The Autoethnography of an Ininiw from God’s Lake, Manitoba, Canada: First Nation Water Governance Flows from Sacred Indigenous Relationships, Responsibilities and Rights to Aski by Stewart Lloyd Hill A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of the University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Natural Resources and Environmental Management Natural Resources Institute University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Copyright © 2020 by Stewart Lloyd Hill Abstract The Ininiw of Manitou (God's) Sakahigan (Lake), now known as God's Lake First Nation (GLFN), are an Indigenous people of Turtle Island, now called North America. As a GLFN Ininiw, I tell my autoethnography, drawing on a half-century of experience, both personal and professional, as well as a literature review, government data, and fieldwork. The medicine wheel framework required that I consider the spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental aspects of GLFN's water governance. I applied another Medicine wheel teaching regarding the Indigenous learning process to analyze this data, which provided an analytical framework to systematically process the data through heart, mind, body, and spirit. This thesis provides abundant evidence that the Ininiw of GLFN did not "cede or surrender" water governance in their traditional territory. Living in a lake environment, the GLFN Ininiw have survived, lived, thrived, and governed the aski (land and water) granted by Manitou (Creator) for thousands of years according to natural law. Through Ininiw governance, we kept God's Lake pristine. As GLFN Ininiw people's Aboriginal and treaty rights to govern over the waters of our ancestral lands were never surrendered, the GLFN Ininiw hold this governance still.

Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes
Zawadzka Temagami Area Rock Art 159 Beyond the Sacred: Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes Dagmara Zawadzka The rock art of the Temagami area in northeastern Ontario represents one of the largest concentrations of this form of visual expression on the Canadian Shield. Created by Algonquian-speaking peoples, it is an inextricable part of their cultural landscape. An analysis of the distribution of 40 pictograph sites in relation to traditional routes known as nastawgan has revealed that an overwhelming majority are located on these routes, as well as near narrows, portages, or route intersections. Their location seems to point to their role in the navigation of the landscape. It is argued that rock art acted as a wayfinding landmark; as a marker of places linked to travel rituals; and, ultimately, as a sign of human occupation in the landscape. The tangible and intangible resources within which rock art is steeped demonstrate the relationships that exist among people, places, and the cultural landscape, and they point to the importance of this form of visual expression.

The family drove us from our home in Winnipeg to Selkirk to board the S.S. Keenora. I was sailing north to teach at the United Church Indian Residential School on the Norway House (Swampy Cree) Indian Reserve. My sister, Sheila, was joining me for a week before she returned to her studies at the University of Manitoba. The Reid family was a nomadic Canadian family - Dad worked for the CNR, Mom stayed home to raise her three girls. We had lived in several major centres in South West Ontario. In 1953 Dad was transferred to Edmonton (we thought it was the end of the world!) - it was a major uprooting from a corner of Ontario. We loved Edmonton. I took my teacher training at the University of Alberta and taught in Edmonton for one year. But I was looking for an experience beyond city teaching. I was an active member of Robertson United Church (now Robertson- Wesley United Church). Our minister Rev. Dr. Douglas Smith, encouraged me to consider a United Church Mission School. I considered, applied and was accepted to teach at the Norway House Indian Residential School.

Social Problems, Community Trauma and Hydro Project Impacts
SOCIAL PROBLEMS, COMMUNITY TRAUMA AND HYDRO PROJECT IMPACTS Martin Loney Box 45, R.R. 3 Manotick, Ontario Canada, K4M 1B4 Abstract / Resume The cumulative effects of hydro regulation on Aboriginal communities suggests that the concept of community trauma may provide additional insights. Evidence from a number of hydro developments is considered, particularly in northern Manitoba. It is concluded that impacted communi- ties appear to exhibit significant and measurable increases in social pathol- ogy, consistent with the concept of community trauma. Les effets cumulatifs du règlement hydro-électrique sur les communautés autochtones suggèrent que le concept de trauma communautaire puisse permettre de mieux comprendre la situation. On a examiné le cas d'un nombre de développements hydro-électriques, en particulier au nord du Manitoba. On conclut que les communautés concernées semblent présent- er des signes d'une augmentation importante et mesurable de pathologies sociales compatibles avec le concept de trauma communautaire. 232 Martin Loney Introduction The development and application of the concept of community trauma is largely associated with the work of Kai T. Erikson. In his award winning study of the effects of a devastating and deadly flood on the mining community of Buffalo Creek, Erikson wrote: By collective trauma…I mean a blow to the basic tissues of social life that damages the bonds attaching people together and impairs the prevailing sense of communality. The collec- tive trauma works its way slowly and even insidiously into the awareness of those who suffer from it, so it does not have the quality of suddenness normally associated with “trauma” (Erik- son 1976:154) Evidence regarding the impact of hydro regulation on Native commu- nities, in northern Manitoba and elsewhere, suggests the concept may have some relevance in understanding the magnitude of the cumulative effects.1 Background In the early 1960s Manitoba Hydro began the damming of the Sas- katchewan River to develop the Grand Rapids generating station.

Norway House
Norway House Economic Opportunity and The Rise of Community 1825-1844 James McKillip Norway House Economic Opportunity and The Rise of Community 1825-1844 James McKillip Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the PhD in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © James McKillip, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 ABSTRACT This dissertation argues that the Hudson’s Bay Company depot that was built at Norway House beginning in 1825 created economic opportunities that were sufficiently strong to draw Aboriginal people to the site in such numbers that, within a decade of its establishment, the post was the locus of a thriving community. This was in spite of the lack of any significant trade in furs, in spite of the absence of an existing Aboriginal community on which to expand and in spite of the very small number of Hudson’s Bay Company personnel assigned to the post on a permanent basis. Although economic factors were not the only reason for the development of Norway House as a community, these factors were almost certainly primus inter pares of the various influences in that development. This study also offers a new framework for the conception and construction of community based on documenting day-to-day activities that were themselves behavioural reflections of intentionality and choice. Interpretation of these behaviours is possible by combining a variety of approaches and methodologies, some qualitative and some quantitative. By closely counting and analyzing data in archival records that were collected by fur trade agents in the course of their normal duties, it is possible to measure the importance of various activities such as construction, fishing and hunting.

The Conference of Manitoba came into existence in June of 1925 with the creation of The United Church of Canada through the union of the Methodist, Presbyterian, Congregational and Local Union Churches of Canada. The name was changed in 1980 to the Conference of Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario as a result of a successful petition to the General Council of the United Church by Cambrian Presbytery. The Conference encompasses the entire province of Manitoba and the area of Northwestern Ontario drained by the Rainy River and Winnipeg River systems as far east as Marathon, Ontario and south to the United States border. The Conference has an administrative as well as a geographic meaning. The thirteen conferences within The United Church of Canada function as a governing body or court of the church. Very simply, they are composed of members of the Order of Ministry on the roll of Presbyteries within the geographical bounds of the Conference and lay persons under appointment to administrative or staff positions within the Conference by a court of the church or the United Church General Council.
