    D. Mackenzie Valley Highway Extension D.1 Consultations An initial Stakeholder Workshop was held in Norman Wells on June 8, 1998. The workshop was attended by approximately 60 stakeholders and generated considerable discussion on the need-for, and benefits-of, an all-weather road. A meeting with the Sahtu Secretariat and the Sahtu Regional Land Corporation Presidents was held on November 12, 1998. The group reviewed the Terms of Reference for Environmental Scoping and Benefit Cost Studies. The Terms of Reference were also sent to other stakeholders invited to participate on the Advisory Committee. In December the Department established an Advisory Committee for this project consisting of 25 individuals representing a wide variety of interest groups and organizations. The Department has kept this committee informed of the status of projects, and held a meeting on March 17, 1999 in Norman Wells. A list of the committee members is provided below.

  • People, Place and Season: Reflections on Gwich'in Ordering Of
    People, Place and Season: Reflections on Gwich’in Ordering of Access to Resources in an Arctic Landscape by Leslie Main Johnson University of Alberta, Department of Anthropology and Canadian Circumpolar Institute and Daniel Andre, Gwichya Gwich’in Band Presented at IASCP 2000, Bloomington, Indiana It is a tenet of common property theory that local groups of people tend to evolve institutions to allocate common pool resources among community members in ways which are economically and ecologically sustainable. We are interested in the applicability of this type of analysis to subsistence systems of non-agricultural indigenous peoples. This paper is a preliminary examination of informal institutions of the Gwich’in of the Northwest Territories in Canada and how they contribute to ordering access to resources through the seasons by Gwich’in. This analysis is based on conversations by Johnson with Gwich’in and other people who have worked with Gwich’in people, and her fieldwork with Gwich’in from Fort McPherson and Tsiigehtchic in 1999 and 2000, and the insights and experiences of Andre regarding Gwich’in seasonal use of land and resources. This paper considers the resource use of the people of Fort McPherson and Tsiigehtchic. It does not deal with the mixed Gwich’in-Inuvialuit-non-Indigenous communities of Aklavik and Inuvik, which are historically more complex. We will consider three principal areas in this analysis: fishing, trapping, and caribou. It must be emphasized that this discussion uses an analytic framework which differs in important ways from the usual perspective of Gwich’in people. The conceptualization of diverse elements of traditional subsistence as “resources”, for example, and the discussion of these as things separate from a seasonal flow of life is not an indigenous perspective.

    Local Knowledge of Fish Movements and Habitat Use in the Travaillant Lake System Gwich’in Renewable Resource Board Report 04-06 Janet Winbourne September 30, 2004 DEDICATION This report is dedicated to Billy Cardinal, a Tsiigehtchic elder, who passed away on April 29th, 2004. Billy was a well-respected traditional hunter and trapper, who cared deeply for the land. We will miss his guidance and wisdom. Cover Photo: Dan Andre with lake trout, Travaillant Lake, July 2003 (GRRB). __________________________________________________________________________ Local Knowledge of Fish Movements and Habitat Use in the Travaillant Lake System i SUMMARY Local knowledge regarding fish and fish habitat has been gathered to provide baseline information about fish distribution, movement and habitat use, as well as ecological characteristics of lakes and streams in the Travaillant Lake (Khaii luk) system. During the first phase of the research, various databases were searched for previously recorded traditional ecological knowledge. A literature review was also conducted to compile any information relevant to the study topic and area. A list of sources searched, search keywords, and pertinent results are included as part of this report. The second phase of the research involved conducting interviews with community members from Tsiigehtchic and Inuvik to document traditional and contemporary local knowledge of the Travaillant Lake area. Twenty-six participants were chosen for their knowledge regarding fish and fish habitat in the study area. Semi-structured individual or group interviews (2-4 people) were conducted in March and April, 2004, in the two communities. An interview guide consisting of 12 open-ended questions was used during each interview.

Fisheries Biologist Gwich’in Renewable Resource Board Box 2240 Inuvik, NT X0E 0T0 Phone: 867.777.6607 Fax: 867.777.6601 Email: [email protected] Summary Loche (burbot, Lota lota) were collected from traditional fishing locations near four communities in the Gwich’in Settlement Area (GSA), Northwest Territories. Loche are a very important subsistence fish for the Gwich’in people especially their livers, which are considered a delicacy to most elders. Community concerns about the quality, in association with the appearance, of loche livers has been lingering in the communities of the GSA for more then a decade. This study compared the contamination content (organochlorines and metals) in good and bad livers that were categorized by local Gwich’in fish monitors. Stable isotopes, age, length, weight, and sex were also investigated. Other samples were taken that could add to the information in future studies when funds are available. Louis Cardinal jiggling in Tsiigehtchic, May 2007 Introduction Loche (loche, Lota lota) are found throughout the Gwich’in Settlement Area (GSA). They are a very important subsistence species especially for the Gwich’in people. The traditional Gwich’in name for loche is Chehluk (GRRB 1997). The Gwich’in fish for loche with a technique called jiggling which consists of a line and usually a hand-made hook attached to a strong willow stick (GRRB 1997).

  • Old Arctic Red Site
    G Gwich'in Social & Cultural Institute Fort McPherson, NWT Nomination Form for Territorial Historic Sites Teetshik Goghaa Old Arctic Red Site Remains of the old mission house stone chimney and grave marker at Teetshik Goghaa. Photo Credit: Ingrid Kritsch, GSCI 1 MANDATORY INFORMATION What is the name of the site you are nominating? Teetshik Goghaa is the traditional Gwich’in name for an old town site that is located seven miles below Tsiigehtchic on the Mackenzie River. For a time, the community that is now Tsiigehtchic was located there. The Gwich’in name refers to the creeks that flow into the Mackenzie River at this site and translates as ‘a bundle of creeks’. It is also known in the Gwich’in language as Zheh Gwishik, which means ‘old town,’ and locally it is often now called Old Arctic Red. Early missionaries also recorded the name, spelling it as Trétchigwarat (Father Séguin in Heine et al 2007) and T’etchi-Konra (Petitot in Savoie 2001). Teetshik Goghaa, that’s just a bunch of creeks piled up in one place like. That’s what it means. 1 1 Noel Andre, Tape 25, July 28, 1992 ‐ Gwichya Gwich'in Place Names Project 1992 2 The site is located on the right (east) bank of the Mackenzie River, on the ‘eastern plateau.’ The edge of the plateau is cut through by several creeks (Pilon 1993). As is the case with many of the camps and archaeological sites along the Mackenzie River, the location of Teetshik Goghaa on these tributaries provides easy access to the site, which is located on a terrace.

  • Khaii Luk Tshik (Travaillant Creek)
    G Gwich'in Social & Cultural Institute Fort McPherson, NWT Nomination Form for Territorial Historic Sites Khaii Luk Tshik (Travaillant Creek) George Cummings, William Clark, Beth Clark, Dale Clark (rabbit skin snowsuit), Winnie Clark. Photo credit: Dale and Rose Clark. Khaii Luk Tshik. Photo credit: K Benson, GSCI MANDATORY INFORMATION What is the name of the site you are nominating? Khaii Luk Tshik is the traditional Gwich'in name for the area around the outlet of Travaillant Creek1 where it enters the Mackenzie River. When people say Travaillant River or Travaillant Creek, they are generally referring to this location rather than the whole creek. It was a small traders camp and community known for its large gardens and strategic location to numerous important old-time trails connecting hunting, fishing, and trapping areas to the Mackenzie River. Does the site have a story? If so, what is it? Khaii Luk Tshik is centered in the cultural and physical landscape of the Gwichya Gwich’in (now residing largely in Tsiigehtchic, NWT). Located along Nagwichoonjik – the Mackenzie River – the site has seen mythical giants and medicine men moving by its shores, been passed by countless generations of Gwich’in heading out hunting, fishing, and gathering berries, watched the earliest trappers and traders travel by foot and dog sled, been visited by early explorers, housed a small trading community complete with large sub-Arctic gardens, seen the influx of Europeans to the area and acted as a trail-head for Gwich’in travelling towards Khaii Luk – Travaillant Lake, an important fishing area. The trading post in the area was occupied from around 1927 to the mid-1950s.

    BEAUFORT DELTA DIVISIONAL EDUCATION COUNCIL Aklavik, Ft. McPherson, Inuvik, Paulatuk, Sachs Harbour, Tsiigehtchic, Tuktoyaktuk, Ulukhaktok June 5th 2020 BDDEC Parents & Guardians: I hope everyone is safe, practicing physical distancing and enjoying the warming weather here in the Beaufort Delta region. We wanted to take a moment to update you. Planning for re-entry into schools in the fall is ongoing, with ECE and BDDEC actively working together on a coordinated, system-wide approach for the upcoming school year. This planning follows the detailed criteria provided by the Office of the Chief Public Health Officer (OCPHO) on how to safely reopen schools. How education is delivered will be different for each school and community, based on factors such as school size and layout, access to technology, and the number and ages of students and staff. It is likely that individual schools will be adjusting student transportation, food programs and even scheduling, depending on their ability to accommodate the public health recommendations. Education leaders have agreed on the following priorities for the 2020-2021 school year: ● Maintaining the health and safety of students, staff and communities ● Starting the school year on time ● Maximizing in-person learning, to the extent possible ● Seeking equity across regions ● Maintaining financial supports to schools We have submitted individual and district plans to the OCPHO. Education bodies will be taking a flexible approach in their planning to account for a potential second wave of COVID-19 in the fall of 2020, which could require a return to increased public health restrictions. We will working closely with our DEC and local DEA’s to ensure communication about individual school plans are clear.

Elmer. 2014. Morphological and ecological variation among populations and sub - species of Burbot ( Lota lota [L, 1758]) from the Mackenzie River Delta, Canada. Canadian Field-naturalist 128(4): 377–384. the Burbot ( Lota lota [L, 1758]) is a holarctic distributed freshwater fish in the gadidae family. In northwestern Canada, it has an important value for local and traditional fisheries. We describe the morphology and ecology of Burbot from four populations in the Mackenzie River Delta. two subspecies come into contact in this area, which is the western edge of Lota lota maculosa distribution (one population in our study) and the eastern edge of Lota lota lota distribution (three populations in our study). We found the combined length–weight relationship in these four populations to be log 10 (weight) = −3.986 + 2.617 * log 10 (length). there was no difference in mean body length (overall mean and standard deviation 73.4 ± 8.7 cm), although the L. l. lota populations were heavier than the L. l. maculosa population. all populations differed in their carbon and nitrogen stable isotope signatures ( δ15 n overall mean 12.1 ± 1.59; δ13 C overall mean −25.54 ± 1.11).
