  • About First Nation Autonomy & Anishinabek Unity
    Anishinaabe Governance is... ABOUT FIRST NATION AUTONOMY & ANISHINABEK UNITY First Nation Autonomy - First Nation autonomy while working together in unity as the Anishinabek, an Indigenous Nation of People, has always been the basis of both the proposed Governance Agreement and the ratified Anishinabek Nation Education Agreement. Autonomy and unity were stated often by approximately 4,000 First Nation citizens who participated each year in the Nation Building and Restoration of Jurisdiction consultation processes from 1995 to now. These processes were facilitated by the Union of Ontario Indians under the direction of the Anishinabek Grand Council. There have been many Grand Council Resolutions providing direction by First Nation Chiefs over the years on the education and governance initiatives. The Anishinabek Grand Council – The Anishinabek Grand Council has its roots in the Ojibway (Chippewas), Odawa and Potawatomi Nations which formed the Confederacy of the Three Fires of peoples who shared similar languages and territories and who met together for military and political purposes. By the mid 1700s, the Council of Three Fires became the core of the Great Lakes Confederacy. The Hurons, Algonquins, Nipissing, Sauks, Foxes, and others joined the Great Lakes Confederacy. In 1870, after Canada's creation in 1867, the Confederacy transformed to the Grand General Indian Council of Ontario and Quebec. According to the minutes of the annual meetings, much of the Grand Council's time was spent on reviewing the Indian Act. Today the Anishinabek Grand Council represents 39 First Nations and approximately 65,000 First Nation citizens. The Union of Ontario Indians - In 1949, the Union of Ontario Indians (UOI) was established to replace the Grand General Indian Council.

  • Voices from the Indigenous Midwifery Summit
    Bring Birth Home! Voices from the Indigenous Midwifery Summit: A Reclamation of Community Birth Through a Northern Indigenous Vision We acknowledge the lands, waters and air of our meeting are kin to the Anishinaabeg since time before time. The Indigenous Midwifery Summit was held on the lands of the Fort William First Nation and what is now known as the Robinson Superior Treaty, which led to the formation of the City of Thunder Bay. We offer our most sincere gratitude to our northern Fort William First Nation kin in the spirit of positive, reciprocal and long-lasting relationship-building. We celebrate the diversity of gender expression and identities. The traditional use of the term “motherhood” and “woman” at times in this document includes ALL women, including trans women, two spirit people, and non-binary people. Indigenous Midwifery Summit Fort William First Nation, Robinson Superior Treaty Thunder Bay, ON February 12 and 13, 2019 “I do it for the community.

Conversely, climatic changes have significant potential to alter forest environments. Forest management options may well mitigate climate change. However, management decisions have direct and long-term consequences that will affect forest-based communities. The northern boreal forest in Ontario, Canada, in the sub-Arctic above the 51st parallel, is the territorial homeland of the Cree, Ojibwe, and Ojicree Nations.

  • Canada's Agenda 2030 National Strategy: First Nations in Northern
    Canada’s Agenda 2030 National Strategy: First Nations in northern Ontario Consultation April 30, 2019 Thank you to Eabametoong First Nation and Nishnawbe Aski Nation for their participation and support. Thank you to Ontario Council for International Cooperation for their support and openness to new ideas and voices. Contact: Dr. Shelagh McCartney, Director +city lab [email protected] Consultation with First Nations peoples in northern Ontario regarding the development of Canada’s 2030 Agenda National Strategy revealed distinct regional and cultural considerations. The unique findings of these discussions highlighted the need for a bottom-up, contextually-based approach to Strategy development. As Canada joins the collective effort towards achieving the 2030 objectives through the creation of a national strategy; it must do so in conjunction with the ongoing national dialogue and work towards truth and reconciliation. The learning and discussions that are reflected throughout this report took place at both the regional and First Nation level. While discussions formally relating to Sustainable Development Goals, Canada’s 2030 Agenda National Strategy and the Ontario Council for International Cooperation took place in March and April 2019, they were based in years of partnership and relationship between individuals at +city lab, Eabametoong First Nation and Nishnawbe Aski Nation. Learnings from throughout the span of these relationships will be drawn on to provide context and understanding throughout this report. Previous learning is used to complement findings, but also to demonstrate the relationships required to undertake such work in a meaningful way. The conversations which inform the following recommendations would not have been possible without pre-existing relationship; a finding in itself which should guide further development.

  • First Nations and Remote Communities
    20 First Nations and Remote Communities GUIDING PRINCIPLES My mandate requires me to consider what recommendations should be made to restore and enhance public confidence in pediatric forensic pathology in Ontario. Implicit in that mandate is that the revelations surrounding Dr. Smith have caused the people of Ontario to lose the confidence in pediatric forensic pathol - ogy that they previously had. There is undeniably much reason for that. However, I must also recognize that, for some, there may have been little or no confidence in how forensic pathology services were being delivered generally, even before the revelations concerning Dr. Smith. I am referring, in particular, to remote First Nations communities, although this observation may not be confined to them alone. This lack of confidence is related more broadly to the concerns about the delivery of medical and coronial services both to remote First Nations and to other remote communities in Ontario. For First Nations, inadequacies in the delivery of pediatric forensic pathology services are seen as only part of much larger systemic issues: inadequate medical care; limited financial and human resources; high mortality rates, particularly for children and young people in a number of communities; and what are seen as institutional failures to respond to the unique cultural, spiritual, religious, and linguistic character of First Nations. To illustrate the depth of these larger systemic issues, it is reported that, between 1982 and 2001, 52 per cent of the deaths in one First Nations commu - nity, Mishkeegogamang, were accidental, compared to 6 per cent in the general Canadian population. A large number of deaths were alcohol-related and involved young people.

  • Nishnawbe-Aski Nation
    Confrontations over Resources Development NAPS Ipperwash Inquiry PART I NISHNAWBE-ASKI NATION FORWARD In 1905, the grandfathers of the Ojibway and Cree Nations in northern regions of Ontario signed a peace Treaty # 9, a treaty of co-existence with Canada and Ontario on behalf of the Queen of England. An adhesion to Treaty # 9 was signed in 1929. In 1875, the Saulteaux-Cree Nations of Manitoba, and what is now referred to as northern Ontario signed Treaty #5 with Canada. Those treaty First Nations within Ontario are part of Nishnawbe-Aski Nation (NAN). Grand Council Treaty # 9, a political territorial organization was established in 1973 to pursue the political governmental rights of the First Nations in northern Ontario. Prior to Grand Council Treaty # 9, the communities were politically represented by the parent organization known as Union of Ontario Indians. In 1977, the Chiefs issue the Declaration of Nishnawbe-Aski outlining their rights and claims to their homelands to Canada and Ontario. In 1981, Grand Council Treaty # 9 organization was replaced by Nishnawbe-Aski Nation representing 49 First Nations. Nishnawbe-Aski Nation covers about two thirds of the province of Ontario. The territory stretches across the north about seven hundreds miles in length and four hundred miles in width; from the Manitoba border on the west to the Quebec border on the east; from the Hudson’s and James Bay watersheds in the north to roughly the Canadian National Railway Line to the south. NAN land mass is equal to the size of France. Treaty # 9 territory encompasses certain parts of the districts of Cochrane, Timiskaming, Sudbury, Algoma, Thunder Bay and Sioux Lookout.
