I would like to wish a pleasant summer to everyone.

You can tell summer is here you see students

working and the reserve getting a facelift.

I would like to thank the students for the work they do

in the community.

For our new members in Mattawa, several of you

have been asking about hunting and fishing in

Ontario, you can hunt and fish anywhere in Eagle

Village traditional territory, which includes the

Mattawa area, It does not include Algonquin Park.

Should anyone have problems, please refer anyone

to me – Chief Madeleine Paul at 816-627-3455.

The next band meeting will focus on some of the

following topics: aboriginal rights, aboriginal title, what

is the duty to consult etc… because we need to ar-

range certain individuals to present the

information, and it is summer the meeting will be held

in September.

On July 6, we finally signed the MOU with Matamec.

This MOU was to secure the necessary funds to do the

studies necessary to scientifically prove if the mine is

good or not. We will receive $300,000 in

total for Wolf Lake and Eagle Village to conduct the

studies we need. At the present moment we are

putting together a multi-disciplinary team to help us

with these studies.

To give you an idea we are looking for professional

groups or individuals to conduct the following:

Radioactivity related issues;

Archaeology/Heritage sites;

Hydrogeology;

Terrestrial and Aquatic Ecology;

Geology; visual impacts;

Noise and Atmospheric Quality;

Herpetofauna; and socio-economic.

These studies will be shared with the community

as we receive them. Once we have all the data

then we will be able to make an informed decision

on whether we can support the mining

project or not.

Have a wonderful summer and we look forward to

seeing you at the Countryfest on August 17-19.

We are still looking for volunteers for those of you

that could spare 2 hours throughout the weekend.

Meegwech!

YOU CAN OBTAIN

A first Social Insurance Number,

or easier access to your Employment Insurance Information.

In July’s news letter you were informed of Bill C-38 which will

have impact on your unemployment benefit. Below is addi-

tional Information concerning seasonal workers.

“Subject: Impact of Bill C-38 on Workers”

Amendments to the definition of “suitable employment”

and its impact on seasonal workers

An employment insurance claimant may be disqualified from

receiving benefits in certain cases where, in particular, he does

not comply with the obligation to seek or accept “suitable em-

ployment”, and to carry out a “reasonable job search”1. Prior to

the amendment, employment was not considered as “suitable

employment” for a claimant if:

“(2) For the purposes of this section, employment is not suitable

employment for a claimant if:

a. it arises in consequence of a stoppage of work attributable

to a labor dispute;

b. it is in the claimant's usual occupation either at a lower rate

of earnings or on conditions less favorable than those

observed by agreement between employers and

employees, or in the absence of any such agreement, than

those recognized by good employers; or

c. it is not in the claimant's usual occupation and is either at a

lower rate of earnings or on conditions less favorable than

those that the claimant might reasonably expect to obtain,

having regard to the conditions that the claimant usually

obtained in the claimant's usual occupation, or would have

obtained if the claimant had continued to be so

employed.”2

1See subsection 27(1) of the Act.

The amendment limits the definition of what is not “suitable”

employment to employment arising from a stoppage of work

attributable to a labor dispute3. For example, with the

amendment, a claimant who refuses a lower paying job will be

disqualified from receiving employment insurance benefits.

The amendment also permits regulations criteria to be made so

that these two concepts4 could be defined in a more specific

manner. Media reaction5 was very negative concerning the

amendment to the definition of “suitable employment”.

The media announced that claimants could not refuse a job

located at less than 100 km.

in commuting distance and that offers at least 70% of the wages

earned in their usual occupations. There will be significant

impacts in terms of increased poverty, in addition to the more

serious effects for seasonal workers, especially in the regions.

The new definition of “suitable employment” restricts the possi-

bility of seasonal workers to supplement their annual income

with employment insurance. This has several consequences:

- Many important seasonal jobs may see workers leaving for

permanent, year-round employment. These could include

fishermen, snow removal workers and agricultural, tourism and

forestry workers.

- Employers in the regions who hire seasonal workers could see

these workers leaving for urban centre's to seek permanent, year

-round employment because of the commuting distance limit

that was changed in the definition of suitable work.

- The obligation to accept a job that offers at least 70% of the

wages earned in one’s usual occupation contains a risk in such

that at the end of the employment, a job that offers at least 70%

of wages that have already been lowered must be accepted, and

so on and so forth. Thus, a lowering of wages could be caused

by this measurer.”

2See subsection 27(2) of the Act. 3Amendments to subsections 27(2) and (3) of the Act. 4Additions of paragraphs 54k.1) and 54k.2) to the Act. 5In order to find out more about various viewpoints, I consulted articles in several daily

newspapers that discuss Bill C-38, particularly in La Tribune, L’Actualité.com, La Presse and

L’Hebdo regional de Salaberry-de-Valleyfield.

Secure Certificate of Indian Status (SCIS) UpdateSecure Certificate of Indian Status (SCIS) UpdateSecure Certificate of Indian Status (SCIS) Update


Overview on the Secure Certificate of Indian Status:

Any individual registered as an Indian under the

Indian Act is eligible for the Secure Certificate of

Indian Status (SCIS), regardless of age, and can

apply for a card, which provides access to a wide

range of services and benefits administered by

federal and provincial governments and other private

sector program and service providers.

The Secure Certificate of Indian Status (SCIS)

includes several security improvements to help

protect First Nations individuals from identity theft

while providing them with access to benefits and

services. The existing Certificate of Indian Status

(CIS) is either a paper-laminate or plastic card with

very few of the security features now normally

expected of a government issued identity document

that provides access to benefits and services.

This makes the card open to tampering and

counterfeiting.

On Current Measure: There was a backlog in processing

applications for the SCIS which resulted in a delay in

delivering the card. The Department of Aboriginal

Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC)

is working quickly to process applications and deliver

the SCIS as quickly as possible. Since it is critical that

all applicants have immediate access to services and

benefits accessible through the SCIS, the Department

is focusing its resources, at this time, on producing and

distributing the in-Canada format of the SCIS.

This will get a SCIS in the hands of as many applicants

as quickly as possible.

Applicants will be advised on the status of the

border-crossing format in the near future. As more

information becomes available, it will also be

posted on AANDC's website.

On Border-Crossing: For crossing the border into the

U.S. via land and water ports of entry (which can

include ferry and lake crossings), AANDC has been

advised that for the near term, U.S. border officers

will accept both the SCIS and older Certificates of

Indian Status, including those SCIS that indicate

"not valid for border crossing" on the back of the

card, as valid identity documents. AANDC is working

with U.S.counterparts to inform U.S. border officers

of this change.

Going Forward:

The Government of Canada cautions individuals that

the duration for the acceptance of these documents for

border crossing purposes into the United States is

entirely at the discretion of the U.S. Government. A list

of documents approved for entering the United States

can be found at www.knowyourborder.gov

Please note that travelers entering the United States

by air continue to be required to present a valid

passport or in certain circumstances, a NEXUS card.

If you urgently require documentation for

entering the United States please contact

Passport Canada.

Both formats of the SCIS (in-Canada and

border-crossing) as well as the current

paper-laminate CIS are currently accepted as valid

identity documents for entry into Canada

Where can I apply for a SCIS?

You can apply in-person by visiting

one of the following offices:

• AANDC Regional Offices - Winnipeg

MB, Regina SK, Edmonton AB,

Calgary AB, Yellowknife NT

• Treaty 7 First Nations offices in Alberta

• AANDC district offices - Kahnawake QC,

Prince Albert, SK

• AANDC Headquarters in Gatineau, QC.

Information will be updated on the AANDC

website when other points of service are opening.

What do I need to bring?

To obtain a SCIS, an individual

needs to provide the following documents:

•Current Status card (if applicable)

•Original proof of birth document

• Name-linking documents (if required)

• Two passport-style photographs

• Valid identification

• Completed application form

interact with the Elders and share wisdom of

knowledge.

emotional and physical teachings of the

Anicinabe culture, traditions and language.

reconciliation and how we must come to terms with

the past and move on with a good healing journey.

Awareness, Community Gathering and Feast

Participants of the workshops along with our

respected Elder will celebrate what we learned and

we will pass on our knowledge by talking about what

we learned at a gathering day at the end of the

project.

The gathering will be open to the general public.

As well, an Indian residential school information

booth will be set up to pass on this knowledge. The

day will end with a traditional feast.

Several more workshops are being planned

and are in the booking process.

We will announce them in the

next newsletter and by posters.

(Summer Gathering)

During the Weekend of July 6th - 8th,

A number of Algonquin Communities gathered to

compete in various games such as;

Canoe Races, Log Sawing, Tug of War,

High Power Rifle etc...

We also had a dry dance on Saturday, where square

dancing and step dancing was enjoyed by all who

attended. The event was for all ages and Algonquin

Communities, however some communities had to

decline at the last minute, however Eagle Village still

had the opportunity to socialize with members from

Kitigan Zibi, Timiskaming First Nation, Long Point

First Nation, Wahgoshig First Nation,

Wolf Lake First Nation, and Pikogan First Nation.

It was a great experience and we look forward to next

year, where it will be hosted in another

Algonquin Community !!

A very BIG Thank You

and Appreciation goes

out to the volunteer

helpers of the

16th Annual Boat Rally!

The stop over and stamp destination people were

Mel & Maxine McKenzie (Muskeg Bay),

Corey Dandy (White Birch Point Camp) and

Gerald & Laurette Young (Red Pine).

Registration volunteer was Judy Young.

As the people returned on time they were dealt a

open hand of poker and my volunteer helpers

with this were Amanda Joly and Tanya Samuel.

You all done a awesome job.

Thanks A million again Volunteers without you

people, this would not all be possible.

They were a 167 participants and

209 poker hands sold.

The Rally winners were:

1st Place Marcel Roy

2nd Place Carole Gagnon

3rd Place Norman Young

HARM REDUCTIONHARM REDUCTIONHARM REDUCTION

What is Harm Reduction? What is Harm Reduction? What is Harm Reduction?

Harm reduction is a controversial term. Harm Reduction

Policies and Programs for Persons Involved in the Criminal

Justice System-defined harm reduction as “a health-centered

approach that seeks to reduce the health and social harm as-

sociated with alcohol and drug use, without necessarily requir-

ing that users abstain. Harm reduction is a non-judgmental

response that meets users ‘where they are’ with regard to their

substance use. Harm reduction includes a broad continuum

or responses, from safer substance use to abstinence. Essen-

tial to a harm reduction approach is that it offers users a

choice of how they will minimize harms to themselves.

The following are features of harm reduction:

Pragmatism: Harm reduction accepts that some use of psy-

cho-active substances is inevitable, and that some level of

substance use is expected in a society.

Humane Values: No moralistic judgment is made, either to

condemn or to support use of substances, regardless of level

of use or mode of intake. The dignity and rights of the person

who uses alcohol and other drugs are respected.

Focus on Harms: The extent of a person’s substance use is

of secondary importance to the harms resulting from that use.

Hierarchy of Goals: Most harm reduction programs have a

hierarchy of goals; the most pressing needs are addressed first

(Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse National Policy Work-

ing Group, 1996).

Fundamental features of harm reduction, specifically its focus

on humane values, overlap with traditional Aboriginal values

such as respect. The principles of harm reduction are

not unknown to Aboriginal peoples and some observ-

ers have pointed to similarities between harm reduc-

tion and a holistic Aboriginal approach to substance

abuse treatment, including the importance of links

between the community and the individual (Peele,

2003).

To help understand the concept of harm reduction, consider

the non-substance-specific example of seatbelts. In a car acci-

dent, seatbelts can help reduce the extent of physical injury

suffered by the occupants of the car by, for example, keeping

them from being thrown out of the vehicle. With substance

abuse, the provision of sterile injection equipment to intrave-

nous drug users can help reduce the spread of blood-borne

diseases, and the distribution of controlled quantities of alco-

holic beverages to alcohol-dependent individuals in home-less

shelters can help to curtail the ingestion of non-beverage alco-

hol products.

Models of abstinence and prohibition typically do not allow

for moderate or reduced use-something that is implicit in most

harm reduction policies and programs. Consequently, the

emphasis on abstinence in Aboriginal communities has been

identified as a barrier to offering and expanding harm reduc-

tion services (Canadian Aboriginal AIDS Network, 1998;

Erickson, 1992; Wardman & Quantz, 2006).

Contrary to what many people believe, abstinence and harm

reduction are not totally incompatible. Common to both is

the goal of assisting individuals with the harms they are ex-

periencing because of their problematic use.

Picky Eater Tips Picky Eater Tips Picky Eater Tips ––– How To Get Your Child To Eat Healthy How To Get Your Child To Eat Healthy How To Get Your Child To Eat Healthy

1. Avoid letting your child snack all day long. If they aren’t

very hungry at mealtime they are less likely to try new

foods.

2. Introduce one new food at a time. Introduce it with an-

other food they enjoy.

3. Just try to offer them one bite of the healthy food they

don’t want to eat. If your child refuses, don’t give up or

get mad. It just means they won’t try it today but that

does not mean forever. Keep bringing that vegetable back

to mealtime every several days or so.

4. Be a fun healthy eating role model. The kids are watching

you and paying attention. Pile on those veggies on your

plate and let them know how delicious it is. A little extra

acting is okay. You have an audience!

5. If you find a couple of vegetables that they do like, well, it

is okay to repeatedly serve them. Just continue to intro-

duce one new food at a time.

6. Try to eliminate distractions, like TV, telephone, and cell

phones during mealtime.

7. Don’t despair. That leads to frustration and stress at meal

times. That doesn’t help you or the child. Be patient there

is no magic solutions because kids, like us adults, have

different personalities, tolerance levels, patience, moods

etc. So in other words, what works for one child may not

work for another. *Introduce one new food at a time.

Introduce it with another food they enjoy.

8. Don’t make your child clean their plate. Forget that old

fashioned way of thinking. We now know that kids, espe-

cially under five, have a good sense of their hunger. They

will stop eating when they are full. The portion size they

were given may be too much for them.

9. Avoid bribing please! ie “If you eat your vegetables, you

can have dessert later.” Think about the message that will

send to your child. Dessert- reward, fun, happy, success.

Vegetables - not fun, requires a condition in order to eat

them, Multiple studies have shown that bribing kids does-

n’t promote good healthy food choices in the long run.

10. Make the foods interesting. Jazz up those vegetables and

fruits. Kids love dipping foods, so how about adding a

low fat dip for their vegetables or fruits. Serve them their

vegetable with a vegetable made of into a picture or

funny face. Just imagine their faces when they sit down

and see a happy smile made of celery, carrots and cu-

cumbers. Make fruits and vegetables a fun event for kids.

Have them color their plate with the food item. See if

they can name the different colors. You can come up

with different games using fruits and vegetables that can

peak their interest about the food.

11. To add more nutrition for that stubborn picky eater who

absolutely refuses to eat vegetables or fruits, be creative.

You can add vegetables into some of their favorite meals.

Dice them finely and add these healthy foods to their fa-

vorite meatloaf, stew, soup, casserole dish or pasta.

12. Take advantage of other activities to expose your child to

healthy foods outside of mealtime. Have them help you

pick out the vegetables and fruits at the grocery store. Let

them help prepare the foods.

13. It’s okay for kids to have a dessert or high sugar, high fat

food once in awhile. Avoid completely eliminating a food

they enjoy. It will only make them want it more. Instead,

teach your child how these foods are good to have once

in a while. Help them learn to eat small portions of these

kinds of foods. Being healthy is about moderation, bal-

ance and portion sizes. There is room in a child’s diet for

all kinds of foods. Some every day and others once in

while. When there are independent tweens/teens they will

be making their own food choices. Home is a chance to

teach children good eating habits and that includes teach-

ing them about these high sugar foods and high fat foods.

Beverages are part of a child's healthy meal plan. Healthy

beverages can quench their thirst and provide added nutri-

tion. But there are so many beverages on the market that are

promoted for children.

Recommended Healthy Beverages For Children

Water is the best drink for hydration. Zero calories and

very needed by the body. Plain and simple.

Milk is a drink that is part of the My Plate Dairy group

and is one way that children can get the necessary cal-

cium and vitamin D they need to grow strong bones and

teeth.

100% fruit juice provides children with the nutrition from

the fruit group. Which is also important for developing

and maintaining a healthy body. But fruit juice, even

100% fruit juice, is higher in sugar.

Beverages Should Be Avoided

Children Do Not Need These Beverages

Some of the caffeine, stimulants and chemicals added to these

drinks can be harmful to children.

Sports drinks

Energy drinks

Coffee based drinks

5 Signs You’ll Develop Diabetes5 Signs You’ll Develop Diabetes5 Signs You’ll Develop Diabetes

Have you ever stopped to take stock of your risk factors for

diabetes? By 2012, almost three million Canadians will know

they have the disease. Will you be one of them? Here are five

signs you might develop diabetes:

1. You’re overweight and underactive

Of all people diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, over 85 per-

cent of them are overweight. Abdominal obesity (fat

around your middle) in particular is associated with a high risk

of diabetes. Putting on weight raises your body’s resistance to

insulin. And that causes high blood sugar.

If you’re sedentary – that is, you don’t get much physical ac-

tivity in a typical day – then your risk of developing diabetes is

doubled. The World Health Organization estimates that up to

85 percent of us rarely get off our duffs.

Just by adding activity to your lifestyle, you reduce

two risk factors for diabetes. Not only will exercise lower

your insulin resistance, but it will also help you shed weight.

Research shows that losing even just a few pounds can pre-

vent or delay Type 2 diabetes.

2. You eat all the foods your mom told you to avoid

If you’re a big fan of high-fat, sugary foods and you enjoy

them regularly, you’re making yourself a menu for diabetes.

"People don’t necessarily think of their diet – their comfort

foods and their regular foods – as putting them at risk," says

Dr. Stewart Harris, a family physician who specializes in dia-

betes and is the Canadian Diabetes Association chair in dia-

betes management at the University of Western Ontario’s

Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry.

But if you make a habit of eating fried foods, drinking pop,

slathering on the salad dressing and having a second piece of

cake, you’re increasing your odds of gaining weight,

which in turn increases insulin resistance and puts

you at greater risk of diabetes. You could also develop

high cholesterol and high blood pressure, problems that are

often found in people with diabetes and are associated with

heart disease.

Try eating your favourite foods in smaller portions. Or reach

for diet pop or fat-free ice cream when you have cravings.

3. You have a risky family tree

If Type 2 diabetes has been diagnosed in your immediate

family – your mom or dad, your brother or sister, or your

child – then your chances of getting diabetes yourself are

higher.

But when it comes to family history, your ethnicity also

counts towards your diabetes risk. You’re more likely to

develop Type 2 diabetes if your background is Aboriginal,

South Asian, Asian, African or Hispanic.

You can’t change your genes, but you can change your risk

level. Since diabetes runs in families, it makes sense to im-

prove your health as a family. If everyone in your household

aims for better food choices and more physical activity, you’re

all more likely to succeed.

4. You have certain "female problems"

Certain women are more likely to develop diabetes than oth-

ers. They include women with polycystic ovary syndrome, a

female hormonal imbalance that can cause irregular periods.

Mothers who’ve given birth to big babies (over 4,000 grams)

may develop diabetes. And pregnant women who have gesta-

tional diabetes – that is, diabetes found only during the preg-

nancy – are seven times likelier to have Type 2 diabetes later

in life than moms who didn’t.

But, just like people in other high-risk groups, you can better

your odds by watching your diet and staying active.

5. You’re over 40

Although it’s true that Type 2 diabetes is being diagnosed in

younger and younger people, the disease is still most fre-

quently identified after age 40. "That’s when we see the

spike," says Dr. Harris. "That’s why we recommend regular

routine screening starting at age 40 across the general popula-

tion."

Everyone should be checked for diabetes after 40. But

it may make sense to test even earlier if you fall into one or

more of the high-risk groups. Your best bet? Talk to your doc-

tor about the diabetes testing that’s right for you.
