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.

  • 249 the Sheshatshiu Sociolinguistic Variability
    249 THE SHESHATSHIU SOCIOLINGUISTIC VARIABILITY PROJECT: A PRELIMINARY REPORT Marguerite MacKenzie and Sandra Clarke Memorial University of Newfoundland Introduction This paper constitutes a preliminary report on the investigation of linguistic variation among the speakers of a dialect of Montagnais spo­ ken at Sheshatshiu, Labrador. The project was undertaken in the fall of 1981 and fieldwork was carried out early in 1982. The purpose of the project is, first, to provide detailed documentation on the linguis­ tic variation known to exist among the speakers of Montagnais in this village and, second, to try to correlate any patterns of variation with non-linguistic factors. This study is of particular interest because the community of Sheshatshiu is highly different from the urban, socially stratified communities for which the investigative techniques common to modern sociolinguistic research have been developed. The people of Sheshatshiu are semi-nomadic hunters who have traditionally lived in small family groups. They are now resident for a good portion of the year in a single location, the community of Sheshatshiu, which is clearly non-industrial, has virtually no economic base, and exists by virtue of the fact that in former years it was a summer gathering place for families who had spent the entire winter hunting and trapping in the bush. At the moment, the largest employers in the community are the school and the band administration. The Montagnais dialect spoken today by residents of Sheshatshiu is noteworthy for its degree of intracommunity variability. Clearly, in such an apparently non-economically stratified society, the variable of informant socio-economic status could hardly be expected to aid in accounting for this perceived linguistic variability.

    Innu Round Table Secretariat 211 Peenamin Drive, PO Box 449 Sheshatshiu, NL A0P 1M0 Ph: (709) 497-3854 Fax: 709-497-3881 EXPRESSION OF INTEREST: INNU ROUND TABLE SECRETARIAT MIDWIFERY CONSULTANT Background The Innu Round Table Secretariat (IRT Sec) is the collective organization of the Mushuau Innu First Nation (MIFN), the Sheshatshiu Innu First Nation (SIFN), and the Innu Nation. It was created for coordinated administration of common priorities including capacity development, devolution of programs, and managing the tripartite process with Canada and the province of Newfoundland & Labrador (NL). Prior to the 1960’s the Innu of Labrador were nomadic and practiced traditional midwifery. In recent focus groups in Sheshatshiu and Natuashish Innu elders remembered and described childbearing on Innu lands in the past. After settlement of Sheshatshiu and Davis Inlet, traditional midwives continued to provide care in the communities for a short time before childbirth was moved out of the community and to Happy Valley Goose Bay. Currently Innu women and families are not receiving midwifery care by Innu midwives. Care is fragmented and women are seeing different providers for different aspects of their care which makes it difficult to build trusting relationships. Some care is provided in the community but there are no children being born in Sheshatshiu and/or Natuashish. All Innu women are required to travel to the Labrador Grenfell Health hospital which is located in Happy Valley Goose Bay. Other than a couple Innu interpreters Labrador Grenfell Health has no professional Innu health staff, making the hospital a foreign and uninviting environment to all Innu people.

  • The Transition from the Migratory to the Resident Fishery in the Strait of Belle Isle*
    PATRICIA THORNTON The Transition from the Migratory to the Resident Fishery in the Strait of Belle Isle* THE EVOLUTION OF THE MERCHANT COLONIAL system in Newfoundland from migratory ship fishery to permanent resident fishery was a process which was repeated several times over the course of the colony's history, as frontier conditions retreated before the spread of settlement. On the east coast, the transition from a British-based shore fishery operated by hired servants to one in which merchants became suppliers and marketers for Newfoundland fishing families took place in the second half of the 18th century. Further north and on the south coast the migratory fishery persisted longer,1 but it was only in the Strait of Belle Isle that it held sway from its inception in the 1760s until well into the 1820s. Then here too it was slowly transformed into a resident fishery as migratory personnel became residents of the shore, with the arrival of settlers from Conception and Trinity Bays and merchants and traders from St John's and Halifax. Gerald Sider has provided an integrated and provocative conceptual framework within which to view this transformation. Three aspects of his thesis will be examined here. First, he states that the English merchants, controlling the migratory fishery throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, opposed permanent settlement and landed property. Second, he claims that in the face of settlement in the first four decades of the 19th century, the merchants reacted by getting out of the fishing business and entrapping the resident fishermen in a cashless truck system, a transition from wages to truck which, he claims, represented a loss to the fishermen and which had to be forcibly imposed by the courts.

Ms. G. Cheryl Blundon, Board Secretary Board of Commissioners of Public Utilities 120 Torbay Road P.O. Box 21040 S1. John's NL AlA 5B2 16 June 2015 Dear Members of the Board of Commissioners of Public Utilities: My name is Gregory Rich and I have been Chief of Mushuau Innu First Nation since 2013. My community, as part of Innu Nation, is making submissions before the Newfoundland and Labrador Public Utilities Board about electricity services in my community of Natuashish. I would like to take this opportunity to share some of my knowledge with the Board about my community's situation. Almost ten years ago, Mushuau Innu were located at Davis Inlet, at a site chosen for us by missionaries. It was not a good situation for us. The location of our community at Davis Inlet made many of our problems worse, and created many new problems for us as well. Ever since our First Nation relocated to Natuashish, things have gotten better for us. With better infrastructure, and a better location for our community, our community is getting stronger. One of the most important issues facing our people, though, is the issue of electricity services in our community. Right now, Natuashish is the only community in all of the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador that is not part of the regulated rate system.
