  • Indigenous Languages
    INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES PRE-TEACH/PRE-ACTIVITY Have students look at the Indigenous languages and/or language groups that are displayed on the map. Discuss where this data came from (the 2016 census) and what biases or problems this data may have, such as the fear of self-identifying based on historical reasons or current gaps in data. Take some time to look at how censuses are performed, who participates in them, and what they can learn from the data that is and is not collected. Refer to the online and poster map of Indigenous Languages in Canada featured in the 2017 November/December issue of Canadian Geographic, and explore how students feel about the number of speakers each language has and what the current data means for the people who speak each language. Additionally, look at the language families listed and the names of each language used by the federal government in collecting this data. Discuss with students why these may not be the correct names and how they can help in the reconciliation process by using the correct language names. LEARNING OUTCOMES: • Students will learn about the number and • Students will learn about the importance of diversity of languages and language groups language and the ties it has to culture. spoken by Indigenous Peoples in Canada. • Students will become engaged in learning a • Students will learn that Indigenous Peoples local Indigenous language. in Canada speak many languages and that some languages are endangered.

    ONE HUNDRED WORDS FOR CONQUEST ONE HUNDRED WORDS FOR CONQUEST: CURATING ARCTIC SOVEREIGNTY AT THE WINNIPEG ART GALLERY By MARGARET BOYCE, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Margaret Boyce, June 2019 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2019) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: One Hundred Words for Conquest: Curating Arctic Sovereignty at the Winnipeg Art Gallery AUTHOR: Margaret Boyce, B.A. (McMaster University), M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Amber Dean NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 264 ii LAY ABSTRACT In this dissertation, I look at a series of catalogues for Inuit art exhibitions held at the Winnipeg Art Gallery (WAG), spanning from 1967 to 2017. I argue that the discursive conventions of settler-Canadian art appreciation, especially those geared towards Inuit creative production, have resonances with the political strategies that Canada uses to prove effective occupation—a term from international law—of the Arctic. My research intervenes in this context by showing how art appreciation encourages modes of effective occupation that are not obviously political, insofar as these modes operate in the realm of affect. The resulting work models some strategies for critiquing forms of settler benevolence that are unique to the art world, and offers a template for how to approach exhibition catalogues as a genre—both of which are underdeveloped areas of scholarship. iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines a series of catalogues for Inuit art exhibitions held at the Winnipeg Art Gallery (WAG), spanning from 1967 to 2017.

    NOT THE MESSAGE BUT THE MESSENGERS Jim Logan 1993 Acrylique sur toile Peu après la diffusion de ma série sur la violence commise dans les pensionnats, intitulée A Requiem for Our Children, un projet de recherche qui m’a bouleversé profondément et pendant longtemps étant donné que la grande part de cet ouvrage-là a été puisée de mes entretiens avec les anciens élèves des pensionnats, j’ai peint ce tableau en guise de conclusion, d’une sorte d’apaisement personnel. Ce tableau ne vise pas tellement à réprouver les enseignements du Christ, mais davantage à blâmer ceux qui ont transmis son message, là où commence la rupture avec la bonté et la sainteté. Il y a eu de bonnes personnes qui se sont occupées des enfants là où des violences ont été commises sous le couvert Cheminement du Canada vers la vérité et la réconciliation la vérité vers Canada du Cheminement de la chrétienté. Il s’agit de l’un des événements les plus tragiques Réponse, responsabilité et renouveau responsabilité Réponse, au monde et, pourtant, on trouve très peu de renseignements à ce sujet dans l’histoire canadienne. Ce tableau fait partie de cette documentation qu’il faut continuer à enrichir. – Jim Logan 1959 - THE HEBRON RELOCATION Réponse, responsabilité et renouveau Heather Igloliorte 2002 Huile sur toile Cheminement du Canada vers la vérité et la réconciliation La réinstallation de 60 familles en 1959 par l’Église et l’État a eu des conséquences désastreuses sur ces personnes qui ont été relocalisées dans des collectivités situées dans le sud du Labrador.
