  • January 8 ,2021
    January 8th, 2021 Message from Leadership • Unfortunately, the Cree Nation is facing a jump in COVID-19 cases. It is not the time for blame or accusations, but it must be known that the cases originated with social gatherings contrary to restrictions and advisories in Eeyou Istchee and in the municipality of Chibougamau. • The Cree leadership knows how hard it is to remain vigilant after months of such strict measures and it will be even harder as the vaccination campaign gains momentum and people feel that they do not need to be as careful. The recent jump in cases is evidence that we cannot let our guard down. • The Cree leadership is confident that the Contact Tracing team at the Public Health Department of the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay is the best in the province and will succeed in containing the current cases by early next week. 11 cases have been identified with more to be tested, but due to the excellent work of the Cree Health Board these people were already in isolation and do not pose a risk to the community. The Cree Health Board has been very proactive ensuring that people are isolating even if there is a small chance that they could have come in contact with the 11 confirmed cases and will continue to test these people with a view to confirming that cases are now contained. It is anticipated that we will be able to announce this on January 12th, 2021. January 8th, 2021 Travelling With the “Lockdown” measures that were announced by the Government of Quebec closing all non-essential services outside Eeyou Istchee this week, there is NO reason for people to be traveling outside of a Cree community for non-essential purposes.

The founding shareholders, Eeyou Companee, Eeyou Communications Network (ECN) and SSi Canada (SSi), will help provide strong local wireless coverage in nine Cree communities* and five Jamésien municipalities**, with planning underway for highway and access road coverage to improve traveller safety and security across the region. Beta users in Ouje-Bougoumou are the first to experience calling, texting and internet browsing on the new Cree-controlled service provider. Today, the first calls and video chats were placed from northern Quebec by Abel Bosum, Grand Chief of the Grand Council of the Crees (Eeyou Istchee) and Chairman of Eeyou Companee, to other Eeyou Mobility beta users roaming in Montreal and elsewhere in southern Canada, made possible by roaming services with Rogers Communications. eeyoumobility.com Eeyou Mobility News Release March 17, 2021 The new Eeyou Mobility service will be rolled out commercially over the coming months as each of the communities on the network is tested and activated.

  • An Investigation of Cree Indian Domestic Fisheries in Northern Quebec
    ARCTIC VOL. 32,NO. 1 (MARCH 1979), P. 46-70 An Investigation of Cree Indian Domestic Fisheries in Northern Quebec FIKRET BERKES’ ABSTRACT. Domestic or subsistence fisheries of the eastern James Bay Cree. were studied, mainlyin Fort George, by direct observation. These fisheries were characterized by large numbers of participants, low catches per day and per fisherman, but high catches per length of net used, as compared to commercial fisheries. Most stocks appear lightly utilized, but in the vicinity of larger settlements there is evidence that some stocks are overfished. The total catch may be increased by distributing the fishing effort more evenly over a larger area. Fish resource base of the region appears suitable for supporting local economic development with respect to recreational fisheries and native-run commercial fisheries for the local market, as well as maintaining the domestic fishery. R&UMe. On a ktudie, par observation directe, principalement a Fort Georges, les types de pbche, familiales ou de subsistance. Les pbcheries sont caractensees par le grand nombre de participants, la faiblesse des prises, par jour et par pbcheur, mais aussi par l’importance des prise par longueur de filet utili&, en comparison avec la pbche commerciale. La plus grande partie des reserves parait peu utilisee,mais dans les regions de colonies plus importantes, il est evident qu’on a trop pbch6 de poissons. On peut kgalement accroitre la prise totale, en repartissant I’effort de pbche sur une plus grande &endue. Les ressources de la pbche, base de la region, apparaissent suffisantes pour supporter un developpement tconomique local, en respectant le pbche de distraction et la pbche commerciale des indigknes pour le march6 local, tout en maintenant la pbche familiale.
