The project goals are to gather information provided by provincial school divisions and First Nations education authorities that describe successful educational partnerships and strategies that support improved achievement for Métis, Inuit, and First Nations learners and to summarize this information into a report that can be disseminated to First Nations education authorities and provincial school divisions. BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW This document is a collaborative effort by school divisions and partners in Saskatchewan that was facilitated by Mr. Robert Bratvold, Director of Education, Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division, on behalf of the ESSP’s First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Student Engagement and Graduation Team. The Saskatchewan Educational Leadership Unit (SELU) provided support for the project. The main section of the document presents information provided directly from school divisions. Divisions utilized a template (Appendix A) to describe in a short summary their best, or evolving practices for enhancing education to improve First Nations, Métis, and Inuit student engagement and graduation rates. These summaries are alphabetically organized by school division for the reader’s convenience. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This work on partnerships flows from the Education Sector Strategic Plan and is one part of the outcome work focused on enhancing education systems to improve First Nations, Métis, and Inuit student engagement and graduation rates. The membership of the outcome team leading this work includes Robert Bratvold, Ken Okanee, Maureen Johns, Barry MacDougall, Brenda Vickers, Sandy Pinay- Schindler, Domenic Scuglia, Tim Caleval, Pat Bugler, Susan Nedelcov-Anderson, and Angella Pinay. The team expresses its appreciation to each of the school divisions and First Nations education authorities that submitted partnership summaries and to the individuals at the Saskatchewan Education Leadership Unit that together made this publication possible. 1 | P a g e SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIP TEMPLATES Name of Partnership Project & Partners Involved: Christ the Teacher Catholic Schools and the Society for the Involvement of Good Neighbours Intensive Integrated Services Partnership (IISP) Two to Three Word Descriptor/Category: Integrated Family Supports Description of Partnership Project: Vision Statement: A partnership that strengthens the well-being and safety of families using an integrated services delivery approach. The intensive integrated services model was enacted in 2012 by the Society for the Involvement of Good Neighbours (SIGN) with the hiring of a program manager, the securing of Ministry of Social Services funding, and the formation of an interagency partnership focusing specifically on supports for at-risk children, youth, and their families. This partnership has resulted in a continuum of services that includes: Respite child care Intensive in-home support programs A Community Care Team that supports the assessment of needs and a working together approach to find service solutions for children and their families Parenting programs for parent skill development and peer supports In-home family support programs In addition, the partnership collaboratively focuses to identify service gaps and the impact of these gaps on a per client basis. As such, initiatives such as parent education, front-line staff education, respite coordination, complex needs service coordination, and immediate risk management processes have evolved in our region through this partnership. The partnership meets as a management committee at least annually, but sub- committees of the partnership work formally together a minimum of every 3 weeks. The partners include Society for the Involvement of Good Neighbors (SIGN); Ministry of Social Services (MSS); Ministry of Education, Early Learning and Child Care (ELCC); SK Health Authority Yorkton – Primary Health and Mental Health and Addiction Services; KidsFirst Program Yorkton; Good Spirit School Division; Christ The Teacher Catholic School Division; Kamkids Daycare Inc.; Parkland Early Childhood Intervention Program (PECIP), and SaskAbilities. Outcomes of the Project Families achieve a community standard of safety and well-being while providing an environment suitable for children to remain in the family home The family unit is maintained, and the children/youth are no longer at risk of being placed in the care of MSS The community demonstrates increased opportunities and solutions to provide children and youth with what they need for optimal development 2 | P a g e Individuals and families participate in programs that support their development as healthy individuals, improve their futures, provide learning experiences and increase their opportunities to be involved positively in community supports and activities Individuals and families have improved access to community supports and services that increase their developmental opportunities and enhance quality of life Children, youth and their families identify and use a support system that relies less on intensive human services Parents have increased self-confidence in parenting skills and successfully use practiced positive parenting skills and strategies Parents have improved knowledge of child development and interact with their children in ways that enhance children’s development and early learning Families have opportunities to access respite services with qualified care providers managed by an agency within the partnership Protocol are developed and implemented for partnership

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. The monies were transferred to a suspense account pending the outcome of that litigation (the McArthur litigation). II.

The claim relates to the allegedly wrongful amalgamation of these three Bands, the beneficial ownership of oil-rich lands and an accounting for and payment of past and future profits and royalties from these lands. [3] The McArthur litigation involves, amongst other matters, entitlement to some $8 million of royalties held in White Bear’s account maintained by and with the Minister.

    FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP GSSD Believes That We Are All Accountable

    March/April 2021 FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP GSSD believes that we are all accountable. Board members, students, staff, families and community members have a responsibility, both individually and as part of the learning team, to participate and to contribute positively to public education. STUDENT & FAMILY INTERNAL PROCESSES PEOPLE CAPACITY FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP FINANCIAL CAPACITY PEOPLE PROCESSES INTERNAL FAMILY & STUDENT Long-term Goals • By June 30, 2021, GSSD will implement systemic and transparent approaches to find efficiencies and increase value for money allowing the division to respond to the challenges of student and staff needs. 2021-22 BUDGET Provincial Context Saskatchewan school divisions will receive $1.96 billion in operating funding for the 2021-22 school year which is a net increase of $21.9 million over last year. Though the increase appears to be significant, much of it will be used to offset the costs associated with the teachers’ collective bargaining agreement as well as other minor adjustments within the operating grant. What Does this Mean for GSSD? GSSD’s projected enrolment for September 2021 is set to be approximately 127.50 lower than the previous year. Enrolment numbers are established with the support of local in-school administrators, year over year (straight- line) projections, and a software package called Barager Demographics. Though we are expecting the grant revenues for GSSD to increase slightly ($375,000) for the upcoming school year, the division’s associated expenses have also increased at a much high
  • White Bear First Nations' Participation in World Wars

    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.

    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.
