The foundation was incorporated in 1994 and was originally known as the Sioux Lookout District Health Foundation. The organization later changed its name to the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation to reflect the amalgamation of the two main Sioux Lookout District Health Centre sites, the 7th avenue site, formerly the Sioux Lookout Zone Hospital, and the 5th avenue site, formerly the Sioux Lookout General Hospital. Our purpose is to raise money to provide funding for medical equipment, education, special treatment programs and building funds for the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. Our motto, A Tradition of Caring…A Tradition of Sharing, defines us. It is what we do everyday with the ongoing support of our generous donors. Since our inception, and with our donors support, we have raised more than $5 million to enhance health care in the north. Our greatest achievements include raising $2.5 million for the local share of the new hospital project, more than $1.79 million with Wasaya Group Inc. for the CT Scanner Project, and more than $400,000 to ensure year round mammography services at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. The foundation is governed by a volunteer board of directors who oversee the foundation’s programs.

Thank you for your kind and generous donations that allow us to help so many, right here at home. Thank you for making our story The Story of the Year. 4 Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Wasaya Group Inc. CT Scanner Project Aside from the building of the new facility, the CT Scanner Project was by far the greatest fundraising effort to enhance health care in Sioux Lookout. On November 3, 2011 major donors and key fundraisers gathered to celebrate the completion of the project and the opening of the CT Room at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. The CT Scanner Project was inspired by the late Grace Teskey, who spoke with Tom Kamenawatamin, President & CEO of Wasaya Group Inc. and Stanley Sainnawap, First Nations Relations about her vision of having a CT Scanner based in Sioux Lookout. She believed the availability of a CT Scanner locally would help to save lives in the north. Wasaya Group Inc., Wasaya Airways, Wasaya WeeCheeWayWin Inc. and the chiefs of the Wasaya communities agreed, and on April 3, 2007 pledged a combined total of $505,000 to kick start the fundraising effort. Wasaya Group Inc. became the champions of the CT Scanner Project, sharing Grace’s vision and carrying her message to all communities, companies, organizations and individuals in Sioux Lookout, the surrounding communities and northern First Nations served by the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. The campaign was a grand success with all communities served by the health centre contributing to the project, either through individual donations or community pledges. In the last year of the campaign, Sandy Lake First Nation committed $100,000 in large part to honour five community members who fasted in 1988 to advocate for better health care in our communities, and Riley Barkman & Friends raised more than $235,000 during a walkathon from Sachigo Lake First Nation to Sioux Lookout. Never have we seen so many come together in support of a common goal. We have all been moved by the journey to bring CT services to Sioux Lookout and to improve healthcare in the north; moved to act, to participate, and to contribute to something greater than ourselves. We are forever grateful for Grace Teskey’s vision, for Tom and Stan and the Wasaya companies and communities for carrying Grace’s message, for all individuals, businesses, organizations and communities who made kind and generous donations to the CT Scanner Project, and for Riley Barkman & Friends for completing the journey and helping to make the vision of a CT Scanner in Sioux Lookout a reality. 5 Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation ANNUAL REPORT 2012 A Vision Becomes Reality RILEY BARKMAN - an exceptional young man who not only moved the people in his community but whole communities in his path as he walked over 700 kilometers to fulfill a woman’s vision. Riley created hope and inspiration by his passion to help. Riley’s “Helping to Make a Vision a Reality” Walkathon fulfilled the late Grace Teskey’s vision of having a CT Scanner based in Sioux Lookout by raising the remaining funds needed to purchase a CT Scanner for the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. Upon hearing Grace’s story and about the many people who died from illnesses where an early detection might have saved their lives, Riley made the decision to help with the fundraising effort. On March 28, 2011 Riley set out from Sachigo Lake First Nation for the more than 700km journey to Sioux Lookout. Seventeen days later and with fellow walkers Andrew Kaminawash, Stanley Barkman, Lawrence Morris and Matt O’Connell by his side, the team arrived at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre having raised more than $235,000 for the CT Scanner Project. We are forever grateful for Riley’s desire to make a difference. He inspired all of us to take part, to give, and to dream. He connected all of us through his journey, bringing us together to make the vision of a CT Scanner for the people of Sioux Lookout, the surrounding communities and northern First Nations a reality. Riley Barkman and his team arrive at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre April 13, 2012.

Many of our northern communities would have to charter planes to fly women to Sioux Lookout during this two week window. If there was inclement weather the planes would not fly and the opportunity for screening would be lost until the following year.

  • Phase 2 Connecting 17 Remote First Nation Communities NOTICE of COMPLETION and OPPORTUNITY to INSPECT the FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL S
    Phase 2 Connecting 17 Remote First Nation Communities NOTICE OF COMPLETION AND OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY REPORT The Project: Wataynikaneyap Power L.P. is a licensed transmission company majority owned by First Nations. The First Nations ownership interest is equally owned by 22 First Nation communities, and a minority interest in the partnership is owned by Fortis Inc. The Wataynikaneyap Transmission Project Phase 2 (the Project) includes approximately 1,500 km of 115 kV, 44 kV and 25 kV transmission lines and associated facilities for subsystems north of Pickle Lake and Red Lake that will connect 17 remote First Nation communities, currently powered by diesel generation, to the provincial electrical grid. Figure 1 (see reverse) identifies the Project location and transmission and alternative corridors. The Project has been identified as one of the priority projects in Ontario’s Long‐Term Energy Plan, and Wataynikaneyap has been selected as the designated transmitter to connect communities. Wataynikaneyap’s principal purpose is to provide safe, accessible and clean electrical power to remote First Nation communities and to decrease the reliance on diesel‐powered energy generation which, consequently, will provide environmental, economic, social, quality‐of‐life and health benefits. Environmental Assessment (EA) Process: The Project is subject to the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act and to Section 67 of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 for the portions of the transmission line on First Nation reserve lands. The Final Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the following Class EA processes: Class Environmental Assessment for Minor Transmission Facilities (Ontario Hydro, 1992) (for applicable 115 kV sections and associated infrastructure).
