Addictions in general stood out as the cause of many social & health ills. In Regina there are an estimated 2500 people who inject drugs. The Needle Exchange Programs in the city distributed 1.1 million needles in 2001 & 2002. We can only hope that this keeps the numbers ofnew IllV & Hepatitis C infections down, but what is happening to help stop this practice (injecting)?, how are we assisting individuals to live healthier lives? The conference was well attended by individuals from across Canada, with a high number of Aboriginal delegates and youth. There was an obvious need for information, knowledge and debate about the many issues facing us all. The conference was able to provide this. However, as mentioned the conference was not able to provide many solutions. Page 2 II.

INTRODUCTION [1] The matter under judicial review is the Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada’s (Minister) decision to withhold two-thirds of monies under dispute in protracted litigation before this Court involving some of the parties to this judicial review.

  • White Bear First Nations' Participation in World Wars
    boundaries eh; just a territory which was Sioux or Cree and you couldn’t go west because the Blackfoot were controlling the foothills and mountain areas. That’s my understanding (WBFNs Elder George Sparvier, 2012). That was the Riel Rebellion. The paranoia of the soldiers and the people; they sent them down here. Grandfather was registered in Turtle Mountain. (During the Riel Rebellion) They didn’t want them to get involved in the Riel Rebellion (WBFNs Elder Almer Standingready, 2012). Especially the young men. So a number of them went down (to Turtle Mountain) (WBFNs Elder Phyllis Gibson, 2012) Upon the end of this rebellion, the Government of Canada convicted 19 Métis and 33 natives of offenses related to the uprising. Ironically, only a few Métis were hanged but Canadians witnessed a mass hanging of non-Métis native people who participated in the rebellion. Cree Chiefs Big Bear, Poundmaker, and One Arrow were each found guilty of treason-felony, and sentenced to three years in Stoney Mountain Penitentiary. A fourth Chief, the Dakota leader White Cap, was acquitted of charges despite being a member of Riel’s Exovedate9 Council (Canadian Encyclopedia, 2012). After the Northwest/ Riel Rebellion the Government instituted a series of repressive policies against the indigenous peoples. These measures, which went against the spirit of the treaties, included forcible confinement to Reserves, the dismantling of aboriginal culture and the removal of children to residential schools for assimilation (Stonechild, 2007). These measures were in stark contrast to the results of the first resistance in Manitoba and had deep and lasting effects upon indigenous peoples in Canada including the White Bear First Nations, despite the fact that White Bear did not participate in the Rebellion.

  • Figure 8: Treaty 4 Adhesion-Original Moose Mountain Reserves
    the year before gave their adhesion to the Treaty. Those signing included: Wah-pee- makwa; The White Bear; Okanes; Payepot; Le Coup de Pheasant (Pheasant Rump); and Kitchi-kah-me-win (Ocean Man). Although the Reserve of the Chief Wahpemakwas (White Bear) descendants was geographically located in the western regions of Treaty 2, White Bear signed the Treaty 4 adhesion in 1875, and accepted a Reserve on the southeast flank of the Moose Mountains in 1877. This Reserve was established for the use and benefit of both the Nuh kaw e and Cree Bands living in the region. While White Bears Cree and Saulteaux members did explore some agricultural activities after the establishment of this Reserve, they preferred and continued to follow their traditional lifestyle of hunting, fishing, trapping and gathering on the Reserve and throughout the area (Thompson, C., 2006) Due to pressures for farmland at the turn of the 20th century, land speculators pressured Canada to force the surrender of the Pheasant Rump #68 and the Ocean Man #69 First Nation Reserves in the nearby Moose Mountains. In 1901, a total of 47,100 acres of land were surrendered to Canada and the members of Pheasant Rump and Ocean Man were moved to the White Bear Reserve. The amalgamation in 1901 intensified the association of the languages and cultures of the different tribal affiliations. Recently Pheasant Rump and Ocean Man have successfully regained independent reserves however White Bear still retains many family association and cultural effects of the forced amalgamation.

  • It Is Well Documented That Many Dakota People Migrated Northward
    It is well documented that many Dakota people migrated northward into Canada immediately following the Minnesota Massacres of 1862.14 Many of these people settled in Manitoba and possibly further west. As a plains people they were tied to the buffalo harvest and implicated in the geopolitical struggles of not only the Minnesota Massacre, but also the Cypress Hills Massacre; the War of the Little Big Horn and the aftermath; as well as the Métis Rebellions. These events either included White Bear members or had direct effects upon the White Bear First Nations. The traditional land use, livelihood, and culture of the White Bear First Nations were dramatically changed by the pressures introduced by the European colonization of both Canada and the USA. As a Plains people, the importance of the land to the survival of the White Bear First Nations, and ultimately, to their language and culture cannot be underestimated. The next part of this book briefly outlines the traditional culture and language of these people and how their entire livelihood was intertwined with their use of the land and their harvesting practices. 14 The Minnesota Massacre of 1862 is also known as the Dakota War of 1862; the Sioux Uprising; the Dakota Uprising; the Sioux Outbreak; and Little Crow's War (Dollman, Darla S., 2012). 55 Chapter 4 – PLAINS CULTURE Although the White Bear First Nations camped in the Moose Mountains, the Assiniboine, Cree and Dakota peoples had originally come from or adopted what would be considered a plains cultural livelihood. A plains culture was based primarily on harvesting buffalo or bison and other animals which roamed throughout the prairies until the early 1880s.

  • Stars Air Ambulance
    STARS AIR AMBULANCE Prepared for To lift one takes the hands of many, to save a life takes the support of our entire community. Who We Are STARS is an emergency medical service that provides transportation and critical care services to patients who might not otherwise have access to timely, vital care. We reach remote worksites and secluded rural areas, and even assist with transport to major medical centres when community hospitals don’t have the tools, equipment or expertise to handle cases of severe illness or trauma. STARS averages 8 missions every day throughout Western Canada, and last year we flew 884 missions in Saskatchewan that is over 2 times a day. We respond where we’re needed most — that means vehicle collisions, medical emergencies, traumatic events, or even industrial, workplace, or agriculture related incidents. Communities being there for the next patient We know this is a challenging time for many as we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic. At STARS, we remain committed to the health and safety of all our staff and allies, and of course, our patients. At the beginning of 2020, STARS embarked on a Municipal Campaign to bring awareness to towns, villages and cities; and engage in any questions there may be. This proved to be successful as many are now supporting our mission of saving lives. When a life is on the line, everyone has a role to play. STARS works in partnership with a chain of survival partners including first responders like 911, police/RCMP, fire, and hospital staff. We train with your crews of paramedics, nurses, and first responders to provide hands on experience and best practices.
