Print. i FOREWORD FROM THE NATIONAL CHIEF Greetings, First Nations are committed to respecting and upholding environmental integrity and fulfilling our sacred responsibility to protect and care for our traditional territories. Climate change is creating increased challenges for First Nations and the exercise of our traditional harvesting practices. These kinds of barriers to traditional food sources can increase food insecurity, which can have a profound impact on the lives of our people. The First Nations Food, Nutrition, Environment Study (FNFNES) demonstrates how traditional food consumption can have an immense, positive impact on the daily nutritional outcomes for First Nations people. The Assembly of First Nations (AFN) advocates on behalf of our inherent rights, Aboriginal and Treaty rights and our rights in international law, including the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. In all cases, these include our rights to access our traditional food sources. The FNFNES serves as a point-in-time indicator of a changing world and seeks to capture the environmental and nutrition health of First Nations people. It is a ten-year project mandated by the Chiefs-in-Assembly and developed in partnership with First Nations and academia. The study seeks to quantify the health of our traditional food sources, the quality and amount of food sources First Nations consume daily, and the quality of water in our territories. Studies like FNFNES can assist First Nations in making informed decisions about their environment as well as environmental stewardship. I want to extend my thanks for all those who made this report possible, including First Nation participants, coordinators, research assistants, Health Canada, principal investigators, and the First Nations themselves. This is about the health of our people and our traditional territories. Kinanâskomitin, Perry Bellegarde National Chief Assembly of First Nations ii Results from Saskatchewan 2015 FOREWORD FROM THE SASKATCHEWAN REGIONAL CHIEF Greetings, First Nations in Saskatchewan are committed to maintaining and enhancing their relationship with the environment. As Regional Chief, it is an honour and a privilege to be an advocate for First Nations. As we seek to revitalize our Indigenous cultures, the powerful linkage between traditional foods and culture form a strong bond. As an advocate for the Inherent and Treaty Rights of First Nations in Saskatchewan, the use of data in producing better health outcomes will lead to stronger Indigenous peoples overall. This is why we are pleased to present the First Nations Food, Nutrition and Environment Study (FNFNES) as an example of what partnerships can accomplish. Without the fulsome cooperation and inclusion of First Nations, this project would not have been possible. In building towards a collective vision of what First Nations’ interaction with the environment can be, the baseline data in studies like FNFNES can serve as an important marker. Please join us in congratulating these First Nations on the completion of this project and a thank you to all those who made this possible.

  • Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction a Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada
    Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction A Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada Len Garis, Sarah Hughan, Paul Maxim, and Alex Tyakoff October 2016 Executive Summary Despite the steady reduction in rates of fire that have been witnessed in Canada in recent years, ongoing research has demonstrated that there continue to be striking inequalities in the way in which fire risk is distributed through society. It is well-established that residential dwelling fires are not distributed evenly through society, but that certain sectors in Canada experience disproportionate numbers of incidents. Oftentimes, it is the most vulnerable segments of society who face the greatest risk of fire and can least afford the personal and property damage it incurs. Fire risks are accentuated when property owners or occupiers fail to install and maintain fire and life safety devices such smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors in their homes. These life saving devices are proven to be highly effective, inexpensive to obtain and, in most cases, Canadian fire services will install them for free. A key component of driving down residential fire rates in Canadian cities, towns, hamlets and villages is the identification of communities where fire risk is greatest. Using the internationally recognized Home Safe methodology described in this study, the following Aboriginal and Non- Aboriginal communities in provinces and territories across Canada are determined to be at heightened risk of residential fire. These communities would benefit from a targeted smoke alarm give-away program and public education campaign to reduce the risk of residential fires and ensure the safety and well-being of all Canadian citizens.
