The Failure of Federal Indigenous Healthcare Policy in Canada
POLICY BRIEF Issue 86| February 4, 2021 The Failure of Federal Indigenous Healthcare Policy in Canada By Mike Gouldhawke LATE LAST MONTH, the federal government held two days of meetings on developing Indigenous health care legislation. These virtual meetings included some, but not all provincial and territorial health ministers, along with First Nations, Inuit and Métis Nation representatives, including Indigenous doctors, and was partly in response to the racist treatment and death of Joyce Echaquan of the Atikamekw Nation in a Quebec hospital in September of last year. If and when this legislation materializes, it will be a first in Canadian history. This country has never developed a law around Indigenous health care. As the process of development goes on, there are a variety of challenges, historically and contemporary, as well as previous calls for reform and for Canada to live up to its obligations, that should be addressed. This Brief outlines the compounding crises, and the resistance, that have constituted Indigenous healthcare in this country. Re-Prioritizing Health Policy in Canada Despite these recent meetings on developing Indigenous health legislation, and the First Ministers’ meeting in December of 2020 which prioritized the COVID-19 pandemic, federal Indigenous health policy has fallen by the wayside for decades. The 2004 Health Accord between the federal government and provinces and territories included a 10-Year Plan on improving Indigenous health, co-developed with Indigenous representative organizations, but it expired in 2014 and has yet to be replaced, despite repeated promises from the Liberal government. The Canadian Health Coalition, in a 2017 report, called the “lack of progress on closing the health gap for Aboriginal people” the most egregious of the 2004 Health Accord’s failings. -

Teaching Identities: Lessons from Aujuittuq (The Place That Never Thaws)
CHAPTER 21 Teaching Identities: Lessons from Aujuittuq (The Place That Never Thaws) Heather McLeod and Dale Vanelli Introduction Heather is an arts educator at Memorial University in Newfoundland, Can- ada, and Dale is a writer. We are spouses. In this chapter the everyday life that comes under our scrutiny is our past teaching in Aujuittuq (the place that never thaws), or the hamlet of Grise Fiord, Nunavut, (pop. 150) (cf. McLeod & Vanelli, 2015). Canada’s most northern civilian community on the southern tip of Ellesmere Island, it is 3,460 km north of Ottawa in the High Arctic. Using a duoethnographic approach (Sawyer & Norris, 2013) we examine how this landscape inscribed our bodies, and how we opened both ourselves and the discourses in which we interacted to the possibilities of change; we ask how were our teaching identities constructed in a new landscape and climate (Davies, 2000; Davies & Gannon, 2006)? Aujuittuq and Colonization in the High Arctic In Aujuittuq most inhabitants are Inuit and their first language is Inuktitut. At 76 degrees 25 north latitude, when a compass is pointed due North the nee- dle will point Southwest since it is above the magnetic North Pole. It is too far north to see the Northern Lights. A huge geographical landmass, Ellesmere Island is considered so remote that many maps of Canada omit it altogether. The hamlet is perched at the bottom of a steep glacial mountain on the very edge of Jones Sound and, for much of the year, the frozen sea ice is referred to as the land. The Canadian government created the community in 1953 for two calculated reasons. -
The Numbered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework
Western University Scholarship@Western Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi) 2010 The umbN ered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework Jean L. Manore Follow this and additional works at: https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/aprci Part of the Social Policy Commons Citation of this paper: Manore, Jean L., "The umbeN red Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework" (2010). Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi). 76. https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/aprci/76 3 The Numbered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework Jean L. Manore One of the most important ideologies prevalent within government circles during the late nineteenth century and into the twentieth was liberalism, a complex idea that manifested itself in various western countries in a variety of ways. In Canada, because of its dominance during the time the Numbered Treaties were negoti- ated, liberalism influenced not only non-Native government officials’ understand- ing of the treaties themselves, but also how they were to be implemented. Space does not allow for a full discussion of liberalism, but an examination of some of its principal characteristics will demonstrate the presence of this ideology within the texts of the Numbered Treaties, and an examination of their implementation by non-Native agents will demonstrate how the liberal order framework that developed from the ideology came to pervade non-Native interpretations of the treaties. It must be pointed out, however, that there were other ideologies and views at work that limited liberalism’s power; thus the liberal order framework in Canada had to be adaptive and at times even ambiguous in its application.
