Energy produced in northern Manitoba is carried south through an intricate web of transmission towers, lines and other facilities. The vast hydroelectric network throughout Manitoba cuts across many indigenous territories and the regions discussed within this study in northern Manitoba are the homelands of Ith-in-e-wuk (Cree peoples). The histories and timelines discussed as part of this study point to widespread and far-reaching implications and impacts related to energy production in northern Manitoba. A number of indigenous communities in northern Manitoba have experienced micro (individual) and macro (collective) impacts related to the production of hydro power and many Ith-in-e-wuk have experienced impacts on their lands, livelihoods and in their communities. Thus, many places, sites and histories have been greatly affected. This study aims to chart a chronology of hydroelectric energy production in northern Manitoba. It also seeks to inscribe a critical perspective concerning hydroelectric energy production in northern Manitoba and aims to carry forward the decolonizing traditions, ushered in by the Cree who became the Northern Flood Committee in the mid 1970’s. v Figures: Figure P.1: 2016 Wa Ni Ska Tan “Hydro Tour” Routes…………………………………. xix Figure P.2: 2016 Hydro Tour: Pictographs at Molson Lake……..………………………. 7 Figure P.3: 2 Mile Channel: View toward Lake Winnipeg..………………..……………. 9 Figure 3.1: Hydroelectric system in northern Manitoba……………………………….…. 63 Figure 3.2: Hydroelectric generating stations in northern Manitoba……………..………. 64 Figure 3.3: “Northern Manitoba Hydro-Electric Generation Project”……………………. 65 Figure 3.4: “Churchill River Diversion Project Location Plan”….………………………. 78 Figure 3.5: “Churchill River Diversion” project area….…………………………………. 79 Figure 3.6: “Lake Winnipeg Regulation Project – Location Plan” 1975…………………. 81 Figure 5.1: A view from the water: “footprints” near Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation……. 123 Figure 5.2: Close up view of the “footprints”………………………….…………………. 123 vi Tables: Table 3.1: List of generating Stations and/or control structures along Churchill River Diversion/Lake Winnipeg Regulation routes”…………………….……. 74 Table 4.1: Summary of types of provisions contained in the Northern Flood Agreement………………………………………………….……………….…. 94 Table 4.2: Summary of information related to Comprehensive Implementation Agreements...……………………………………………….………….………. 100 Table 4.3: Hydro related Settlement Agreements with non-NFA Aboriginal communities in Northern Manitoba Study Region...…….………………….…. 102 Table 4.4: Hydro related agreements specific to Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation…….…….107 vii Glossary of Cree terms: As-ki: typically translated as or denotes “the land;” “includes all living things such as the animals, the plants, the trees, the fish, the rivers, the lakes, and including the rocks.

Once you are grounded in the present and the past, you can move forward” (Dumas, 2013, Introduction). “To tell you this story I need to go back in time, back to memory” (Kovach,2009, p. 3). xi Nanaskoomowina Na-nas-ko-mo-wi-na derives from the Cree term “na-nas-ko-mo-win” which means “to be thankful” or “to give thanks.” Na-nas-ko-mo-wi-na, loosely translates as “to those who I give thanks” or “acknowledgement” and can be used as a way to express or denote one’s gratitude. It is important to begin this study by giving thanks and acknowledging the many ith-in-e- wuk from the study region described in this study, in northern Manitoba, who helped shape my ideas about the subject matter contained herein, who helped contribute to my critical thought processes and who, in their own ways, taught me about “being” Cree.

  • Appendix 1 What We Heard from Policy Communities
    Appendix 1 What we heard from policy communities Background In the Terms of Reference issued by the Minister of Conservation on September 1 2011, the Clean Environment Commission was asked to “hear evidence from Manitobans regarding the impacts of Lake Winnipeg regulation since the project was put into commercial use by Manitoba Hydro on August 1, 1976.” Over the period of approximately one month (January 12, 2015 to February 18, 2015), the Clean Environment Commission (CEC) attended 17 communities surrounding Lake Winnipeg.1 They also held two evening public sessions in Winnipeg and received a number of written submissions from the public.2 The CEC heard from many residents and users around the Lake including: cottage owners, permanent residents, Indigenous people, agricultural farmers, commercial and subsistence fishermen, and people and organizations from the tourism and recreation industry. There is disagreement in terms of the implications of Lake Winnipeg Regulation on Lake Winnipeg. Manitoba Hydro argues that its effects are generally either positive, benign or insignificant. Others take the position that LWR in conjunction with other Hydro activities has adverse and ongoing effect on the Lake. Among the prominent concerns are: • Lack of confidence in Manitoba Hydro, the Province and the CEC Hearing process on LWR • Lack of transparency of Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba Government operations of LWR • Lack of meaningful ongoing engagement • Sense of exclusion by upstream, downstream and Indigenous people • A sense that Manitoba hydro

The directory also serves as a means of improving communications among people. The idea for the directory arose from the desire to make information about Indigenous organizations more available to the public. This directory was first published in 1975 and has grown from 16 pages in the first edition to more than 100 pages in the current edition. The directory reflects the vitality and diversity of Indigenous cultural traditions, organizations, and enterprises. The editorial committee has made every effort to present accurate and up-to-date listings, with fax numbers, email addresses and websites included whenever possible. If you see any errors or omissions, or if you have updated information on any of the programs and services included in this directory, please call, fax or write to the Indigenous Relations, using the contact information on the
