  • TITLE: Cameco Corporation: Uranium Mining and Aboriginal Development in Saskatchewan[1]
    This case was written by Saleem H. Ali for the purpose of entering the 2000 Aboriginal Management Case Writing Competition. TITLE: Cameco Corporation: Uranium Mining and Aboriginal Development in Saskatchewan[1] The Setting The topic of Bernard Michel's speech was general in nature, yet quite specific in substance: "Corporate Citizenship and the Saskatchewan Uranium Industry." He had been invited by the Uranium Institute in London, UK to share his company's experiences in negotiating agreements with Native communities in Northern Saskatchewan. As the President and Chief Executive Officer of Cameco, the world's largest uranium mining company, his speech was much anticipated by the audience. The Uranium mines of Saskatchewan are an interesting laboratory for the study of corporate community relations......The community relations programme's first action was to listen through public hearings to the communities' expressed concerns.......Today 80% of Saskatchewan's residents, compared with 65% in 1990, support continued uranium mining. This reflects the industry's community relations initiative. Cameco's shares also trade at 3.5 times their 1991 issue price. Only a small segment of anti-nuclear activists takes a negative view. Relationships with local communities, like uranium ore, are a valuable resource needing competent development.[2] Originally from France, and a graduate of the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, Michel, had spent the past two decades in Canada working for various mining interests. Having served as Senior Vice President, Executive Vice President and President for a subsidiary of the French nuclear conglomerate Cogema, Amok Ltd, Michel had eminent credentials to join Cameco in 1988.

  • The Life Long Process of Growing Cree and Metis Children
    OPIKINAWASOWIN: THE LIFE LONG PROCESS OF GROWING CREE AND METIS CHILDREN By LEAH MARIE DORION Integrated Studies Project submitted to Dr. Winona Wheeler in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts – Integrated Studies Athabasca, Alberta September 30, 2010 ABSTRACT This research project explores Cree and Metis Elders teachings about traditional child rearing and investigates how storytelling is used to facilitate the transfer of this culturally based knowledge. This project examines the concept of Opikinawasowin which contains the Cree philosophical framework for growing children. Opikinawasowin, translates into English as the „child rearing way‟ and is a highly valued aspect of traditional Cree life. For generations Cree and Metis people used storytelling to actualize the teachings of Opikinawasowin. The concept of Opikinawasowin in this study is defined and expressed through Cree and Metis Elders points of view and by the sharing of traditional teachings. Storytelling is used by Elders to impart core values and beliefs about parenting. Through stories Elders give specific teachings relating to how individuals, families, and communities are expected to practice traditional child rearing. Additionally, Opikinawasowin knowledge is often transmitted through the cultural context of prayer and ceremony so asking Elders about the spiritual foundation of Opikinawasowin is an important aspect within this research. This study documents thirteen traditional parenting teachings and identifies fifty four recommendations for further discussion regarding the revival of traditional parenting teachings and practices in our contemporary families and communities. Some issues raised in this study include the need to restore male and female balance in our families, communities, and nation so that our children will have this balance role modeled for them because it is an original feature of traditional society.
