It begins by first articulating Debwewin Journey as a wholistic way of knowing that involves both heart knowledge and mind knowledge working together. Through the Debwewin Journey way of knowing I have relied upon the methods of personal experience, a literature review, and introspection to complete a wholistic understanding of what was once merely heart knowledge. Through Debwewin Journey I have come to know that indeed historically the Algonquin Anishinaabe of the Ottawa River Valley made numerous attempts to resolve the Canadian governments' denial of Algonquin rights, and that presently through government practices and policies the Algonquin are merely negotiating a land claims settlement where their agency is confined to a small box. Through Debwewin Journey I have also come to know that Indigenous Nations must institute structures and processes of good governance prior to establishing jurisdiction; otherwise, our relationships with one another will continue to be undermined, the spirit of the wiindigo will prevail, and we will merely become complicit in our continued domination. Lastly, through Debwewin Journey I made the difficult decision to move away from this abomination. KEYWORDS Algonquin, Anishinaabe, Canada, Debwewin, Debwewin Journey, good governance, heart knowledge, Indigenous methodology, land claims, marginal insider analysis, self- government, treaty, wholistic. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Of course, first and foremost, it is my partner Nik where the biggest "Miigwetch" is much deserved. Although not always in the discursive, through my Debwewin Journey I now know it was and is your moral code that interests me. Miigwetch for your interest in my work, in Algonquin Anishinaabe culture, for sharing what you have learned with me, and for explaining things I could not and cannot perceive. While at its core, this endeavour has been a very lonely process, along this journey you have made me feel less alone. Miigwetch to Dr. Mark Dockstator, Dr. Don McCaskill, and Professor David Newhouse. Your comments and many critiques have served to make my work better. Miigwetch to Professor Herb Nabigon your suggestions have greatly improved my work. Miigwetch to Elders, language speakers, and traditional knowers Doug Williams, Shirley Williams, and William Commanda for being the kind teachers you are. I could not have completed this work without your guidance and wisdom. Miigwetch to fellow students; Heather Shpuniarsky, the late Dr. Sandi Warren, Mara Heiber, and Susan McBroom. Please know that sometimes you made the Ph.D. process a little more bearable. Miigwetch to Hillary Wear for both your kindness and for helping me find Bark Lake - traditional Algonquin territory where for the most part, I completed the writing of this dissertation. Miigwetch to the current and past Directors of the Doctoral Program in Indigenous Studies at Trent University: Dr. Paula Sherman and Dr. Lynne Davis. Miigwetch also to Brenda Maracle-O'Toole, Barb Rivet, Joanne Argue, and of course my friend Christine Welter. I would also like to say Miigwetch to Nancy M. Smith of the iii Disabilities Services Office at Trent University. Please know Nancy that I appreciate that you were always there for me through the non-sense of it all. Miigwetch to Melanie Buddie for your proof reading skills and Mary Ann Armstrong for your formatting advice. Miigwetch to Loretta Durst and Erin Davidson of the graduate Studies Office at Trent University. Please know that your kindness was much appreciated. Miigwetch also to John Bodnar for helping me pick my first university course. Your kindness and generosity was and is much appreciated! Miigwetch to Georgina Varga for reading earlier versions of my chapters, and for providing me with the perspective of a new Canadian. Miigwetch to the "Keepers of my Proposal" Joyce Clements, Helen Keller, and Collette Scale. A very big Miigwetch to Heather Majaury, Myrriah Majaury, Bob Majaury, Maureen Majaury and to all of your dogs for your kindness, generosity, and understanding. I am certain you are all Deer Clan. Know that I feel privileged and honoured to be considered a member of your family. In addition, I would like to say Miigwetch to my favourite professors Dr. Elizabeth Graham and Dr. Eva Mackey for their kindness, encouragement, and for being great role models. Miigwetch also to Dr. Michele Lacombe and Dr. John Milloy for your kindness, encouragement, and generosity. Miigwetch to MaryLouise Bat-Hayim (also BatHayim) of the Academic Writing Centre at York University. Please know MaryLouise that your kindness too has carried me far! Further, Miigwetch to Maurice Switzer for publishing many of my community articles in Anishinabek News and also for the kindness and generosity given. iv I also have to say Miigwetch to my many financial supporters: The Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Program, Casino Rama, the National Aboriginal Achievement Foundation, the United Steel Workers of America, the Quaker Oats Company of Canada Limited, Trent University's Office of Graduate Studies, Trent University's Indigneous Studies Department, Trent University's Indigenous Studies Graduate Program, the Morton Graduate Scholarship Fund, Patricia and David Morton, and the Helen McClain Whiteside Memorial Fund. Without this generosity I could not have undertaken this heart felt and much-required journey. v DEDICATION This work is dedicated to the homeless, poor, disabled, the gifted, and all others who have been denied their place due to inadequate and disenfranchising societal structures, colonial or otherwise. This work is also dedicated to once political prisoner Bob Lovelace. In February 2008, Bob was imprisoned in the Central East Correctional Centre in Lindsay, Ontario for four months simply for fulfilling his responsibilities to the natural world within the parameters of Algonquin law. I am truly humbled by Bob's dedication to my ancestors and to who I am as an Algonquin person. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS TITLE PAGE /i ABSTRACT AND KEYWORDS / ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS / iii DEDICATION / vi TABLE OF CONTENTS / vii LIST OF FIGURES AND TABLES / x LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS / xi GLOSSARY OF ANISHINAABE TERMS / xiii PROLOGUE / xv THE ANISHINAABE CREATION STORY / xv OPENING QUOTES / xvii CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION / 1 1.1 A Short Story About the Storyteller / 1 1.2 My Question and My Approach / 4 1.3 My Responsibilities / 6 1.4 My Experiential Context / 7 1.5 My Positionality / 9 1.6 Defining Major Concepts / 10 1.7 Chapter Frameworks / 14 1.8 My Gifts and Limitations / 18 CHAPTER 2 DEBWEWIN JOURNEY: A PROCESS AND MODEL OF KNOWING / 25 2.1 Debwewin and the Debwewin Journey Approach to Knowledge / 25 2.2 The First Circle: Heart Knowledge / 27 2.3 The Second Circle: Personal Experience / 29 2.4 The Second Circle: My Review of the Literature / 31 2.5 The Second Circle: Introspection /

  • Running Head: Redefining Education Through Anishinaabe Pedagogy
    RUNNING HEAD: REDEFINING EDUCATION THROUGH ANISHINAABE PEDAGOGY REDEFINING EDUCATION THROUGH ANISHINAABE PEDAGOGY: A JOURNEY TO CLARIFY HOW ABORIGINAL EDUCATION BROUGHT ME TO ANISHINAABE PEDAGOGY BY REBECCA CHARTRAND A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of MASTER OF EDUCATION Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning Faculty of Education University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2016 by Rebecca Chartrand REDEFINING EDUCATION THROUGH ANISHINAABE PEDAGOGY i ABSTRACT Using a bifocal, place conscious Anishinaabe-Western/Euro-Canadian lens, the evolution of Aboriginal education is examined from a personal and professional perspective. Meaning surfaces from the lived-experiences of the author, an Anishinaabe woman, educator, parent, community member and Aboriginal education specialist, and what continues to unfold at national, provincial and local levels as “Aboriginal education” with an emphasis on what is taking place in south central Manitoba. The thesis highlights the resurgence of Indigenous ways of knowing, teaching and learning, specifically Anishinaabe pedagogy, and identifies goals for education from an Anishinaabe lens that looks beyond academic success to pedagogical tools that can help restore wellness and well-being for all Canadians. Keywords: Aboriginal education, Anishinaabe pedagogy, Indigenous, First Nations, Me tis, Inuit REDEFINING EDUCATION THROUGH ANISHINAABE PEDAGOGY ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I dedicate this thesis to my daughter Syrena who has grown up a great deal since I began this thesis journey in 2007. Syrena I hope you find something nourishing within these pages that gives you strength, hope and a sense of place in the world as an Anishinaabe Me tis woman.

We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev.

We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

DESCRIPTORS *American Indian Culture; *Child Health; Children; *Community Programs; Cultural Influences; Family Life; Mental Health; *Mental Health Programs; Models; Program Descriptions ABSTRACT Reports show that mental health services for Indian children are inadequate, despite the fact that Indian children are known to have more serious mental health problems than all other ethnic groups in the United States. This monograph examines five American Indian children's mental health projects funded by the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS). These projects have developed extraordinarily creative and effective systems of care largely based in their own cultures and on the strengths of their families. The goal of this work is to examine promising practices that implement traditional American Indian helping and healing methods that are rooted in their culture.
