  • Report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples
    • immovable heritage such as burial sites, village sites or campsites, sacred landscapes or ritual and ceremonial sites; • movable heritage such as archaeological artifacts, video, film, photographs, sound recordings and field notes; and • intangible heritage such as oral history and legends, toponymy (place names), personal or spiritual relationship with the land and sites. We are concerned mainly with the first category, which involves the physical location of Aboriginal sites on Crown land — although the third is also relevant to the protection of Aboriginal sites. Issues of archaeological, ethnological, ethnographic or cultural research — and the ownership of the resulting research materials — are sensitive matters to Aboriginal peoples and the academic community and must be dealt with appropriately. At the beginning of the Commission’s mandate, we developed our own ethical guidelines for research, which we offer as a potential model for drafting future policy and legislation (see Volume 5, Appendix C). Recommendations The Commission recommends that 2.4.58 Federal, provincial and territorial governments enact legislation to establish a process aimed at recognizing (a) Aboriginal peoples as the owners of cultural sites, archaeological resources, religious and spiritual objects, and sacred and burial sites located within their traditional territories; (b) Aboriginal people as having sole jurisdiction over sacred, ceremonial, spiritual and burial sites within their traditional territories, whether these sites are located on unoccupied Crown land or on occupied Crown lands (such as on lands under forest tenure or parks); (c) Aboriginal people as having at least shared jurisdiction over all other sites (such as historical camps or villages, fur trade posts or fishing stations); and (d) Aboriginal people as being entitled to issue permits and levy (or share in) the fees charged for access to, or use of, such sites.

  • Harry M. Sanders Truth and Reconciliation Notes for Ward 9
    HARRY M. SANDERS TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION NOTES FOR WARD 9 1. Introduction In 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC) released its final report, titled Honouring the Truth, Reconciling for the Future. The commission and its report ​ ​ addressed the damaging legacy of the residential school system and the policy behind it, which the report described as “cultural genocide.” At that time, City Council directed the Calgary Aboriginal Urban Affairs Committee to craft a response, which was published in 2016 as White Goose Flying: A Report to Calgary City Council on the Indian Residential School ​ Truth and Reconciliation—Calls to Action. In this context, Ward 9 Councillor Gian-Carlo ​ Carra concluded that a local-level response from his ward office would also be appropriate. Notably, Ward 9 includes the former site of the Calgary Indian Industrial School, an Anglican residential school that operated between 1896 and 1907. One of its students was Jack White Goose Flying (ca. 1878–1899), a Peigan teenager who died at the school and was the only student to be buried on its campus. The White Goose Flying ​ report was named for him. Councillor Carra tasked the author with examining evidence and reporting on the known associations of indigenous peoples with the area that comprises Ward 9. Using archival and published sources, archaeological reports, original research in newspaper accounts, and consultation with archaeologist Brian Vivian (a senior partner with Lifeways of Canada), the author has identified some of those associations, which have been categorized as follows: ● Indigenous peoples’ occupation/use of the land before contact/settlement (addressed below through archaeological evidence) ● Associations, including those of Métis people, following non-indigenous settlement/development (addressed below through written historical evidence and published sources) ● Names applied to natural features, built structures, neighbourhoods, etc.

Thank you for all of your love and support in every step I have taken on this journey. I love you Nana. Abstract This thesis explores my emergent processes of identifying as a Métis person through autoethnographic narratives. I provide an overview of Métis history, identification, and decolonization, especially written by and for Aboriginal peoples. Using a decolonizing framework of Indigenous métissage (Donald, 2012) – which brings together complex, and nuanced influences to build knowledge – and an autoethnographic methodology, I explore cultural knowledges through critical self-reflection. I collected autoethnographic data in the form of personal journals and family artifacts; additionally, I shared conversations with other Métis peoples, which I used to further inform my own processes of identification and decolonization. The study results are presented as narrative vignettes, offering conclusions about: a) cultural ambivalence; b) privilege; c) language and music reclamation; and d) building relationships with both people and land. This research builds upon literature by, about, and for the benefit of Aboriginal peoples and settlers and offers considerations relevant to decolonization and identification. Keywords: Métis, Decolonization, Identity, Autoethnography, Métissage i Acknowledgements I would like to thank the Haudenosaunee, Nêhiyâw, Siksikaitsitapi, Siksika, Iyarhe Nakoda and Métis peoples for their generosity in hosting me on their traditional and contemporary territories while I pursued this endeavour.

  • Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada at the Crown-First Nations Gathering 24 January 2012 Ottawa, Ontario
    Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada at the Crown-First Nations Gathering 24 January 2012 Ottawa, Ontario “Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen, it is indeed a pleasure to welcome you on the traditional territory of the Algonquin, to this historic Crown-First Nations Gathering. And it is especially appropriate to do so in this building, a building whose name honours the memory of a prime minister who cared deeply about the things we are gathered here to talk about today: respect, rights and opportunity for First Nations Canadians. “John George Diefenbaker was, in many ways, the initiator of the modern era of Crown – First Nations relations. It was he who named the first First Nations member to the Parliament of Canada, Senator James Gladstone in 1958. And, it was he who, two years later, extended to aboriginal Canadians living on reserves the right to vote in national elections. “In addressing that long-standing and fundamental injustice, he was a man ahead of his time and in many ways, an apt inspiration for today’s proceedings. “Greetings to all participating here in Ottawa and across the country: His Excellency, Governor General Johnston and Mrs. Johnston, Minister Duncan, Secretary Rickford, Senators and Members of Parliament from our Caucus. All distinguished guests, Elders, chiefs, including Chief Weasel Head, and Peter Standing Alone from my home nation, The Blood First Nation of Southern Alberta and, of course, National Chief Atleo. “It is in no small part the vision and conception of the National Chief that has led to this gathering today, and I know we all congratulate him for that leadership.

  • Introducing S. June Menzies
    Introducing S. June Menzies University of Saskatchewan The Diefenbaker years Dief and Atherton Early years Social Justice Bill of Rights Commonwealth Roads to Resources Atherton Diefenbaker was approached by the father of Alfred John “Jack” Atherton, a railway telegrapher accused of causing a crash at Canoe River, British Columbia. In 1950, two trains had collided head-on, killing four locomotive crew members and 17 soldiers bound for Korea. In R. v. Atherton, known as the Canoe River case, he successfully defended Atherton, who was found not guilty of manslaughter. The case was followed nationwide and the acquittal celebrated in the press; it was “one of his major political assets.” Diefenbaker was born in southwestern Ontario in 1895. In 1903, his family migrated west to the portion of the North-West Territories which would shortly thereafter become the province of Saskatchewan. The family moved to the Fort Carlton district in 1903 because the doctors of the era recommended the dry prairie climate to help his father’s breathing problems. In 1905, the family moved to Hauge and in 1906 relocated to a homestead near Borden. In 1910, the Diefenbaker family moved to SASKATOON so that John and his brother Elmer could attend high school. Diefenbaker graduated from what is now Nutana Collegiate in the spring of 1912, and entered the UNIVERSITY OF SASKATCHEWAN as a member of the first class to be educated on the new campus. He later lived in Wakaw and Prince Albert. He grew up in the province, and was interested in politics from a young age. After brief service in World War I, Diefenbaker became a lawyer.

Indigenous leaders are dealing with a variety of challenges and issues. They are overcoming the colonial legacy; dealing with persistent social problems and poverty; navigating between two worlds; preserving culture, traditions and language; and taking on increased authority and responsibilities as they assert or negotiate their inherent rights to self-determination. They are often in the process of establishing institutions of good governance to create stable environments for economic development and their role in the new global economy. The existing literature on Indigenous leadership is not extensive, but it is a growing area. This literature is scattered throughout many academic journals and edited collections in a variety of disciplines, or is unpublished. There are many biographies and collections of leaders, which tend to reflect the “great man” or “hero” approach to studying leadership. Much of the literature also looks at the structures and legitimacy of authority and power wielded by Chiefs, headmen, and other leaders of Indigenous communities.
