Patrick University of Saskatchewan, [email protected] Recommended Citation Baijius W., & Patrick, R. J.(2019). Planning around reserves: Probing the inclusion of First Nations in Saskatchewan's watershed planning framework. The International Indigenous Policy Journal, 10(5). doi: https://10.18584/iipj.2019.10.5.8502 Planning Around Reserves: Probing the Inclusion of First Nations in Saskatchewan's Watershed Planning Framework Abstract Watershed-based planning in Saskatchewan began in earnest after 2006 under the auspices of the Saskatchewan Watershed Authority. Within a decade, a dozen watershed plans were produced following a planning framework that included technical and watershed resident committees. First Nation communities, or "reserves," exist within these watershed areas. This article probes the inclusion of First Nations in those plans. Using document analysis and keyword search, our analysis explores any spatial relationship that may exist between First Nation inclusion and the amount of reserve land in a watershed. The results of this research show that First Nation inclusion is limited in watershed planning in Saskatchewan. We see opportunity for more effective watershed planning through greater collaboration with First Nations.

Minister’s Message From the grasslands in the southwest to the Taiga Shield lakes of the north, we in Saskatchewan are blessed with richly diverse ecosystems. Over the past few decades, we have come to understand more about the nature of these ecosystems, and how we rely on them to support our economy and our overall quality of life. We have also increased our understanding of the responsibility we bear to assess, protect and improve our province’s environmental health, in balance with our social and economic priorities, for the good of present and future generations. We face a number of challenges regarding our water’s quality and availability. It is up to Saskatchewan people to determine how we will meet these challenges. The Saskatchewan government has taken a leadership role in assessing, protecting and managing our source waters by addressing them at the watershed level. The State of the Watershed Reporting Framework represents a critical step in understanding our relationship with Saskatchewan’s watersheds, as well as our role as stewards of our environment. For the first time in Saskatchewan, this framework will integrate the information collected by numerous provincial and federal agencies and present it in an easily understandable, technically sound report- card format.

  • Articles Treaties and Tuberculosis: First Nations People in Late 19Th
    CBofMH v23 no2-v5.qx 11/13/06 2:45 PM Page 307 Articles Treaties and Tuberculosis: First Nations People in late 19th-Century Western Canada, a Political and Economic Transformation J. W. DASCHUK PAUL HACKETT SCOTT MACNEIL Abstract. This paper examines the explosion of tuberculosis infections among First Nations communities of western Canada during the critical period from Canada’s acquisition of the Northwest to the early 1880s. In the early 1870s, the disease was relatively rare among the indigenous population of the plains. Within a few years, the situation changed dramatically. By the early 1880s, TB was widely recognized to be the primary cause of morbidity and mortality among First Nations populations. Rather than direct infection from the bur- geoning European population in the region, the explosion of the disease was caused by sudden ecological, economic, and political changes in the west that were primarily the result of the imposition of Canadian hegemony. Résumé. Cet article étudie l’explosion du nombre de cas de tuberculose dans les communautés des Premières nations de l’Ouest canadien pendant la période-clé allant de l’acquisition du Nord-ouest par le Canada jusqu’au début des années 1880. Au début des années 1870, la maladie est assez rare chez la population autochtone des plaines. En quelques années, la situation change de façon spec- taculaire. Au début des années 1880, la tuberculose est largement reconnue comme la cause première de l’état maladif et de la mortalité parmi la population autochtone. Il ne s’agit pas d’une infection directe par la population européenne de la région, population en pleine croissance, mais plutôt de la conséquence de J.

  • September 1, 1905 Saskatchewan Becomes a Province
    September 1, 1905 Saskatchewan Becomes a Province Saskatchewan is one of the Prairie Provinces of the Dominion of Canada, and it is the only province in Canada whose boundaries are not formed by natural features. It is known as Canada’s Breadbasket and is a major wheat-growing area of North America. Saskatchewan has more farmland than any other province. Along with the many grains raised in Saskatchewan, it is also known for the large number of beef cattle raised there. There are also many major oil fields and deposits of uranium in Saskatchewan. There is much natural beauty for tourists to see. The northern part of the province has beautiful forests and lakes. A few of the many famous people from Saskatchewan include Gordon Howe, Philip Kives, Art Linkletter, and Arnie Boldt. Look at the map of Saskatchewan below. Label the capital of Saskatchewan. Locate the cities of Saskatoon, Regina, Prince Albert, Moose Jaw, Swift Current, Yorkton, North Battleford, Weyburn, Veregin, Buffalo Narrows, Uranium City, and Eldorado, and label them on the map. Now label the Cypress Hills. Also, locate the Saskatchewan River, Assiniboine River, Churchill River, Qu’Appelle River, Old Wives Lake, Quill Lake, Last Mountain Lake, Lake Athabasca, Reindeer Lake, Lake Wollaston, La Ronge Lake, Cree Lake, and Little Manitou Lake, and label them. Lastly, label the provinces, states, or bodies of water that border Saskatchewan.

A watershed or drainage basin is a region that drains a particular body of water, such as a river, pond, lake or ocean. The area of land encompassed could be tiny or it could be immense. The size of a watershed, and the speed and direction of the flow of its rivers, is determined by land forms. High ground, such as mountain ranges and hills, form the boundaries between watersheds, and to a large degree they also direct the path and speed of rivers.

  • Bibliography on the Limnology and Fisheries of Canadian Freshwaters
    BIBLIOGRAPHY ON THE LIMNOLOGY AND FISHERIES OF CANADIAN FRESHWATERS. N0.2(REVISED). by H.F.NICHOLSON Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory, Canada Centre for Inland Waters, 867 Lakeshore Road, Burlington, Ontario. L7R 4A6 1982 PREFACE This is a revised edition of Bibliography No.2, published in 1975 as Environm. Can., Fish.Mar.Serv., Techn.Rept., (504). Due to budget restrictions and the high cost of printing, combined with an expanding distribution list, it is no longer possible to publish this series as Technical Reports. Instead, each number will be issued in this present looseleaf form as an unpublished report of the Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory. Please note that those from outside Canada requesting copies of this series will be sent the Reference Indexes only, unless otherwise requested. This issue can be referenced as:- Nicholson, H.F. 1982. "Bibliography on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. No.2(revised)". Can.Dept.Fish.Oceans, Pacific & Freshw.Fish., Great Lakes Biolimnol.Lab., Unpubl.Rept. FORMAT The bibliography is divided into two sections:- (1). Reference Index Each of these references contains information on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. They are numbered and appear in num~rical order. This enumeration is consecutive and continuous through the bibliography series. (2). Freshwater Feature Index This section is divided into alphabetical order of provinces and within each province the freshwater feature names are in alphabetical order. The coordinates (in minutes and degrees, latitude and longitude) are given for each feature except for British Columbia where, for the most part, the quadrilateral indexing system is used. Apart from French names, it is usual for the specific name to precede the generic name, as in Elliot Lake, but in a few cases the reverse is true, such as Lake Nipissing, in which case the latter will appear as Nipissing, Lake, with a comma after the-specific name.
