    Byng Inlet Water Quality Characterization – 2014-2016 1/10/2017 Prepared for: Magnetawan First Nation Clark 13 Aubrey St., Bracebridge, ON P1L 1M1 705 645 2967 1/10/2017 Anthony LaForge Director of Lands and Resources Magnetawan First Nation 10 Highway 529, Britt, ON P0G 1A0 Dear Mr. LaForge, I am pleased to submit this report which summarizes the water quality monitoring that was conducted on Byng Inlet from 2014 to 2016. This report summarizes the findings of the three-year project. An examination of measured runoff depths and mean Magnetawan P concentrations indicate export coefficients typical of forested watersheds. This means that the Magnetawan River is behaving like a natural river with respect to phosphorus concentrations. Watershed inputs to Byng Inlet from the Magnetawan River are therefore not a concern with respect to phosphorus at this time. These results indicate that although the water quality with respect to nutrients is excellent there are sources of nutrients within the Inlet that contribute to phosphorus loading but these are difficult to assess due to the large volume of dilution water contributed by the Magnetawan River. There has been an effort here to identify the potential sources of phosphorus to Byng Inlet but no effort has been made to quantify the loads from these sources. Variations in the phosphorus concentrations both seasonally and between sample stations tend to vary between years but it should be noted that the magnitude of the variation in P concentrations is slight. In addition, the measured concentrations of total phosphorus indicate excellent water quality relative to Provincial Water Quality Objectives.

    The Anishinabek Nation Governance Agreement At a Glance ANISHINABEK NATION GOVERNANCE AGREEMENT OVERVIEW For more than 25 years, the Anishinabek Nation and the Government of Canada have been negotiating the proposed Anishinabek Nation Governance Agreement that will recognize, not create, the Anishinabek First Nations’ law-making powers and authority to self-govern, thus removing them from the governance provisions of the Indian Act. The First Nations that ratify the proposed Anishinabek Nation Governance Agreement (Participating First Nations) will have the power to enact laws in the following areas: leadership selection, citizenship, language and culture, and operation of government. The proposed Anishinabek Nation Governance Agreement includes the complementary Anishinabek Nation Fiscal Agreement that outlines the funding for governance-related functions.

    DIBAAJMOWIN A bi-monthly communication from the Kinoomaadziwin Education Body August Mnoomni 2019 Giizis Staff of the Kinoomaadziwin Education Body ready at the start line of their group scavenger hunt. The team-building exercise encouraged staff to work together to complete various tasks in the fastest time. Tracey O’Donnell, Sara Jamieson and Renee Restoule (at far right) took first place. Please see additional information about the KEB staff and board retreat on pages 2-3. STRATEGIC DIRECTION & COMMUNICATIONS AT KEB STAFF RETREAT The Kinoomaadziwin Education Body held its first staff retreat on July 9 and 10, at Fern Resort in Rama, Ontario. With a complete year of implementation to review and assess, the KEB team gathered over two days to discuss the successes and challenges of the first year, roles and responsibilities of the organization, opportunities for improvement, and renewed strategic planning. Team-building activities encouraged the 13 staff members of the KEB to learn more about each other’s roles and to work collaboratively towards accomplishing group tasks. Some of the unique exercises that grounded the retreat included a teaching about carrying personal medicine bundles, and identifying daily applications of the AES vision and mission. Staff also made time to set personal goals, reflect on their job descriptions and share their needs for professional development. The KEB Board of Directors joined staff members on July 11, taking advantage of a rare opportunity to meet in person and build on new relationships. Staff and Directors participated in a group challenge, reviewed priorities and talked about next steps for the organization.

The Harper government is prov- ing that it views First Nations people as substandard so they only deserve substandard fund- ing. Education is a treaty right and that the government is break- ing yet another sacred promise.” Madahbee had just attended BILLBOARD BUDGET CUTS a summit in Gatineau, Quebec, The billboard at Saskatoon's AKA Gallery is actually an installation called "Budget Cuts, 2012, from Every Line & Every Other Line" by which concluded with Chiefs re- Cathy Busby, a Canadian artist based in Halifax.

  • About-The-Governance
    Governance Working Group Overview Working Groups and the Anishinabek Nation Governance Initiatives The Anishinabek Nation is currently in the process of implementing two self-governance initiatives to restore inherent jurisdictional rights to Anishinabek First Nations and their people in areas of Education and Governance. The mandates for these initiatives have come from Grand Council Resolutions that are directed by the Chiefs in Assembly, as part of an overall Nation-Building strategy that includes the implementation of the Anishinabek Declaration 1980. These resolutions, which are implemented by the Leadership and technical staff of the Anishinabek Nation, have mandated initiatives such as the Restoration of Jurisdiction Project, the Constitution Development Project, the E’Dbendaagzijig Citizenship Law, the Anishinabek Child Well-Being Law, and the Education and Governance Agreement Negotiations. The Anishinabek Nation has been negotiating with Canada for the restoration of jurisdiction in Education for over 20 years, and following a successful ratification in December 2016, the Kinoomaadziwin Education Board is forging ahead with the Anishinabek Education System (AES) start-up and implementation planning, and nearing conclusion of the Master Education Agreement with the province of Ontario. Governance has been in negotiations for more than 10 years and the Agreement is nearing completion and preparing for a vote in May/June 2019. Upon completion, both self-governance agreements will enable First Nations with law-making authorities in the specific areas of Education and Governance. As part of the on-going negotiations and the development of the two agreements, First Nation Chiefs recognized the importance of having grassroots input into the negotiations, and therefore mandated the Anishinabek Nation to coordinate the development of two working groups.
