Work compiled by Judith Jones, Project Coordinator, October 2019 Volunteers and Phrag Project team controlling Phragmites at Mud Bay, Cockburn Island Phragmites (“frag-MITE-eeze”) is a hugely tall, European grass that has been spreading aggressively on shorelines and in wetlands in our area. Phragmites can quickly grow into dense patches which eventually wipe out all other vegetation. It is a serious threat to property values, recreation, tourism, biodiversity, and aesthetics. Southern Ontario has lost hectares and hectares of beaches and other natural habitat to Phragmites. The Manitoulin Phragmites Project was started to make sure this does not happen here! We have just finished our 4th season of work on Manitoulin, Cockburn, and Great Duck Islands. You are receiving this letter because there is Phragmites on your property or in your jurisdiction, or because you have been involved with the project. We want you to know where the Phragmites is or was (page 4), what has been done, and how the results turned out. We also want to talk about the future to ensure we maintain what has been achieved. The work of the Project has been EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL! You can see some striking before and after photos on our Facebook page: Manitoulin Phragmites Project. On Manitoulin Island, all of the Lake Huron shore from South Baymouth to the Mississaugi Lighthouse is completely clear of Phragmites except the mouth of Blue Jay Creek and the bay east of Burnt Island. On Cockburn Island and Great Duck Island, all sand dune habitat is now clear of Phrag.
  • The Anishinaabeg, Benevolence, and State Indigenous Policy in the Nineteenth-Century Great Lakes Basin

    The Anishinaabeg, Benevolence, and State Indigenous Policy in the Nineteenth-Century Great Lakes Basin

    American Studies in Scandinavia, 50:1 (2018), pp. 101-122. Published by the Nordic Association for American Studies (NAAS). The Border Difference: The Anishinaabeg, Benevolence, and State Indigenous Policy in the Nineteenth-Century Great Lakes Basin Susan E. Gray Arizona State University Abstract: After the War of 1812, British and American authorities attempted to se- quester the Anishinaabeg—the Three Fires of the Ojibwes (Chippewas), Odawas (Ot- tawas), and Boodewadamiis (Potawatomis)—on one side of the Canada-US border or the other. The politics of the international border thus intersected with evolving fed- eral/state and imperial/provincial Native American/First Nations policies and prac- tices. American officials pursued land cessions through treaties followed by removals of Indigenous peoples west of the Mississippi. Their British counterparts also strove to clear Upper Canada (Ontario) of Indigenous title, but instead of removal from the province attempted to concentrate the Anishinaabeg on Manitoulin and other smaller islands in northern Lake Huron. Most affected by these policies were the Odawas, whose homeland was bisected by the international border. Their responses included two colonies underwritten by missionary and government support, one in Michigan and the other on Manitoulin Island, led by members of the same family intent on pro- viding land and educational opportunities for their people. There were real, if subtle, differences, however, in the languages of resistance and networks of potential white allies then available to Indigenous people in Canada and the US. The career trajecto- ries and writings of two cousins, sons of the brothers who helped to craft the Odawa cross-border undertaking exemplify these cross-border differences.

    Ontario Early Years Child and Family Centre Plan

    Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board Ontario Early Years Child and Family Centres (OEYCFC) OEYCFC Plan and Local Needs Assessment Summary 2017 Geographic Distinction Reference The catchment area of the Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board (Manitoulin- Sudbury DSB) includes 38 communities, towns and villages and covers a distance that spans over 42,542 square kilometres. The communities, towns and villages are represented by 18 municipal jurisdictions and 2 unorganized areas, Sudbury Unorganized North Part and Manitoulin Unorganized West Part. The catchment area of the Manitoulin- Sudbury DSB is a provincially designated area for the purposes of the delivery of social services. The municipalities represented by the Manitoulin-Sudbury DSB are: Baldwin, Espanola, Nairn and Hyman, Sables-Spanish River, Assiginack, Billings, Burpee and Mills, Central Manitoulin, Cockburn Island, Gordon/Barrie Island, Gore Bay, Northeastern Manitoulin and the Islands, Tehkummah, French River, Killarney, Markstay- Warren, St. Charles and Chapleau. The municipalities in the Manitoulin-Sudbury DSB catchment area are commonly grouped into four main areas or regions, known as LaCloche, Manitoulin Island, Sudbury East and Sudbury North. The Manitoulin-Sudbury DSB catchment area does not include First Nations territories. Data for this report has been derived, for the most part, from Statistics Canada. We have used the most recent data (2016) whenever possible and have used 2011 data where the 2016 data is not yet available. From a Statistics Canada perspective, data for the catchment area of the Manitoulin-Sudbury DSB falls within two Census Divisions, Manitoulin District and Sudbury District. Manitoulin District and Sudbury District Census Divisions: The Manitoulin District – otherwise known as Manitoulin Island – includes 10 census subdivisions containing 14 communities, town and villages, and one unorganized territory.
  • Veteran Ships of the Tobermory/Manitoulin Island Run—Where Are They Now? H

    Veteran Ships of the Tobermory/Manitoulin Island Run—Where Are They Now? H

    VETERAN SHIPS OF THE TOBERMORY/MANITOULIN ISLAND RUN—WHERE ARE THEY NOW? H. David Vuckson Part of this story originally appeared in the former Enterprise- Bulletin newspaper on September 11, 2015 under the title CROSSING ON THE CHI-CHEEMAUN WAS SMOOTH AND PLEASANT. This is a much expanded and updated version of that story that focuses on the three ships used on the Tobermory to Manitoulin Island run from the mid-20th Century until September 1974 when the Chi-Cheemaun began operating, and on their present situation and where they are located in their retirement. With the Second World War production of corvettes and minesweepers (as well as tankers and coastal freighters that were also needed for the war effort) behind them, the Collingwood Shipyard entered the second half of the 1940’s with orders for a variety of peacetime ships to carry cargo and 1 of 12 passengers on the Great Lakes as well as an order for three hopper barges for the Government of France. The dual firm of Owen Sound Transportation Co. Ltd./Dominion Transportation Co. Ltd. had been operating passenger/freight vessels for many years. With the war over and a return to a peacetime economy, some older vessels could now be retired and replaced with brand new ships. This story focuses on the three ships operated by the firm in the late 1940’s, 1950s and 1960’s and into the early 1970’s: M.S. Normac, S.S./M.S. Norgoma and S.S. Norisle, one elderly, the other two brand new. After the war, two new ferries were ordered from the Collingwood Shipyard by the Owen Sound firm.

Abstract Deep below the passing footsteps of the public, sacred Medicine Songs and Stories are held within Vault 54 of Museum London in London, Ontario. The oldest known audio recordings of the Anishinaabeg in Ontario were discovered in the summer of 2011 by Bimadoshka Pucan. Contained on wax cylinders and lacquered aluminium discs, songs and stories are recorded by Robert and Elizabeth Thompson of Chief’s Point Indian Reserve #28. Not all recordings are considered sacred by the Anishinaabeg, instead the collection provides a broad range of topics including humour, the fur trade, plant medicine, and family history. Sometime before 1939, at the University of Western Ontario, Dr. Edwin Seaborn organized the production of 19 audio recordings. The March of Medicine in Western Ontario (1944) signaled to their creation by preserving the Saugeen Anishinaabeg oral tradition of the death of Tecumseh, a story that continues to live on within specific families at Saugeen First Nation #29.
