In the 1600’s some of these horses escaped and became the wild mustangs that flourished on the grasslands of the Great Plains. By the 1700’s the Indians of the Great Plains adapted the horse to their cultures and became some the world’s greatest horse- people. Horse trading and stealing became a common practice among Indian tribes.

Portugal was assigned Africa, parts of eastern Catholic Theologians Asia, the East Indies and debate whether Indians what is now Brazil. are humans (Why does it matters?) Spain was assigned the Americas, except that area of present day Brazil, and the Philippines. A typical scene if trade and or treaty making among English colonial governments and American Indians. The Quakers (Protestant Christians) were especially committed to dealing in good faith with Indian tribes. Most early treaties were made with the primary purpose to secure peace (alliances). Tribal Sovereignty is the inherent right or power to govern. The colonial and later the U.S. Government recognized the sovereign status of the tribes. However, under the concept of the doctrine of discovery Europeans claimed dominion John Eckohawk over all the territories of the new world, which lessen the degree of sovereignty of tribes. Today tribal sovereignty means: 1) Indian tribes possess inherent governmental power over all internal affairs; 2) The states are precluded from interfering with the tribes in their self-government; and 3) Congress has plenary power to limit tribal sovereignty (based on a US Supreme Court interpretation) Lone Wolf v. Hitchcock (1903) The introduction of alcohol in the later years of the fur trade era caused havoc among the Anishinabe and other tribes. Painting by Peter Rindisbacher Painting by Peter Rindisbacher Inside a Metis Lodge/Tipi This was painted by Peter Rindisbacher in the 1820's in the Red River area. It shows a man with a whip dressed in a blue capote elaborated decorated with multicolored ribbons, an assumption sash, red trousers with ornamented cuffs, garters below the knees, mitts joined by a red string and a type of head covering (either a cap or a toque). The sled dogs were decorated for the wedding party. Each dog is dressed with a blanket decorated with beads, ribbon, pom-poms and bells . The cariole (sled) is made of buckskin and leather. This was a party travelling between Winnipeg and St. Paul, MN. 1.

What to do about the Indian tribes who have a different historical origin than all others who came to the Americas? Indians are an oddity, dilemma, a problem…because they don’t fit into the creeds (dogma) of the United States. Throughout United States history political leaders have pondered on what to do about Indians. This dilemma is played out in laws, executive orders, judicial acts and other governmental and cultural practices as Federal- Indian policy. From this point on the TMBC history will be tied to federal Indian policy. Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776) All men and created equal….

  • Norway House
    Norway House Economic Opportunity and The Rise of Community 1825-1844 James McKillip Norway House Economic Opportunity and The Rise of Community 1825-1844 James McKillip Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the PhD in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © James McKillip, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 ABSTRACT This dissertation argues that the Hudson’s Bay Company depot that was built at Norway House beginning in 1825 created economic opportunities that were sufficiently strong to draw Aboriginal people to the site in such numbers that, within a decade of its establishment, the post was the locus of a thriving community. This was in spite of the lack of any significant trade in furs, in spite of the absence of an existing Aboriginal community on which to expand and in spite of the very small number of Hudson’s Bay Company personnel assigned to the post on a permanent basis. Although economic factors were not the only reason for the development of Norway House as a community, these factors were almost certainly primus inter pares of the various influences in that development. This study also offers a new framework for the conception and construction of community based on documenting day-to-day activities that were themselves behavioural reflections of intentionality and choice. Interpretation of these behaviours is possible by combining a variety of approaches and methodologies, some qualitative and some quantitative. By closely counting and analyzing data in archival records that were collected by fur trade agents in the course of their normal duties, it is possible to measure the importance of various activities such as construction, fishing and hunting.

Native people, who lived in these spaces where the Europeans travelled and settled, saw the world through their own eyes. But what did these groups see? This paper discusses changing representations of lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulves­ cens), noting differences in the stories and images presented by Native and non-Native people. Les discussions sur les paysages du Nord de l'Ontario et du Manitoba retrouvees dans les anciens recits des marchands de I'epoque decrivent un pays riche en ressources naturelles. Les peuples autochtones qui vivaient dans ces grands espaces, visites et colonises par les Europeens, percevaient ce pays bien differemment. Ce texte presente les perceptions changeantes de I'esturgeon des lacs tout en notant les differences entre les images et les contes crees par les autochtones et ceux crees par les blancs. The Canadian Joumal ofNative Studies XVIII, 2(1998):203-232. 204 Christopher Hannibal-Paci Introduction Doctoral research into Cree, Ojibwe and scientific knowledge of lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) in the Lake Winnipeg basin has led to the present study ofsturgeon representations.1 Lake sturgeon is one of seven species of sturgeon, five of which can be found in North America, has always been important to the Native peoples who shared the fish's original range.

  • Contemporary Metis Visual Culture and Identity Jessie Short, BA Global
    All of My Blood is Red: Contemporary Metis Visual Culture and Identity Jessie Short, BA Global Studies Social Justice and Equity Studies Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts . Faculty of Social Sciences, Brock University St Catharines, Ontario © 2011 Abstract This thesis explores notions of contemporary Metis identity through the lens of visual culture, as articulated in the works of three visual artists of Metis ancestry. I discuss the complexities of being Metis with reference to specific art works by Christi Belcourt, David Garneau and Rosalie Favell. In addition to a visual culture analysis of these three Metis artists, I supplement my discussion of Metis identity with a selection of autoethnographic explorations of my identity as a Metis woman through out this thesis. The self-reflexive aspect of this work documents the ways in which my understanding of myself as a Metis woman have been deepened and reworked in the process of conducting this research, while also offering an expanded conception of contemporary Metis culture. I present this work as an important point of departure for giving a greater presence to contemporary Metis visual culture across Canada: Acknowledgements This work is dedicated to all of those wonderful and inspiring people in my life who have played such an integral part in this journey, whether or not they are aware of their impact. Thank you with all of my heart Ray and Taira, Chantel, Kelsey and Zack and my grandparents.

While its social prestige endured and its members such as the von Müller, von Bachmann, and von Hauser con- tinued to use their titles of nobility, their economic base, that is highly paid officer positions in foreign military service, had disappeared.
