The purpose of this research is to understand how a Migmag First Nation on the Atlantic coast maintains food security. Elsipogtog has a population of 2,839 residents who reside on-reserve. This Migmag First Nation was historically self-sufficient and had a strong physical and cultural connection with food. The researcher used a phenomenological research method that included participant observation, unstructured interviews and a focus group to learn about food security in Elsipogtog. Data collection for this research took place from February 2006 until September 2006. This research attempts to capture the mechanisms that are currently used at the individual, family, and community levels in Elsipogtog First Nation to maintain food security. Specifically, the two main research questions are: 1. What are the individual, family and community strategies used to maintain food security? 2. What are the barriers to maintaining food security in Elsipogtog First Nation? The major findings of this research include the need to nurture to vitality the rich cultural relationship with food that the Migmag of this community have, the need to address environmental issues, the need to share knowledge and the need to support infrastructure to enhance community food security. 11 Reproduced with permission ot the copyright owner.

Acknowledgements When I first set out to complete graduate level research, my aspiration was to engage in research with one of the First Nations’ communities that I consider home. I also had a personal desire to develop more skills and knowledge in the area of food security and qualitative research. There are many people who have been supportive in many ways throughout this experience. It is important for me to acknowledge some key people but in no particular order: • The participants who trusted and shared their stories with me. • Dr. Connie H. Nelson for her support and encouragement to stay true to phenomenological research and experience this method of research as a learner. It was a privilege to have a supervisor who was challenging, yet provided guidance, support and real perspectives based on her experiences. • My parents — Adela and Franklin Levi for always being there for me. I know they sometimes felt like they were writing a thesis too. • My Advisory Committee in Elsipogtog First Nation — for sharing their stories and supporting the research idea. • Ariel Ann Lyons — for reading and editing this thesis and her support throughout course work while I was a distance education student. I would also like to acknowledge the Indigenous Health Research Development Program, an Aboriginal Capacity and Developmental Research Environment (ACADRE) - Centre of the Institute for Aboriginal Peoples Health Research, the National Aboriginal Achievement Foundation, The Chippewas of Nawash Post Secondary Unit and Ryerson's Centre for Studies in Food Security for providing financial and peer support. I would also like to acknowledge Elsipogtog Health and Wellness Centre for in-kind contributions. It is my wish that more youth from First Nations continue to pursue graduate degrees. This thesis has taken on a life of its own that I hope will extend beyond the final page. I am truly excited that I now have the opportunity to return the findings to the community of Elsipogtog and others who are interested in this important topic. I was fortunate to be the ‘gatherer of the information’. Thank-you,Che Megwetch, Oalalinl IV Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission.

    The Dispossession of the Míkmaq Indians from Chignecto to Elsipogtog1: A Case Study Analysis of the Health Determinants of the Physical Environment by Patrick J. Augustine A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Indigenous and Canadian Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2021, Patrick J. Augustine 1 The community uses the Pacifique orthography, while the Francis-Smith system spells it L’sipuktuk (Sable & Francis, 2012). Abstract Traditionally, the Míkmaq enjoyed an interconnected relationship with the land, harvesting what they needed from the earth and the ocean, guided by the concept of Netukulimk, the practice of sustainability. Upon the arrival of European settlers, new trade practices were introduced, and what was once plentiful was quickly depleted. Although the original inhabitants were assured that their lands would be protected by agreements and treaties, these assurances proved to be false, and the traditional relationship with the land was threatened, as the Míkmaq—presaging the fate of most Indigenous Peoples in Canada—were dispossessed of their historical lands and forced to live on reserves; many of them far away from the environments to which they had had biological and spiritual ties. Land is central to our understanding of current Indigenous health issues; centering around how the Míkmaq traditionally employed land and resources, what changes in that relationship were brought about by colonization, and how their removal to reserves influenced their relationship vis-à-vis their environment. In addressing the ways that land policies, post-first contact, were developed and implemented over time, it is possible and necessary to juxtapose that history with the story of the forced mobilization of the Míkmaq and examine the effects that the dispossession of land had upon their livelihood and economic activity.

    Antistasis, 9 (1) 256 Reflecting on Colonial Education Experiences: Sharing My Story David Perley Welcome to my sacred space! I am honoured that you have entered my lodge to hear my story. But before I share my story, I will cleanse my mind, body, and spirit. I will burn sweetgrass and guide the sacred smoke to my head, eyes, ears, mouth, heart, hands, and feet. I will guide the sacred smoke to my head so that my mind will have positive, respectful thoughts. I will guide the sacred smoke to my eyes so that I will always appreciate the beauty of creation. I will guide the sacred smoke to my ears so that I will hear the wonderful sounds of creation. I will guide the sacred smoke to my mouth so that the words I use will not hurt anyone and always speak the truth. I will guide the sacred smoke to my heart so that I will be caring, compassionate, and understanding to others. I will guide the sacred smoke to my hands so that they will not be used to physically hurt anyone. I will guide the sacred smoke to my feet so that I will always walk in beauty and respect our Mother Earth. I will guide the sacred smoke to the front of me in honour of all those who came before me, our Wolastoqi ancestors. I will guide the sacred smoke behind me in honour of all those who will come after me, our future generations. I will now share my story. Introduction Antistasis, 9 (1) 257 When I first reflected on my experiences at the Tobique Indian Day School and later in the provincial schools located in Perth and Andover, I thought that this would be an easy task.

  • 5 Traditional Land and Resource Use
    CA PDF Page 1 of 70 Energy East Project Part E: New Brunswick Volume 16: Socio-Economic Effects Assessment Section 5: Traditional Land and Resource Use This section was not updated in 2015. Figures referencing the Project description have been updated to reflect the removal of a marine terminal in Québec. However, the analysis of effects is still valid. This TLRU assessment is supported by Volume 25, which contains information gathered through TLRU studies completed by participating Aboriginal groups, oral traditional evidence and TLRU-specific results of Energy East’s aboriginal engagement program from April 19, 2014 to December 31, 2015. The list of First Nation and Métis communities and organizations engaged and reported on is undergoing constant revision throughout the discussions between Energy East and potentially affected Aboriginal groups. Information provided through these means relates to Project effects and cumulative effects on traditional land and resource use, and recommendations for mitigating effects, as identified by participating Aboriginal groups. The most relevant information for this section is Volume 25 for Woodlands ecoregion, which reviews additional TRLU information identifies proposed measures to mitigate potential effects of the Project on TRLU features, activities, or sites identified, as appropriate. The TLRU information provided in Volume 25 reflects Project design changes that occurred in 2015. 5 TRADITIONAL LAND AND RESOURCE USE Traditional land and resource use (TLRU)1 was selected as a valued component (VC) due to the potential for the Project to affect traditional activities, sites and resources identified by Aboriginal communities. Project Aboriginal engagement activities and the review of existing literature (see Appendix 5A.2) confirmed the potential for Project effects on TLRU.
