  • Appendix 1 What We Heard from Policy Communities
    Appendix 1 What we heard from policy communities Background In the Terms of Reference issued by the Minister of Conservation on September 1 2011, the Clean Environment Commission was asked to “hear evidence from Manitobans regarding the impacts of Lake Winnipeg regulation since the project was put into commercial use by Manitoba Hydro on August 1, 1976.” Over the period of approximately one month (January 12, 2015 to February 18, 2015), the Clean Environment Commission (CEC) attended 17 communities surrounding Lake Winnipeg.1 They also held two evening public sessions in Winnipeg and received a number of written submissions from the public.2 The CEC heard from many residents and users around the Lake including: cottage owners, permanent residents, Indigenous people, agricultural farmers, commercial and subsistence fishermen, and people and organizations from the tourism and recreation industry. There is disagreement in terms of the implications of Lake Winnipeg Regulation on Lake Winnipeg. Manitoba Hydro argues that its effects are generally either positive, benign or insignificant. Others take the position that LWR in conjunction with other Hydro activities has adverse and ongoing effect on the Lake. Among the prominent concerns are: • Lack of confidence in Manitoba Hydro, the Province and the CEC Hearing process on LWR • Lack of transparency of Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba Government operations of LWR • Lack of meaningful ongoing engagement • Sense of exclusion by upstream, downstream and Indigenous people • A sense that Manitoba hydro

The directory also serves as a means of improving communications among people.

The directory reflects the vitality and diversity of Indigenous cultural traditions, organizations, and enterprises.

  • Tataskweyak Cree Nation Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation
    Expo 06: WWestnet’s Essential Skills Expo Final Report and Resource Guide WW Tataskweyak Cree Nation Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation Essential Skills in Training for Cree Nation Apprentices E. Gordon McGillivray Ezra Bogle This workshop explained how essential skills are utilized in the training provided for Tataskweyak Cree trades’ apprentices as they move through apprenticeship training programs. The Tataskweyak Cree Nation employment and training initiative in Split Lake is part of one of the largest projects in northern Manitoba. The Nation is working with the Manitoba Apprenticeship Branch to move their trades’ people through the apprenticeship levels to reach journeyman status and increase the number of journeypersons in the community. The Nation also works with a number of training service providers to provide training in the Heavy Equipment Operators, Crane Operators, and Trucking Industry fields. Designated trades apprentices and non- designated trainees from the employment and training initiatives are being placed on the job throughout Manitoba and as far away as Calgary, Alberta. Ezra Bogle of the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation then described the development of Atoskiwin Training and Employment Centre (ATEC) in Nelson House MB and the training offered at the Centre, including the essential skills focused training. The ATEC Centre of Excellence was developed in partnership with many stakeholders including Manitoba Hydro. All of the training programs have a life skills component which trainees must complete. E.
