  • On Don Cherry's Citizenship in the Six String Nation
    Why I’m revoking Don Cherry’s citizenship in the Six String Nation. The Six String Nation project was conceived in the divisive atmosphere of the lead up to the 1995 Quebec Referendum on sovereignty. Referenda are necessarily divisive. They take complex problems and cast them as simple choices, usually just between Yes or No. The media took its cues accordingly and the whole debate was framed as blue vs. red, Quebec vs. Ottawa, French vs. English. Even the responses of the rest of Canadians whom the referendum made mere bystanders could only be funnelled into the polarities of “Don’t Go” and “Good Riddance”. But how was that referendum supposed to account for the voices of indigenous people in Quebec, or francophones outside of Quebec or any of the thousands of other perspectives there are on what it is to be Canadian? Well, of course it wasn’t meant to. So the Six String Nation project was meant to invite those conversations by putting diverse histories and perspectives from different communities and cultures and characters into one object - a guitar - the very essence of which is to create harmony out of internal tensions. It would exist not only as an object that illustrated that complex truth but also as a living instrument through which those who played it and those who heard it could articulate those perspectives in their own way in their own place and time. Given my experience shepherding the project around the country and beyond, I can say that it has succeeded in doing just that in however small a way.

  • Exploring the Intersection of Culture and Education in Nunavik
    Journal of Comparative Social Work 2012/1 Exploring the Intersection of Culture and Education in Nunavik Nicole Ives, MSW, PhD McGill University School of Social Work Assistant Professor, McGill University, School of Social Work 3506 University Street, #309, Montreal, QC H3A 2A7 [email protected] Vandna Sinha, PhD McGill University School of Social Work Dominique Leman, MSW Anna Goren, BA Robert Levy-Powell, PhD Kativik School Board Wendy Thomson, PhD McGill University School of Social Work Exploring the Intersection of Culture and Education in Nunavik 1 Journal of Comparative Social Work 2012/1 Abstract: During the last century, Nunavik’s Inuit population has experienced social transformations which have manifested themselves in a range of social issues. Nunavik lies north of the 55th parallel in Quebec, Canada and is one of four regions in Canada that comprise Inuit Nunaat (Inuvialuit, Nunatsiavut, Nunavik, and Nunavut) – Inuit homeland. The Inuit are one of three distinct Indigenous groups in Canada as defined by the Constitution Act, 1982, with distinct cultural heritage and language. Community Capability and Development in Nunavik, a collaborative project between McGill School of Social Work researchers and an Advisory Committee composed of representatives from key Inuit institutions, explored social issues and community assets in Nunavik. This study sought to (a) provide a forum for community members to voice issues important to them; (b) inform policy development prior to the vote on regional government; and (c) increase the growth of community linkages that support research dissemination via a network of researchers, community members and organizations. This qualitative project involved 52 semi-structured, face-to-face interviews with members of five Nunavik communities.

Its preventive role is exercised in particular through its systemic analysis of situations that cause harm to a significant number of citizens.

The Nunavik Enrolment Office has among other duties to verse the lists provided by each community into the Nunavik Inuit Beneficiaries Register. Pursuant to the coming into force of the CA. 18, being on May 1st 2006, the rules of the Inuit Eligibility Regime were modified completely. The communities have now the responsibility to update their own community beneficiaries list via the work of their Community Enrolment Committee composed in Tasiujaq of one Elder and of the Directors of the local Landholding Corporation. The Tasiujaq Community Enrolment Committee applies its discretion in implementing the criteria listed at the C.A. 18, in order to take a decision on the application presented by an individual, or his/her legal representative for minors, under the guidance of the following principles: Nunavik Inuit are best able to define who is an Inuk and who is therefore entitled to be enrolled under the JBNQA, and; Nunavik Inuit are to be recognized according to their own understanding of themselves, of their culture and traditions; and; The determination and decision process of who is an Inuk for the purposes of the JBNQA is to be just and equitable.

    M E R I T O R I O U S S E R V I C E M E D A L C I V I L M S M Y - M S M - Civil July 2015 to January 2016 Updated: 20 July 2018 Pages: 43 Canada Gazettes: 04 July 2015 and 02 January 2016 (CG) Prepared by: John Blatherwick, CM, CStJ, OBC, MD, FRCP(C), LLD(Hon) =================================================================================================== In 2006 awards of the Meritorious Service Medal (civil) in Canada stopped. It was under review is the reply from Ottawa! In 2013, there were four Meritorious Service Cross (civil) awarded in Canada. No MSCs had not been given since 21 April 2005. It was an odd mixture - of the four MSCs, one already had an MSC (military) and would receive an Officer of the Order of Canada within a year (Chis Hadfield); one already had the Order of Canada (Clara Hughes) and one had died (Sarah Burke). The other was to the Mayor of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec. All were well deserved. And all looked very political. This then raises the question, will the MSM (civil) again be awarded or will this become a little used medal. In the past, Canadians who received Olympic gold medals received Meritorious Service Decorations but this stopped with the review. I know several of the MSM (civil) recipients and they are outstanding citizens, well deserving of their honour and they wear the honour proudly. Suddenly, in the Canada Gazette of 02 January 2016, a large number of MSC and MSM (civil) awards were announced. No other announcement about what the review found or request for nominations.
