Management’s responsibility for the consolidated financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the Member of Grant Thornton International Ltd 2 reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kativik Regional Government as at December 31, 2014 and the results of its operations, the variation of its net financial assets (net debt) and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards. Emphasis of matter Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to the fact that Kativik Regional Government includes certain information in its consolidated financial statements that is not required under Canadian public sector accounting standards. This information, prepared in accordance with the model prescribed by the Ministère des Affaires municipales et de l’Occupation du territoire, is presented on pages 9 and 10 and relates to the determination of the surplus (deficit) for the year for fiscal purposes.

  • Exploring Whapmagoostui Cree Place Names
    The Land as an Aspect of Cree History: Exploring Whapmagoostui Cree Place Names DAVID DENTON Cree Regional Authority, Nemaska, Quebec The Whapmagoostui Crees form a small-scale society that has used the same land for many generations. In this paper1 I will examine the results of a project carried out in the 1990s to compile information concerning historical and cultural knowledge relating to places within the Whapma­ goostui Cree traditional territories. The project involved both a detailed place-names survey and the collection of additional information in the form of stories, myths and land-use data concerning particular named places. Toponymy was seen as a useful starting point for understanding Cree perceptions of the environment and of key points within that envi­ ronment, and for obtaining a broad coverage of places of potential cul­ tural and historic interest, based on the assumption that most such places would be named (cf. Hanks & Winters 1986:274). The place-names survey was carried out with 1:50,000 scale maps using a modified version of the "Nuna-Top method," developed by Ludger and Linna Muller-Wille in arctic Quebec and Nunavut (CPCGN 1992). The team consisted of an interviewer, a recorder and a filing clerk, all Crees from Whapmagoostui with considerable knowledge of local geography and traditions. Interviews were carried out with individuals recognized in the community as likely to be most knowledgeable for dif- 1. Editors' note: This paper was presented at the 37e Congres des Algonquinistes held at the Mus6e Canadien des Civilisations in Gatineau, Quebec in October of 2005 but unac­ countably lost between computers during the editorial process.

  • January 10Th, 2021
    January 10th, 2021 Message from Leadership • Unfortunately, there were two “super spreader” events related to social gatherings in the Ouje-Bougoumou, Chibougamau, Mistissini area which has resulted in 30 confirmed cases, with 13 among residents of Ouje-Bougoumou and 10 among residents of Mistissini so far. There is reason to be hopeful that with the incredible contact tracing efforts of the Cree Health Board, the leadership of local governments in implementing restrictions and controlling gatherings and most importantly the cooperation of youth and community members in coming forward in contact tracing that we will be able to contain these cases very quickly. • More than 200 people are part of the contact tracing exercise and many are testing negative which demonstrates that the Cree Health Board Contact Tracing teams are finding the ends of the transmission chains. Recent events are a demonstration to everyone on how one lapse in judgement can have an impact on so many in our communities. Although two elders have been infected by these events there is a reason to be hopeful as severe symptoms have been very limited thus far. Let us pray that it stays this way in the coming days. • The Cree Health Board has made a great achievement by administering more than 1,000 doses in less than 5 days. This a demonstration that the Cree Nation is ready for the doses to begin vaccination in all communities, which are expected to arrive as early as the 14th, of January, 2021. January 10th, 2021 Travelling With the “Lockdown” measures that were announced by the Government of Quebec closing all non-essential services outside Eeyou Istchee this week, there is NO reason for people to be traveling outside of a Cree community for non-essential purposes.

  • New Bus Line Service Chisasibi – Val-D'or
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEW BUS LINE SERVICE CHISASIBI – VAL-D’OR Chisasibi and Val-d’Or, Wednesday, 2016 June first - Chisasibi Business Development Group (CBDG) and Autobus Maheux are pleased to announce their new partnership which is for the establishment of a regular bus service in the territory of James Bay with routes to and from Chisasibi and Val-d’Or. This bus service will be offered twice a week and will serve the community of Chisasibi and all Cree communities of James Bay territory, with a bus stop at each intersection on the James Bay highway connecting each Cree community. The Cree population is growing and year after year the travel needs are becoming more important. The needs are related to health, education, and recreational purposes. This new bus service will provide the communities with a new option for their transport which will be regular, reliable, safe and affordable. FIRST DEPARTURE FROM VAL-D’OR: JUNE 8th, 2016 AT 8:00 AM FIRST DEPARTURE FROM CHISASIBI: JUNE 9th, 2016 AT 8:00 AM A need was expressed for many years The idea of setting up a transport bus service was initiated several years ago. Approximately 15 years ago, the five coastal communities had a meeting with Autobus Maheux to discuss the potential bus project. Furthermore, a feasibility study was conducted in 2009 without any real results for the establishment of the service. However, during the Economic Mission in September 2015 which was organized by the Secretariat to the Cree Nation Abitibi-Témiscamingue Economic Alliance, a meeting was held between CBDG and Autobus Maheux.

    CA9700382 -3- Archean crustal evolution in the central Minto block, northern Quebec T. Skulski1, J.A. Percival1, and R.A. Stern1 Skulski, T., Percival, J.A., and Stern, R.A., 1996: Archean crustal evolution in the central Minto block, northern Quebec; m Radiogenic Age and Isotopic Studies: Report 9; Geological Survey of Canada, Current Research 1995 -F, p. 17-31. Abstract: The central Minto block contains three volcano-sedimentary successions. Near Lake Qalluviartuuq, an isotopically primitive (2-83 GaeNd +3.8 to +2.3) 2.83 Ga volcano-plutonic sequence comprises depleted tholeiitic basalts, anorthositic gabbro, and diorite-granodiorite that is unconformably 2 76 Ga overlain by <2.77 Ga conglomerates. Overlying the conglomerate is a more evolved ( - £Nd +1.8) calc-alkaline sequence of pillow basalts, andesites, and peridotite cut by 2.73 Ga diorite. To the west, and in inferred tectonic contact, the sediment-dominated Kogaluc sequence includes both isotopically evolved 276 Ga calc-alkaline rocks ( £Nd +1-6 to -0.1) including <2.76 Ga rhyolitic tuff, pillowed andesites, and 276Ga 2.76 Ga quartz-feldspar porphyry, and less abundant, depleted tholeiitic basalts ( £Nd +24). These are interlain with sedimentary rocks including banded iron-formation, quartzite, and metagreywacke. Calc- 2 78 Ga alkaline batholiths include 2.78 Ga pyroxene-bearing intermediate and felsic plutons ( - eNd <+2.7) and younger, peraluminous tonalites (eN(l <+1.3). Late, 2.73 Ga peraluminous granitoids are isotopically 2J25Ga evolved ( eNd -1.6). Resume : La partie centrale du bloc de Minto contient trois successions volcano-se'dimentaires. Pres du 2 83 Ga lac Qalluviartuuq, une sequence volcano-plutonique isotopiquement primitive ( - £Nd+3,8 a +2,3) de 2,83 Ga comprend des basaltes tholeiitiques appauvris, du gabbro anorthositique et un melange de diorite et de granodiorite, laquelle sequence est recouverte en discordance de conglomerats de < 2,77 Ga.
