In accordance with the National Energy Board’s process and schedule outlined in Hearing Order OH-002-2015, the following information makes up Enbridge’s written reply evidence. The following sections are responsive to the written evidence of: A. Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs; B. Beaver Lake Cree Nation, Ermineskin Cree Nation, Ocean Man First Nation, Sweetgrass First Nation and Siksika Nation #430; C. Ochapowace First Nation; D. George Gordon First Nation; E. Keeseekoose First Nation; F. Manitoba Metis Federation; G. Michel First Nation; H. Pasqua First Nation; I. Samson Cree Nation; and J. Whitebear First Nations. 2. Enbridge has not provided direct responses to the written evidence filed by Asini Wachi Nehiyawak (Mountain Cree), Kahkewistahaw First Nation, Moosomin First Nation, Peguis First Nation, Piikani First Nation, Pine Creek First Nation, Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation, Southern Chiefs Organization, Stoney Nakoda Nation, or the Treaty 2 Territorial Alliance. 3. The Board should not take Enbridge's silence in response to certain statements contained within the intervener written evidence as agreement. Enbridge continues to rely on its filings in relation to the Project as they relate to the facts and issues addressed therein and has endeavored not to repeat those submissions here. 4. Canupawakpa Dakota Nation did not file written evidence, but it did file a letter with the NEB dated September 30, 2015. That letter confirmed that Enbridge had provided funding to Canupawakpa Dakota Nation for a traditional knowledge study which Canupawakpa Dakota Nation intended to file. Though Enbridge has not provided written reply evidence that is specifically responsive to Canupawakpa Dakota Nation’s letter, Enbridge has provided written reply evidence in Sections F, J and elsewhere that is responsive to First Nations, like Canupawakpa Dakota Nation, that are conducting traditional knowledge or traditional land and resource use studies. 5. Frog Lake First Nation filed written evidence on June 29, 2015 that was attached to its Enbridge Pipeline Inc. Reply Evidence of Enbridge Pipelines Inc. Application for the Line 3 Replacement Program Filed November 27, 2015 OH-002-2015 File OF-Fac-Oil-E101-2014-11 02 Page 5 of 62 late Application to Participate. Enbridge has not replied to Frog Lake First Nation’s evidence directly because Enbridge was provided with a letter from Joe Dion of Frog Lake Energy Resources Corp. dated November 6, 2015 advising that Frog Lake First Nation will not continue as an intervener, though portions of Enbridge’s written reply evidence are nevertheless generally responsive to the content of Frog Lake First Nation’s evidence.

REPLY EVIDENCE A. ASSEMBLY OF MANITOBA CHIEFS (i) A Critical Analysis of the L3RP Engagement Process: 1. The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (“AMC”) filed a report by Dr. James Robson and Dr. Patricia Fitzpatrick, titled A Critical Analysis of the L3RP Engagement Process (the “Report”). The Report critiques Enbridge’s public and Aboriginal engagement with respect to the Line 3 Replacement Program (“L3RP” or the “Project”). 2. Enbridge agrees that Aboriginal engagement is a key component of environmental assessments and regulatory processes in general. Enbridge therefore engages with Aboriginal groups from the early regulatory stages of a project through to operations in accordance with its Aboriginal and Native American Policy. 3. Though the Report draws numerous conclusions about Enbridge’s engagement, those conclusions, respectfully, are based on an inadequate review of the record, false assumptions and analogies, and methodological shortcomings. Enbridge has therefore not replied to the Report in a point-counterpoint format, but instead proffers the following about the

  • White Bear First Nations' Participation in World Wars
    boundaries eh; just a territory which was Sioux or Cree and you couldn’t go west because the Blackfoot were controlling the foothills and mountain areas. That’s my understanding (WBFNs Elder George Sparvier, 2012). That was the Riel Rebellion. The paranoia of the soldiers and the people; they sent them down here. Grandfather was registered in Turtle Mountain. (During the Riel Rebellion) They didn’t want them to get involved in the Riel Rebellion (WBFNs Elder Almer Standingready, 2012). Especially the young men. So a number of them went down (to Turtle Mountain) (WBFNs Elder Phyllis Gibson, 2012) Upon the end of this rebellion, the Government of Canada convicted 19 Métis and 33 natives of offenses related to the uprising. Ironically, only a few Métis were hanged but Canadians witnessed a mass hanging of non-Métis native people who participated in the rebellion. Cree Chiefs Big Bear, Poundmaker, and One Arrow were each found guilty of treason-felony, and sentenced to three years in Stoney Mountain Penitentiary. A fourth Chief, the Dakota leader White Cap, was acquitted of charges despite being a member of Riel’s Exovedate9 Council (Canadian Encyclopedia, 2012). After the Northwest/ Riel Rebellion the Government instituted a series of repressive policies against the indigenous peoples. These measures, which went against the spirit of the treaties, included forcible confinement to Reserves, the dismantling of aboriginal culture and the removal of children to residential schools for assimilation (Stonechild, 2007). These measures were in stark contrast to the results of the first resistance in Manitoba and had deep and lasting effects upon indigenous peoples in Canada including the White Bear First Nations, despite the fact that White Bear did not participate in the Rebellion.

  • Figure 8: Treaty 4 Adhesion-Original Moose Mountain Reserves
    the year before gave their adhesion to the Treaty. Those signing included: Wah-pee- makwa; The White Bear; Okanes; Payepot; Le Coup de Pheasant (Pheasant Rump); and Kitchi-kah-me-win (Ocean Man). Although the Reserve of the Chief Wahpemakwas (White Bear) descendants was geographically located in the western regions of Treaty 2, White Bear signed the Treaty 4 adhesion in 1875, and accepted a Reserve on the southeast flank of the Moose Mountains in 1877. This Reserve was established for the use and benefit of both the Nuh kaw e and Cree Bands living in the region. While White Bears Cree and Saulteaux members did explore some agricultural activities after the establishment of this Reserve, they preferred and continued to follow their traditional lifestyle of hunting, fishing, trapping and gathering on the Reserve and throughout the area (Thompson, C., 2006) Due to pressures for farmland at the turn of the 20th century, land speculators pressured Canada to force the surrender of the Pheasant Rump #68 and the Ocean Man #69 First Nation Reserves in the nearby Moose Mountains. In 1901, a total of 47,100 acres of land were surrendered to Canada and the members of Pheasant Rump and Ocean Man were moved to the White Bear Reserve. The amalgamation in 1901 intensified the association of the languages and cultures of the different tribal affiliations. Recently Pheasant Rump and Ocean Man have successfully regained independent reserves however White Bear still retains many family association and cultural effects of the forced amalgamation.
