Through our previous project funded under Status of Women Canada and other community engagement, we recognized a need for a safety plan and toolkit for women and girls traveling or relocating to Winnipeg as well as transitioning out of incarceration. Protecting Our Women is a project funded under Status of Women Canada and responds to the later community identified need. The project involves creating a Protecting Our Women Safety Plan and Toolkit to enhance the safety of Indigenous women and girls in Winnipeg. The goal of this needs assessment is to better understand how SCO can enhance the safety of all Indigenous women in Winnipeg through the development and implementation of a Protecting Our Women Safety Plan and Toolkit and by developing and strengthening relationships with First Nations communities and Winnipeg inner-city service providers. We reviewed academic and grey literature as well as conducted in depth consultation with First Nations communities, the Winnipeg inner-city Indigenous community and inner-city service providers. All parties agreed that a Safety Plan and Toolkit is needed and many Frist Nations communities and service providers have partnered with us to develop and implement the Safety Plan and Toolkit. Our key findings include: 1) the importance of safety education and awareness of inner-city services and resources before women or youth travel or relocate to Winnipeg; 2) the importance of accessing support systems when relocating to Winnipeg; 3) the need to cater to the specific needs of different groups of Indigenous women and girls as well as partnering service providers; 4) the existing networks of information sharing and service provision and; 5) the complexity of violence against Indigenous women and girls as a deeply rooted systemic issue of which the Protecting Our Women Safety Plan and Toolkit is only a part of the solution. We will honour the voices and experiences of those who shared with us and who continue to share with us as we develop and implement the Protecting Our Women Safety Plan and Toolkit and also in our future work. 5 Acknowledgements Several Groups and Individuals have been instrumental in the development of the Protecting Our Women Project.

From 1980 to 2014, Statistics Canada reported that 1,073 Indigenous women were murdered and that from 2001 to 2014, Indigenous women were six times more likely to be murdered than non-Indigenous women (Statistics Canada, 2015). However, these numbers are likely much higher and have been criticised by Amnesty International as they do not include missing persons, do not include unresolved suspicious deaths and because Aboriginal identity has been inadequately recorded (Amnesty International, 2015). The Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC) has conducted their own research to more adequately and appropriately represent the missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (MMIWG) in Canada in which Manitoba has the third highest number of cases where 64% of known cases occurred in urban areas, particularly in Winnipeg (NWAC, 2010). Through a previous project funded under Status of Women Canada called, the Family Violence and Resource Project, Southern Chiefs’ Organization (SCO) has become increasingly aware of the vulnerability to violence that Indigenous women and girls experience who reside in Winnipeg or who travel or relocate to Winnipeg as well as those transitioning out of incarceration into city living. We have consistently heard throughout our work involving, community safety planning for eight First Nation communities, communication with urban stakeholders and involvement with family members of MMIWG as well as through our participation at the National Roundtable on MMIWG held in February, 2015, that there is an immediate need to develop and implement a safety plan and toolkit for Indigenous women and girls to support their safety in Winnipeg. This safety plan and toolkit would increase Indigenous women and girls’ knowledge of how to stay safe in Winnipeg and would also include the services and resources in Winnipeg that support the safety and well being of Indigenous women and girls. SCO’s mission is to protect, preserve, promote, and enhance First Nations peoples’ inherent rights, languages, customs, and traditions through the application and implementation of the spirit and intent of the Treaty-making process. In that, SCO is committed to ending violence against women and has responded to the above community need through the Protecting Our Women initiative. Protecting Our Women is a three year project funded under Status of Women Canada. The project involves working in partnership with member First Nations and community stakeholders to develop a community based safety plan and tool kit for Indigenous women and girls moving to or residing in Winnipeg as well as transitioning out of incarceration. Over the last year, we have engaged with member First Nations, the Winnipeg inner-city community and Winnipeg inner-city service providers to better understand how the tool should be developed and implemented to best meet the needs of Indigenous women and girls. The following needs assessment report outlines and discusses our findings. 7 Needs Assessment Goal & Objectives Goal To better understand how SCO can enhance the safety of all Indigenous women in Winnipeg through the development and implementation of a Protecting Our Women Safety Plan and Toolkit and by developing and strengthening

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Research Council (CEARC) held several regional workshops across Canada to foster discussion on northern and Aboriginal understandings of environmental health issues. Many broad recommendations emerged: ∗ the health of a community should be understood before a development project is underway; ∗ the impacts of an existing industrial site on a community over time should be understood by actually studying whether there is industry-related diseases (such as cancer or lung problems) developing in that community; ∗ a communication approach that provides scientific information on contaminants to northern communities should be developed; ∗ a constructive and respectful way of understanding what northerners consider to be a danger to their health should be developed. This study is a critical response to these recommendations. It examines the cultural basis of risk perception and the importance of local knowledge in changing the assessment and management of health risks.

  • Section M: Community Support
    Section M: Community Support Page 251 of 653 Community Support Health Canada’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services has developed the Children’s Services Reference Chart for general information on what types of health services are available in the First Nations’ communities. Colour coding was used to indicate where similar services might be accessible from the various community programs. A legend that explains each of the colours /categories can be found in the centre of chart. By using the chart’s colour coding system, resource teachers may be able to contact the communities’ agencies and begin to open new lines of communication in order to create opportunities for cost sharing for special needs services with the schools. However, it needs to be noted that not all First Nations’ communities offer the depth or variety of the services described due to many factors (i.e., budgets). Unfortunately, there are times when special needs services are required but cannot be accessed for reasons beyond the school and community. It is then that resource teachers should contact Manitoba’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services to ask for direction and assistance in resolving the issue. Manitoba’s Regional Advisor, Children’s Special Services, First Nations and Inuit Health Programs is Mary L. Brown.

  • Understanding Food Sovereignty Within the Context of Skownan
    Presence, Practice, Resistance, Resurgence: Understanding Food Sovereignty Within the Context of Skownan Anishinaabek First Nation by Maximilian Aulinger A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Native Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2015 by Maximilian Aulinger Abstract One of the defining characteristics of early European colonial endeavours within the Americas is the discursive practice through which Indigenous peoples were transformed into ideological subjects whose proprietary rights and powers to be self- determining were subordinated to those of settler peoples. In this thesis, it is argued that a similar process of misrepresentation and disenfranchisement occurs when it is suggested that the material and financial poverty plaguing many rural First Nations can be eradicated through their direct and extensive involvement in natural resource extraction industries based on capital driven market economies. As is shown by the author’s participatory research conducted with members of Skownan Anishinaabek First Nation involved in local food production practices, the key to overcoming cycles of dependency is not simply the monetary benefit engendered by economic development projects. Rather it is the degree to which community members recognize their own nationhood oriented value systems and governance principles within the formation and management of these initiatives. The thesis concludes with an examination of one such community led enterprise in Skownan, which ultimately coincides with the political aims of the Indigenous food sovereignty movement. i Acknowledgements The completion of this thesis would not have been possible without the unwavering support of numerous individuals.
