It has been well documented that even in the CMAs where census data is available, it often significantly underestimates the true size of the Aboriginal Regina Qu’Appelle Health Region population.

  • Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction a Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada
    Targeted Residential Fire Risk Reduction A Summary of At-Risk Aboriginal Areas in Canada Len Garis, Sarah Hughan, Paul Maxim, and Alex Tyakoff October 2016 Executive Summary Despite the steady reduction in rates of fire that have been witnessed in Canada in recent years, ongoing research has demonstrated that there continue to be striking inequalities in the way in which fire risk is distributed through society. It is well-established that residential dwelling fires are not distributed evenly through society, but that certain sectors in Canada experience disproportionate numbers of incidents. Oftentimes, it is the most vulnerable segments of society who face the greatest risk of fire and can least afford the personal and property damage it incurs. Fire risks are accentuated when property owners or occupiers fail to install and maintain fire and life safety devices such smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors in their homes. These life saving devices are proven to be highly effective, inexpensive to obtain and, in most cases, Canadian fire services will install them for free. A key component of driving down residential fire rates in Canadian cities, towns, hamlets and villages is the identification of communities where fire risk is greatest. Using the internationally recognized Home Safe methodology described in this study, the following Aboriginal and Non- Aboriginal communities in provinces and territories across Canada are determined to be at heightened risk of residential fire. These communities would benefit from a targeted smoke alarm give-away program and public education campaign to reduce the risk of residential fires and ensure the safety and well-being of all Canadian citizens.

  • Calling to Justice, 1St Annual Conference for Change
    Calling to Justice, 1st Annual Conference for Change Presented by the Saskatchewan First Nations Women’s Commission MARCH 24-25-26, 2021 CALLING TO JUSTICE, 1ST ANNUAL CONFERENCE FOR CHANGE This March 24-26, the Saskatchewan First Nations Women’s Commission presents the first annual We Rise Conference, dedicated to advancing a regional action plan for change. In 2007, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) moved to enshrine the rights that “constitute the minimum standards for the survival, dignity and well-being of the indigenous peoples of the world.” In 2015, the Truth & Reconciliation Commission released 94 Calls to Action to redress the legacy of residential schools and advance reconciliation. Four years later, Reclaiming Power and Place: the Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls called for transformative legal and social changes to resolve the crisis that has devastated Indigenous communities across the country. Many First Nations people in Saskatchewan have shared their insight and experiences to build a better world for future generations. This three-day conference acknowledges our part in advocating for change, and that of our allies, and reflects on what we’ve accomplished so far, helping us to move forward to the next steps, together. A Red Eagle Lodge event, all associated proceeds from We Rise will be directed toward front-line programs and services for First Nations women, the keepers of the home fire, and devote resources to strategic goals including the advancement of Women’s Rights and Sovereignty. ONLINE DELIVERY: Due to COVID-19 restrictions, We Rise will be delivered in an online format through Webinar Ninja.
