  • National Aboriginal Awareness Week Booklet
    National Aboriginal Awareness Week 2016 May 19–22 Aboriginal Awareness This week of celebration is an opportunity for all Canadians, especially young people and educators, who have the opportunity to create a Shared Teachings/Learnings environment to learn more about Aboriginal cultural heritages of Canada. By sharing our knowledge and experience, there will be greater understanding and harmony among all Canadians. In recognition of the many aboriginal cultures and experiential difference that exist among the BC and Canadian aboriginals, the Shared Teachings/Learnings suggested in this booklet are intended to highlight Aboriginal peoples, events, places, issues and realities that are statement of knowledge about Aboriginal peoples’ cultures, values, beliefs, traditions, history and languages. Source(s) Shared Learning: Integrating BC Aboriginal Content K–10 Did you know? Did you know that some of BC’s towns or cities have names that come from aboriginal sources. Find out what the following names mean and from which language the words come from. Match the names with the description. Chilliwack The name comes from an Okanagan word meaning “the always place”, in the sense of a permanent dwelling place. Coquitlam Is the name of the local tribe, ch.ihl-KWAY-uhk. This word is generally interpreted to mean “going back up”. Kamloops Is likely from the Salish tribal name which is translated as “small red salmon”. The name refers to the sockeye salmon common to the area. Suggestion: Make up your own matching work list or create a word search, etc. Place names reveal Aboriginal peoples’ contributions: Place names are never just meaningless sounds.

    Appendix “A” Transcript: CBC Sounds Like Canada, May 14, 20081 Shelagh Rogers: …Canada, and I'm Shelagh Rogers. There are many conflicts across the country between natives and non-natives over resource development. Six Anishinabi leaders from Northern Ontario are in jail at the moment because they tried to stop a uranium mine on their traditional territory. Tensions remain high on the boundary between the Six Nations Reserve and Caledonia, Ontario. The Six Nations people oppose a housing project on land they claim as theirs. Disagreements about industrial development occur within aboriginal families, as well. <00:33> Today's generation of aboriginal leaders can make decisions their elders oppose, and these disagreements can create some tension. Peter Penashue is Deputy Grand Chief of the Innu Nation in Labrador, and he supports the provincial government's plan to develop more hydroelectric power on the Churchill River. His mother, Tshaukuesh, strongly disagrees. They're in Goose Bay this morning. Hello to you both. <01:00> Peter Penashue: Good morning. Tshaukuesh Penashue: Good morning. Shelagh Rogers: Peter, would you start by telling me how the first phase of the Churchill Falls Hydroelectric Project affected your people? That was back in the 1970s. 1 Audio file previously submitted to Joint Review Panel. Inaudible portions highlighted. Page 1 of 10 Peter Penashue: Yes, the project released for operation in 1974, and at that time the land that was flooded was 5,700 square kilometres, which was a huge tract of land and flooded many of the traditional lands of the Innu people, and valuable historical lands, and flooded the burial grounds.

  • Indigenous Genocide and Perceptions of the Holocaust in Canada1
    Indigenous Genocide and Perceptions of the Holocaust in Canada1 David B. MacDonald This chapter explores genocide against Indigenous peoples in what is now Canada and the ways this topic has been tied to larger discussions of genocide and the Holocaust. Contemporary genocide claims in Canada revolve primarily around the Indian Residential Schools (IRS) system (1834–1996). Attempts to deal with the IRS system and its aftermath led to the establishment of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples (RCAP) in 1991 and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada (2009–15). While the RCAP was set up by the federal government, the TRC was an outcome of Indigenous-led litigation to compensate for the widespread and systematic abuses endured in the IRS system. Both commissions provided a forum for Indigenous and settler peoples to discuss genocide, understood according to the standard legally binding definition in the United Nations Genocide Convention of 1948. In a more derivative sense, the Americanisation of the Holocaust during the 1990s and the history wars over Holocaust uniqueness and Indigenous genocide had an influence on some scholars and activists in Canada. This marked a phase of what Michael Rothberg has called ‘competitive memory’, featuring debates over whether the Holocaust was unique and whether Indigenous history was marked by genocide or something else.2 Holocaust uniqueness theorists such as Steven Katz in 1994 asserted that the Holocaust could not be compared to other atrocities in world history. This provoked

Abstract The diploma thesis deals with the emergence of Canadian popular music and the development of music genres that enjoyed the greatest popularity in Canada. A significant part of the thesis is devoted to an investigation of conditions connected to the relation of Canadian music and Canadian sense of identity and uniqueness. Further, an account of Canadian radio broadcasting and induction of regulating acts which influenced music production in Canada in the second half of the twentieth century are given. Moreover, the effectiveness and contributions of these regulating acts are summarized and evaluated. Last but not least, the main characteristics of the music style of a female singer songwriter Joni Mitchell are examined.

    Indigenous Governance & Partnership Program This newsletter provides a snapshot of some recent developments within the Indigenous Governance and Partnerships Program at the Faculty of Native Studies. INDIGENOUS Since the launch of the Certificate in Aboriginal Governance and Partnership in 2007, the Faculty of Native Studies has expanded governance programming; in 2015, with a partnership with the School of Business Executive Education - the Indigenous Partnership Development Program (IPDP); and in 2016, a community research partnership project with the Métis Nation of Alberta. tawâw While governance is unique to language, place, relationships, and community, we are also informed and guided by the overarching experiences that connect us together - similar to how the University of Alberta has been a gathering place for diverse Indigenous tân’si peoples including the Cree, Blackfoot, Metis, Nakota Sioux, Iroquois, Dene, Ojibway/Saulteaux/Anishnaabe, Inuit, and many others whose histories, languages, and cultures continue to guide good hadih relationships - to challenge oppression and racism and support equitable approaches to “uplifting the whole people”. drin gwinzii Our programming also strives to provide context for and to continue momentum in the broader national and international societal shifts in these relationships, such as the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, and the implementation of the United tawnshi Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
