    CMPS Annual Business Meeting Minutes, 1954-2018 1954 February 20: Colorado A & M College, Ft. Collins, Colorado. As Part of the Foresters’ Days Program, Lee Yeager, Regional Representative, Region IV, called a meeting at 2:00 p.m. to discuss The Wildlife Society and its objectives. After remarks on Society news and activities, discussion was opened on the question “Should we organize a Section or other formal body of Wildlife Society members for all or a part of Region IV?” Taking part in this discussion were Lee Yeager, J. V. K. Wagar, Art Eustis, Dr. Sooter, Dr. E. Kalmbach, Johnson Neff, Ralph Hill, Jim Grasse, Reed Fautin, John Scott, Richard Beidleman, Harold Steinhoff, and C. E. Till. Smoky Till moved that “we form a definite organization for Region IV with a President, Vice-President, and Secretary/Treasurer to perfect the organization.” Twenty-three voted for and 1 voted against this motion. Society members thus formally approved the Central Mountains and Plains Section. Harold Steinhoff was acting Secretary. October 28: Lee Yeager, Region IV Representative, in an annual report to TWS members in the region, mentioned that “Region IV is too big…we are in the process of organizing a Section composed of the Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming membership,” and that “other Sections in the region might be beneficial to the Society and our profession.” During the fall of the year, an election of officers was held. 1955 January 26: One hundred six (106) votes were counted for the election of officers and the results were reported to the Regional Representative.

  • Guide Des Collectivités Des Premières Nations
    Guide des Collectivités des Premières nations Région du Manitoba 2012-2013 Premières nations du Manitoba En mars 2012, le Manitoba comptait 140,975 membres inscrits des Premières nations, dont 84,874 membres (60,2 p. cent) habitent dans les réserves. Ce pourcentage place le Manitoba au deuxième rang derrière l’Ontario au chapitre du nombre total de personnes vivant dans les réserves et de la population autochtone totale à l’échelle provinciale. Le rapport intitulé Population indienne inscrite selon le sexe et la résidence 2012 confirme que 84,303 (59,8 p. cent) des membres des Premières nations au Manitoba sont âgés de moins de 30 ans. Au Manitoba il y a 63 Premières nations, parmi lesquelles on retrouve 6 des 20 plus importantes bandes indiennes au Canada. On note aussi que 23 Premières nations ne disposent pas de route d’accès praticable en tout temps. Ce dilemme touche plus de la moitié de tous les membres des Premières nations qui vivent dans les réserves. Il existe cinq groupes linguistiques au sein des Premières nations du Manitoba: cri, ojibway, dakota, oji-cri et déné. À l’exception de cinq Premières nations du Manitoba - sioux Birdtail, Sioux Valley, Canupawakpa, Dakota Tipi et Dakota Plains - qui ne sont signataires d’aucun traité avec le Canada, celui-ci a signé sept traités, soit les traités nos 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, avec toutes les autres Premières nations de la province. Les Premières nations du Manitoba sont représentées par trois organismes politiques provinciaux répartis selon un axe nord-sud. Principale organisation politique, l’Assemblée des chefs du Manitoba représente 59 chefs du Manitoba.

Along with five other provinces, Manitoba is retaining the same number of seats (14) that it had before
