  • Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and Their Program Choices
    Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Program Choices by Pamela Williamson A dissertation submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Higher Education Graduate Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Pamela Williamson (2011) Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Post-Secondary Program Choices Doctor of Higher Education 2011 Pamela Williamson Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract The exploratory study focused on First Nation students and First Nation education counsellors within Ontario. Using an interpretative approach, the research sought to determine the relevance of the counsellors as a potentially influencing factor in the students‘ post-secondary program choices. The ability of First Nation education counsellors to be influential is a consequence of their role since they administer Post- Secondary Student Support Program (PSSSP) funding. A report evaluating the program completed by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in 2005 found that many First Nation students would not have been able to achieve post-secondary educational levels without PSSSP support. Eight self-selected First Nation Education counsellors and twenty-nine First Nation post- secondary students participated in paper surveys, and five students and one counsellor agreed to complete a follow-up interview. The quantitative and qualitative results revealed differences in the perceptions of the two survey groups as to whether First Nation education counsellors influenced students‘ post-secondary program choices.

  • Improving Community Housing, an Important Determinant of Health Through Mechanical and Electrical Training Programs
    IMPROVING COMMUNITY HOUSING, AN IMPORTANT DETERMINANT OF HEALTH THROUGH MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL TRAINING PROGRAMS Leonard J.S. Tsuji Guy Iannucci Department of Environment Fort Albany First Nation and and Resource Studies RTllnc. University of Waterloo Fort Albany, Ontario Waterloo, Ontario Canada, POL 1HO Canada, N2L 3G1 Anthony Iannucci Fort Albany First Nation and RTllnc. Fort Albany, Ontario Canada, POL 1HO Abstract I Resume Until recently, "status quo" houses (Le., dwellings with no running water, washrooms, proper kitchens, or adequate electrical services) were typically built in First Nations (FN). We describe a training program that upgraded existing status quo homes in Fort Albany First Nation to a level comparable to the rest of Canada, on a limited budget. The program provided not only an educational experience for the stUdents, but also paid employment for Fort Albany First Nation members, as well as long-term community benefits. Jusqu'a, a present, les maisons "statu quo", (c.a.d.les habitations sans eau courante, sans toilettes, sans cuisines appropriees et sans electricite adequate), ont ete typiquement construites dans Ie Premiere Nations. Nous decrivons un programme de formation qui, avec un budget limite, a permis d'ameliorer les maisons "statu quo" dans les Premieres Nations, Fort Albany, a un niveau comparable au reste du Canada. Ce programme a non seulement fourni une experience educative aux etudiants, mais a egale­ ment cree des emplois remuneres aux membres des Premieres Nations, Fort Albany et a demontre des avantages a long terme pourla communaute.

  • Cat Lake First Nation Housing Crisis
    March 6, 2019 The Hon. Seamus O’Regan Minister of Indigenous Services House of Commons Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6 Dear Minister O’Regan, Like most Canadians, the members of the Canadian Paediatric Society (CPS) were shocked and saddened to learn about the health and housing crisis in Cat Lake First Nation, which prompted a call for emergency assistance last month. The physical illnesses experienced by the children and families of Cat Lake First Nation, including respiratory and skin problems, are the visible consequences of poor housing. Such conditions are both preventable and unacceptable in our resource-rich country. They also have both immediate and long- term health consequences, including compromising children’s mental, developmental and social health. Inadequate housing has been linked with an increased risk for asthma, injury, and exposure to health hazards. Overcrowding is associated with a wider and faster spread of communicable diseases, such as lower respiratory tract infections and gastroenteritis. Children and youth living in crowded housing conditions also experience more mental health difficulties and problems in schools. We commend your swift action and commitment to invest in housing for Cat Lake as outlined in your interim framework agreement with First Nations leaders, including Cat Lake Chief Matthew Keewaykapow. However, we believe this agreement does not go nearly far enough. Like all children in Canada, the children of Cat Lake have a right to healthy home environments where they can live, play, and grow. The consequences of failing to meet this basic need are both acute and chronic, and will affect their current health and future life chances.

  • The 2009 H1N1 Health Sector Pandemic Response in Remote and Isolated First Nation Communities of Sub-Arctic Ontario, Canada
    The 2009 H1N1 Health Sector Pandemic Response in Remote and Isolated First Nation Communities of Sub-Arctic Ontario, Canada by Nadia A. Charania A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Environment and Resource Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2011 © Nadia A. Charania 2011 AUTHOR’S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization declared a global influenza pandemic due to a novel influenza A virus subtype of H1N1. Public health emergencies, such as an influenza pandemic, can potentially impact disadvantaged populations disproportionately due to underlying social factors. Canada‟s First Nation population was severely impacted by the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic. Most First Nation communities suffer from poor living conditions, impoverished lifestyles, lack of access to adequate health care, and uncoordinated health care delivery. Also, there are vulnerable populations who suffer from co-morbidities who are at a greater risk of falling ill. Moreover, First Nation communities that are geographically remote (nearest service center with year-round road access is located over 350 kilometers away) and isolated (only accessible by planes year-round) face additional challenges. For example, transportation of supplies and resources may be limited, especially during extreme weather conditions. Therefore, remote and isolated First Nation communities face unique challenges which must be addressed by policy planners in order to mitigate the injustice that may occur during a public health emergency.

  • Cat Lake First Nation Booshoo
    2018 - 2019 WELCOME TO Cat Lake First Nation booshoo 1 Cat Lake Nation First Dear Teachers, Welcome to Cat Lake First Nation! We are very happy that you have decided to come and teach in our community. Cat Lake is a proud Ojibway community, located, as you might have guessed from the name, on the edge of a lake. The land around us is beautiful. You will have the opportunity to explore its beauty during your time with us, both during school hours and in your free time. We are very proud of our new school. Since its opening, students have come back and shown a renewed interest for their education. We hope you will fuel this interest by teaching dynamic classes and also investing yourself outside of classes, organising extracurricular activities that will bring students to discover new interests and talents. We hope you will settle in well to the community. Take the time to get to know people inside and outside of the school, and you will start to feel at home. If you have any problems, please speak to your principal, who will help you try to resolve these issues. We ask that you not go to the band council with your problems, but rather follow the correct protocol by talking to the education leadership. Your students, colleagues, and neighbours look forward to meeting you and getting to know you! Marie Stewart Education Director Cat Lake First Nation 2 Community The First Nation calls itself Bizhiw-zaaga’iganiwininiwag meaning “Men of Wild-cat Lake” or as Bizhiw- zaaga’iganiing Nitam Anishinaabeg meaning “The First Nation at Wild-cat Lake,” where wild-cat refers to the Canada lynx.

  • Wataynikaneyap Power
    Issue 1, November 2019 Wataynikaneyap Power The Environmental Assessment (EA) approvals for Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Wataynikaneyap Power Project were received in Summer 2019. Since this time, the Project has been following-up with additional technical studies and submitting environmental permits to the appropriate authorities for approval. Most of these permits, including those from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) and the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) are in place. The Environmental Team is actively working with identified Aboriginal communities and stakeholders to address Conditions of Approvals (CoA) for these authorizations. A summary of Project activities will be provided to identified Aboriginal communities and government agencies 15-days in advance of any proposed work. This overview will be updated and available on the project website every three months throughout the course of the Project construction. The update will include an outline of Project construction activities that are planned to occur during the following three months, including a list of potential environmental features, considerations and permit applications expected to be submitted. Wataynikaneyap PM and Opiikapawiin Services LP (OSLP) are working together with Aboriginal Communities and qualified contractors to complete several environmental monitoring programs as outlined in the EA. Along with Contractor’s compliance monitoring activities, Wataynikaneyap Power will also conduct audits of Project activities to ensure ongoing compliance with EA and engagement commitments and various other requirements. Results of monitoring activities will be made available through an Annual Compliance Report (ACR) posted to the Wataynikaneyap Environmental Webpage.
