Examining the Hudson's Bay Company Fur Trade Post In WASHEO WHISKIHEGGAN: EXAMINING THE HUDSON’S BAY COMPANY FUR TRADE POST IN FORT SEVERN, ONTARIO THROUGH ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT by Katherine Sarah Davidson B.A. (Honours), Trent University, 2016 A Thesis submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate Academic Unit of Anthropology Supervisor: Susan Blair, PhD, Department of Anthropology Examining Board: Melanie G. Wiber, PhD, Department of Anthropology Melissa White, PhD, Department of Education This thesis is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK April, 2019 © Katherine Sarah Davidson, 2019 Abstract This thesis is a two-part examination of the assemblage from the Hudson’s Bay Company Post site (GlIv-1), a fur trade post in Fort Severn, Ontario. Part One of this thesis analyzes the historic archaeological materials which were surface collected from the site between 1950 and 2017. Using Stanley South’s (1977) method of artifact patterning, the GlIv-1 assemblage is found to closely correlate to South’s Frontier Artifact Pattern. Part Two presents the results of a community engagement project which was conducted with middle school classes from Wasaho Cree Nation School in Fort Severn. This project asked students to draw on lessons from the classroom and from community members to write a story about an artifact from the site. By conducting this research in two parts, this thesis aims to understand more about life at a northern trading post, and to create opportunities for the descendant community to engage with their heritage. ii Acknowledgements According to family legend, my great grandfather was known to say that “an education is not a heavy thing to carry”.

  • Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and Their Program Choices
    Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Program Choices by Pamela Williamson A dissertation submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Higher Education Graduate Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Pamela Williamson (2011) Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Post-Secondary Program Choices Doctor of Higher Education 2011 Pamela Williamson Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract The exploratory study focused on First Nation students and First Nation education counsellors within Ontario. Using an interpretative approach, the research sought to determine the relevance of the counsellors as a potentially influencing factor in the students‘ post-secondary program choices. The ability of First Nation education counsellors to be influential is a consequence of their role since they administer Post- Secondary Student Support Program (PSSSP) funding. A report evaluating the program completed by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in 2005 found that many First Nation students would not have been able to achieve post-secondary educational levels without PSSSP support. Eight self-selected First Nation Education counsellors and twenty-nine First Nation post- secondary students participated in paper surveys, and five students and one counsellor agreed to complete a follow-up interview. The quantitative and qualitative results revealed differences in the perceptions of the two survey groups as to whether First Nation education counsellors influenced students‘ post-secondary program choices.

  • The Fiddlers of James Bay: Transatlantic Flows and Musical Indigenization Among the James Bay Cree
    The Fiddlers of James Bay: Transatlantic Flows and Musical Indigenization among the James Bay Cree FRANCES WILKINS Abstract: Fiddle music and dancing have formed a major component of the social lives of the Algonquian 57-99. 40 (1): First Nations Cree population living in the James Bay region of Ontario and Québec since the instrument and its associated repertoire were introduced to the region by British (and most notably Scottish) employees of the Hudson’s Bay Company who travelled across the Atlantic on ships from the late 17th to the 20th MUSICultures century. Based on archival research and ongoing fieldwork in the region since 2011, this article aims to explore this transatlantic musical migration from the British Isles to James Bay and the reshaping of Scottish fiddle music and dance through indigenization and incorporation into the Cree cultural milieu. By examining this area of cultural flow, the article seeks to engage with current themes in ethnomusicology on the subject and add to the growing body of knowledge surrounding them. Résumé : La danse et le violon ont constitué une composante majeure de la vie sociale de la population algonquienne de la Première nation cri vivant dans la région de la baie James, en Ontario et au Québec, puisque cet instrument et le répertoire qui lui était associé furent introduits dans la région par les employés britanniques (et plus particulièrement écossais) de la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson, qui ont traversé l’Atlantique à partir de la fin du 17e siècle jusqu’au 20e siècle. Cet article, qui se fonde sur une recherche en archives et un travail de terrain continu dans la région depuis 2011, cherche à explorer cette migration musicale transatlantique depuis les îles britanniques jusqu’à la baie James, ainsi que le remodelage et la reconstitution de la musique au violon et de la danse écossaise par le biais de leur indigénisation dans le milieu culturel cri.

  • Working As a Service Provider in Moosonee and Moose Factory Here to Stay, Gone Tomorrow
    WORKING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER IN MOOSONEE AND MOOSE FACTORY HERE TO STAY, GONE TOMORROW: WORKING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER IN MOOSONEE AND MOOSE FACTORY By JENNIFER MARIE DAWSON, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial FulfIllment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University (c) Copyright by Jennifer Marie Dawson, September 1995 MASTER OF ARTS (1995) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (Anthropology) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Here to Stay, Gone Tomorrow: Working as a Service Provider in Moosonee and Moose Factory AUTHOR: Jennifer Marie Dawson, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Wayne Warry NUMBER OF PAGES: iv, 264 11 ABSTRACT The experience of a service provider living and working in Moosonee and Moose Factory is largely determined by whether the individual is Cree and from these communities, or is non-Native and from "the south". This study examines these experiences in terms of stress and coping, loosely adopting and occasionally critiquing Lazarus and Folkman's (1984) definitions of these concepts. The cultural and historical factors which influence stress and coping are emphasized without denying the importance of contemporary circumstances in these politically and socially turbulent communities. Non-Native or "southern" service providers are outsiders. They are kept at a distance both by their own interpretation of and reaction to "difference" and by others who are suspicious of their motivations and commitment. Some cope with their outsider status by reinforcing it; they withdraw from active personal and professional participation in community. But instead of refusing to change and clinging desperately to what is familiar, those southerners who have remained the longest in these northern locales are willing to acknowledge the relevance and rewards of different ways of living and working.

  • Notes on Cynipid Galls, Ground Beetles and Ground-Dwelling Spiders Collected at Fort Severn, Ontario JOSEPH D
    ARCTIC VOL. 56, NO. 2 (JUNE 2003) P. 159–167 Notes on Cynipid Galls, Ground Beetles and Ground-Dwelling Spiders Collected at Fort Severn, Ontario JOSEPH D. SHORTHOUSE,1 HENRI GOULET2 and DAVID P. SHORTHOUSE3 (Received 22 November 2001; accepted in revised form 19 August 2002) ABSTRACT. A brief collecting trip to Fort Severn, Ontario (55˚59' N, 87˚38' W), in May 2001 revealed galls of three species of cynipid wasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) on the wild rose Rosa acicularis. Roses and cynipid galls occur along the banks of the Severn River above the tree line because of clay deposits, heat, and rafts of vegetation carried north by the river. Ground beetles and spiders were collected with pitfall traps. Our identification of 15 species of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae), two of them new records for Ontario, and 11 species of ground spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae), all new records for northwestern Ontario, indicates that the invertebrate fauna in the area has been poorly studied. Roads and trails away from Fort Severn, regularly scheduled airline service, and convenient accommodations make the area ideal for biological studies. Key words: cynipid galls, wild roses, ground beetles, ground-dwelling spiders, Fort Severn RÉSUMÉ. Une brève sortie de prélèvement à Fort Severn, en Ontario (55˚ 59' de lat. N., 87˚ 38' de long. O.), effectuée en mai 2001 a révélé l’existence de galles de trois espèces de cynips du rosier (hyménoptères: cynipidés) sur le rosier aciculaire Rosa acicularis. On trouve ce dernier et les galles du rosier le long des rives de la Severn au-dessus de la limite forestière en raison des dépôts d’argile, de la chaleur et de la végétation flottante que transporte la rivière en direction du Nord.

  • Denise Dwyer Assistant Deputy Minister Indigenous Education and Well-Being Division
    Memorandum to: Directors of Education First Nation Education Partners From: Denise Dwyer Assistant Deputy Minister Indigenous Education and Well-Being Division Subject Reciprocal Education Approach: School Eligibility Documentation We would like to begin by thanking you for your continued work in supporting continuity of learning for First Nation students over the course of this past year. As we continue with the implementation of the Reciprocal Education Approach (REA), we have seen the need to be flexible and reduce unnecessary administrative burden where possible to support First Nation students to have equitable access to education. Accordingly, amendments have been made to section 3 of O. Reg. 261/19 (Reciprocal Education Approach) to waive the requirement for First Nation-operated schools previously listed in Table 2 of the regulation to submit documentation to the ministry demonstrating school eligibility. These schools are no longer required to submit this documentation in order to be eligible for funding under the REA in the 2020-21 school year and subsequent school years. The list of eligible schools in Table 1 of section 3 of O. Reg. 261/19 has been updated to include all First Nation-operated schools previously listed on Table 2 of section 3 of the regulation. The updated list of eligible schools can be found in Appendix A, and will be posted on the ministry website and in the 2021-22 REA Instructions. Please note, First Nation-operated schools wishing to participate in the REA who are not listed in the updated Table 1 of the REA Regulation will still be required to submit eligibility documentation to the ministry by October 30 of a given school year to be eligible for REA funding for that school year and subsequent school years.
