Town advises public to swim at own risk at town beach Shayla Bradley Staff Writer

HILE the municipality waits for environmental testing and analysis at the town beach (Farlinger Park), town officials are advising the public to make their own decisions about swimming in the area. “As a precautionary measure, the municipality will be installing “Swim at your own risk” signage at Farlinger Park (Town) Beach,” informed CAO Ann Mitchell. “While there is no conclusive evidence at this time of any risk to public health or the environment, the municipality is taking this step as a means of encouraging the public to

use their own judgement as to whether or not to continue to swim at the beach. The area of the beach which is cordoned off will remain so, again, as a precautionary measure.” Contamination was reported in September 2015. In late May 2016, the town advised it had hired the environmental engineering firm Pinchin Ltd. Expected reports from the firm will contain information regarding potential sources of contamination, and remediation plans. “We won’t have any information until the environmental engineering firm completes its testing and analysis, and provides us with the final report,” shared Mitchell. “There were some

I have requested an update on the timelines, but I don’t have that information at the moment.” Gary Wheeler, spokesman for the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, said, “As noted previously, the ministry received a report, in April 2016, of an oily sheen within a small area close to shore.

Angeconeb admitted. “It does tell our history as a nation, our history in this region, because in northwestern Ontario, from Thunder Bay west to the Manitoba border, in that area there were nine residential schools. That’s a lot for the geographical area. So you can imagine the impact that those schools had on our people and our communities, and continue to have those impacts from the residential schools.” The display features pictures, text, video, archival material, and personal recollections telling the story of the residential school experience in this area. While visiting the exhibit, Angeconeb ran into a cousin of his, Renee Southwind, and they began to discuss the exhibit. “We were looking at the pictures of Pelican (Indian Residential School) and we started to remember many things, good and bad. You have to understand the triggers.” He further shared, “We got talking about the display as we went around looking at the pictures. At the end we said, there’s something missing here. It’s good to tell the history of our people. It’s good to tell the history of this country, but there is something missing. We need a ceremony so that good comes out of this unfortunate and sad chapter of our

collective history,” Angeconeb then reached out to elder Tom Chisel to perform a ceremony to bless the exhibit. Chisel performed the blessing on July 5 outside the museum, stating he, too, felt the power of the exhibit. “People, when they come here, it’s an emotional time,” he stated. “There is understanding of what really went on, what really happened, and why we still live with the effects of what happened because it is still a living history,” Angeconeb added. Angeconeb, a Lac Seul band member and Sioux Lookout resident, thanked the municipality of Sioux Lookout and the museum for bringing in the travelling exhibit and asked that people viewing it “open their minds and hearts and eyes and look deeply into the story behind every picture.” The exhibit, on loan from the Lake of the Woods Museum in Kenora, will be on display until August 3 during museum hours, Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays between noon and four p.m. Special viewings of the exhibit can also be arranged by contacting museum and culture supervisor Meredith Culham at museum@ siouxlookout.ca or calling 807-737-1994 ext. 9902. Admission to the exhibit is free.

EDITORIAL

Municipality undercutting private sector We the Sioux Lookout Tax Payers Coalition recently became aware of information released from the June 15 public meeting. We were not in attendance at this meeting, but the following quotes were obtained. Our CAO provided a presentation intended to show that the municipality was not in direct competition (undercutting) the private sector regarding business and office rental space. “We are not

undercutting the private sector” and “there is clearly a market for these office rentals, otherwise our facilities would not be rented to capacity.” Here are factors the coalition has previously identified, verified, and announced. The municipality continues to take on, and expand business projects in the private sector that we taxpayers are billed for: i.e. train station and centennial centre. The spaces in these facilities are rented out to businesses and services which compete

REPORT FROM PARLIAMENT HILL Bob Nault MP, Kenora Riding

Health care in the riding One of the biggest challenges we face living in the north is equal access to health care. I’m pleased that this government is committed to working with provincial, local, and Indigenous organizations to improve access for everyone in the north. This week we announced $382 million

in funding for a proactive response to Jordan’s Principle. The principle is a child-first approach that addresses the needs of First Nations children living on reserve with a disability or a short-term condition. It ensures all children have access to the health and social services they need, when they need them. The policy aims to end the jurisdictional battle

Canadian Rangers from Lac Seul highly visible at military ceremony in Toronto By Peter Moon Two Canadian Rangers from Lac Seul had a prominent role in a major military ceremony in Toronto that marked the change of command for the general commanding the Canadian Army in Ontario. The Rangers – Master Corporal Denise Ningewance and Corporal Rita Brisket – were parade markers, which meant they stood on both sides of the saluting platform. They wore their distinctive Ranger red sweaters

and held long cavalry lances during the hour-long ceremony. The parade was held in front of the Parliament Buildings at Queen’s Park and marked the change of command for the 4th Canadian Division, which is the Canadian Army in Ontario. The new commander is BrigadierGeneral Stephen Cadden, who replaced BrigadierGeneral Lowell Thomas. The parade featured a 100-member guard of honour and a military band. One member of the guard fainted in the 28 degree heat. “I saw him fall,” said MCpl. Ningewance,

directly with the private sector. In addition, these facilities are operated at an annual deficit. We believe this lack of fiscal responsibility must be addressed. The private sector doesn’t have the ability to renovate and maintain their facilities using taxpayers’ money. The municipality is currently subsidizing losses with taxpayers’ money which the private sector can’t afford to do. The private sector has to pay property taxes on their facilities whereas the municipality doesn’t.

The private sectors also pay income/corporate taxes on income generated from their facilities whereas the municipality is exempt from paying these taxes. For these reasons, the private sector is being undercut and can’t compete with the municipality on a level playing field. The CAO’s analysis and report to council is lacking depth and is flawed. It doesn’t make sense that the municipality is operating these facilities in a deficit given all the competitive advantages.

The municipality needs to get out of the real estate business. We understand that the inherited decisions of previous councils have impacted the responsibilities of the present council: but at some point must be dealt with. It is respectfully recommended that council endeavour to find a solution to divesting themselves of these facilities which currently compete unfairly for tenants in direct competition with private risk taking entrepreneurs! Jason Bailey

First Nations children often face when trying to access health care. In Sioux Lookout, we’re strongly advocating for the completion of the next phase in the hospital, the Meno Ya Win Health Centre, to increase their capacity to care for the sick in the north. The health centre, which was created through a four-party agreement among the municipality, provincial and federal governments, and First Nations in the Sioux Lookout Region, has long helped to ease the health care isolation for many residents in

Sioux Lookout and neighbouring First Nation communities. I look forward to working with them in the future to make the health centre even better. One of the other big health care issues I’ve been pushing for is a new hospital in Kenora. I am encouraged to see the work being done by representatives from Kenora and Sioux Narrows-Nestor Falls, as well as local Indigenous leaders. It has long been understood that the Lake of the Woods District Hospital needs replacing, but only through cooperation with

everyone in the area can we make that hospital a reality. So far we’re off to a good start. As I tour around the riding this summer, I want to hear what you think we need to do to improve health care delivery. I will continue to work, with all levels of government, so northerners have 21st century health care services available to them throughout the riding. If you’d like to arrange a meeting please call 1-866-710-0008. You can also check out our website for more helpful links https:// bnault.liberal.ca/

“and I said to myself, no, I’m not going to be next. It was hot and a couple of times I was kind of drifting off in the heat. But I made it. It was all very colourful. I liked the military band and everyone was so professional. It all looked really good.” General Cadden, the departing commander, praised the role of the Canadian Rangers in northern Ontario, saying they served their communities and Canada with professionalism. Lieutenant-Colonel Matthew Richardson, commanding officer of the 3rd Canadian Ranger Patrol Group, which commands the 630 Rangers in 23 First Nations in northern Ontario, said giving the two Rangers from Lac Seul such a prominent position in the ceremony recognized

the importance of the Rangers, who are parttime army reservists, to the Canadian Army. Cpl. Brisket said it was the first time she had participated in such a big military event. “It was good,” she said. “Yes, it was hot but I enjoyed it.

It was different. It was definitely worth coming to and being a part of it.” (Sergeant Peter Moon is the public affairs ranger for the 3rd Canadian Ranger Patrol Group at Canadian Forces Base Borden.)

Q U AY- W U K ( W o m e n ’ s Group) in Sioux Lookout is launching a new, first of its kind project, to create a community response protocol and resources to address elder abuse in a culturally sensitive manner. Entitled Our Elders, Our Strength, the project was launched June 29 at the Nishnawbe-Gamik Friendship Centre. The project is funded by the New Horizons for Seniors Program. Although being developed to address elder abuse in the 31 communities Equaywuk serves, according to Equay-wuk acting director Darlene Angeconeb, “The events will be open for any elder to attend if they choose to do so.” She added, “The finished protocol would be presented to agencies/ workers at some point and, yes, could be used by workers to help elders who want to report abuse or for referrals to the proper agencies (i.e. nursing station). “Our Elders, Our Strength is the first of its kind in northwestern

Ontario,” Angeconeb explained. “This exciting project will develop a network with local Sioux Lookout organizations and surrounding First Nation communities to create a community response protocol and culturally appropriate resources to address elder abuse. “Elder abuse is a very serious issue in many of our communities, and is known to have detrimental effects in the health of our elders. In the northwest, and especially for the remote communities, we lack the proper resources and supports to effectively deal with this problem. This is why Equay-wuk and its project partners are pleased to be part of this important project.” A public awareness campaign will be developed through the program for people living in remote, northern First Nation communities. “We shall be using the local newspaper, the Wawatay newspaper, and the Wawatay radio. The Wawatay information would be translated into Oji-Cree as well,” Angeconeb said. Asked about the protocols to be

developed, she said, “We hope to include First Nations organizations and service providers in Sioux Lookout and in the remote communities. i.e. Who does one call to report elder abuse? The police (OPP or NAPS) or community service providers (such as community wellness, mental health, nurse, Nadaap).” The hope is for the protocol to be in place by late fall. Angeconeb concluded, “Equay-wuk develops many resource materials on family/domestic violence, community wellness resources, positive parenting, women’s wellness, women in leadership, etc. “While, there are elder abuse materials for non-aboriginals in the mainstream, we did notice that there were no culturally appropriate materials on elder abuse for this area. Life in the remote north is very different than in the southern mainstream and elders in the north would have different concerns. This is what makes the project unique and much needed. “One of the other factors which make the project necessary

is the issue of Indian Residential Schools (IRS). The issue of abuse of elders is connected to the IRS common experience payments, and the other Alternative Dispute Resolution process (ADR) and the Independent Assessment Process (IAP). Elders were taken advantage of by the lawyers, family, and friends during the IRS settlements. The abuse issues also stem from Indian Residential Schools so that abuse within the

Funding support for local women’s shelters, agencies Shayla Bradley Staff Writer

H E L T E R S delivering services to women and children in the Sioux Lookout area are receiving support from the Ontario government, as announced July 6. The province is investing in 16 projects through the Rural Realities Fund for agencies and shelters

in rural, remote, and northern communities, including two local initiatives. Crisis Homes Inc. is developing its Bridging Northern Shelters to Enhance Services project in the Sioux Lookout, Kenora, Thunder Bay, Dryden, and Marathon areas with the support of a $134,000, twoyear grant. The project will enable women and

children in shelters to access services and maintain their connections to home, their community, and elders through video conferencing. The First Step Women’s Shelter is pursuing a First Nation Community Liaison Project in Sioux Lookout and Red Lake with $156,000 over two years. The project will

WANT ADS - Pages 8 to 11, 13, 16 & 17

enable staff to travel to northern communities to provide education and training on violence against women, raising awareness of services, building partnerships, and promoting a better understanding of the communities. The creation of the Rural Realities Fund was a recommendation stemming from a provincial roundtable on violence against women. “These projects will help to ensure that women and their children experiencing violence in their homes in rural, remote, and northern communities have access to the help and support they

need,” said Minister of Community and Social Services Helena Jaczek. “I am confident that the projects we have selected will lead to innovative local solutions that address some of the unique challenges agencies face in serving women.” “Every woman deserves to live free from the fear of violence in her home and community,” commented Tracy MacCharles, minister responsible for women’s issues. “Women in rural and isolated communities who have experienced violence will now have better access to the supports they need to

help them live safely and rebuild their lives.” “The safety and wellbeing of women and children living in rural communities is important to this government,” said Jeff Leal, minister of agriculture, food and rural affairs. “Through initiatives like the Rural Realities Fund we are helping to ensure that victims of domestic violence have access to safe shelters and to the services they need regardless of where they live. We are listening and working together with rural residents to make rural Ontario a desirable place to live, work, and raise a family.”

NAN welcomes announcement of Jordan’s Principle funding Shayla Bradley Staff Writer

HE federal government has committed to implementing Jordan’s Principle, announcing funding for timely health care. Jordan’s Principle is child-first, designed to resolve jurisdictional issues for government services provided to First Nations children, between federal and provincial or territorial governments. The principle says that if a child requires health care, that care should be provided first, and any jurisdictional dispute can be dealt with later. The Ministry of

Indigenous and Northern Affairs was required to apprise the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal of how it funds child welfare services, after the tribunal determined the existing system discriminates against children living on reserves. Minister of Health Jane Philpott and Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Carolyn Bennett issued a joint statement July 6. “The government of Canada has listened to the concerns raised by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal and our First Nations partners regarding Jordan’s Principle. There is no question – we

believe children must receive the health care and social services they need, when they need them. “Today, we are responding to these concerns and announcing a new approach to implement Jordan’s Principle. This approach will put the needs of children first and ensure that First Nations children living on-reserve receive the health and social services they need in a timely manner. “The government of Canada has committed up to $382 million in new funding to provide support to this new approach and broader definition of Jordan’s

Principle. This funding will be used to enhance service coordination and ensure service access resolution so that children’s needs are assessed and responded to quickly. “Engagement is another important part of the new approach to Jordan’s Principle. Both Health Canada and Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada are actively engaging with First Nations and jurisdictional partners to establish what supports are needed as well as to find ways to enhance service coordination and prevent delays in receiving health care and

social services. “Together, we remain fully committed to meeting this vital goal of responding to the needs of First Nations children living on-reserve and honouring the true spirit of Jordan’s Principle.” Nishnawbe Aski Nation (NAN) Deputy Grand Chief Derek Fox welcomed the announcement. “Many First Nation children, especially in our remote communities, experience unnecessary delays accessing care and services due to intergovernmental and jurisdictional disputes,” said Fox. “Jordan’s Principle is

designed to eliminate this, and we are pleased the federal government has committed funding towards its implementation. We now look to the government of Ontario to join this process and come to the table with their federal counterparts to ensure that children in all NAN First Nations have access to the same level of care and services as all children across Ontario and Canada.” Full implementation of Jordan’s Principle by all levels of government is one of the Calls to Action in the final report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

Slate Falls project will address water safety, access

Shayla Bradley Staff Writer

NDIGENOUS and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) has approved a water project in Slate Falls First Nation. Chief Lorraine Crane has signed an agreement for the construction of

an $11.6-million water treatment plant and distribution system, as well as community fire safety infrastructure. “Slate Falls First Nation has been on boil water advisories for 12 years and we are pleased that an agreement for this project has finally

been reached,” said NAN Grand Chief Alvin Fiddler. “Chief and council have overcome many challenges to get this project approved by the federal government and we hope that work will get underway as quickly as possible. We are pleased that Slate

Falls will finally have access to a reliable supply of water, and we hope that this investment in vital community infrastructure continues across NAN territory.” Currently, water in the community is distributed by 11 pump houses built in 1998, all of which

have been subject to BWAs since 2004. “Nearly all NAN First Nations are in need of major capital investments in their water systems, and we have asked the federal government to prioritize these projects so that our people can access

safe drinking water like the rest of Canada,” said Fiddler. “Access to clean water is a basic human right, and it is our expectation that this government will meet its commitment to eliminate all First Nation boil water advisories in five years.”

Hockey academy program scores big with students

T made headlines locally, regionally, provincially, and nationally when it launched last fall and it earned the KeewatinPatricia District School Board (KPDSB) an award from Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities. The KPDSB Hockey Canada Skills Academies program has wrapped up for the season and, although final results are still being assessed and a few logistical issues still need to be ironed out, the program

Elizabeth District High School (QEDHS). Through the program, students are provided with hockey equipment at no charge and are given on-ice instruction in Canada’s national winter sport. The learning doesn’t stop there. Hockey is also being referenced in the classroom when studying subjects such as math, science, and health and wellness. SMPS Grade 8 teacher Steve Dumonski cocoordinates the program and, reflecting back on the season past, shared, “I think it ran pretty good. We had a lot of kinks and logistical things to iron out and

we’re still working through those but overall, the program went pretty smoothly. “I guess the biggest thing is just the kids’ reaction to it. They just loved it which is why we’re doing it. I think it was successful with the things we were trying to accomplish, like the attendance going up. We know that went up with our hockey students. It absolutely did. Another thing has been just their overall engagement in school. Their learning skills, I think, have improved somewhat.” Incorporating hockey into the classroom has gone well. “Through the NHLPA

(National Hockey League Players’ Association) and Toronto Maple Leafs, they have a program called Future Goals. The kids go online and learn about the volume of the ice surface, how skates and sticks are made, and they learn about the science and the math behind it, connecting hockey to math and science and the kids just love it,” Dumonski said. He added, “What we try to do is math activities related to hockey. I was fortunate in that I had a class where almost all the kids were in hockey so they’re interested in it. We’re trying to make connections and that will be a role for Kailey (McMaster, Grade 7 teacher and program co-coordinator) and I next year too, helping classroom teachers make the connection to hockey, what activities they can do to get the engagement up.” Increasing student engagement was a goal of the program and Dumonski believes the program is succeeding in that. “All the kids know if they’re not doing exactly what they have to do in the school, there’s a chance they may not go to hockey. We don’t want to hold that over their heads, but that’s just the reality. You have to do this, to get this. It’s working. The kids are engaged.” He said students are working hard to keep their grades up because they love the sport. “There are students I know in my class and a few students in other classes where we’ve seen that they weren’t coming to school regularly. They were late all the time. That’s totally changed

around. They’re really trying with their school work and really trying on the ice when they’re out there so it’s working for a lot of our kids… I think the goals we set out, we’re starting to hit them. I think next year with all the logistics kind of ironed out, we can really focus on those things.” Numbers in the program fluctuated as students moved away or new students came to the school. The season ended with 96 students enrolled in the program. “Our numbers for next year are looking like they’ll be about the same, probably more, so it’s exciting,” Dumonski said. The program is for students in Grades 1 to 8. When the program picks up again this fall, kindergarten students will also be getting on the ice. “There is going to be a skating program implemented in the kindergarten classes, but that will be once or twice a month probably,” Dumonski explained. “It’s introducing kids who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity (to play hockey). We’ve seen kids who have never played in Grade 8, who have never played hockey or just skated a few times, just fall in love with the game. That’s really exciting,” Dumonski said. If he sounds passionate about the program and hockey in general, that’s because he truly is. Dumonski played several years of hockey at the major-junior level in the Ontario Hockey League as well as the East Coast Hockey League. Hockey has been a big part of his life since he

was a teenager. “Hockey, I guess I always say it saved me. I was one of those teens that wasn’t in a good place and I had a hockey coach kind of talk to me a few times and I changed things around. I know how hockey can do that for kids and that’s why we’re doing the program,” he confided. Coming from that kind of background, Dumonski said using the sport he loves as a vehicle for student learning has been an amazing experience. Dumonski said the program is allowing him to do for kids, what was done for him. “It’s really satisfying. My wife always says you can’t save them all, but you can try. If we reach a few of them and get them back on the right path, it’s worth it and I think hockey is a great way. In Canada not everyone loves hockey, but most of us are passionate about it and if I can bring that passion into the classroom and into our school and instill those values into the kids, then yeah, I think it’s great.” Introducing kids to the sport he loves and helping them build

their skills has been a great experience Dumonski shared. “It just builds their confidence and they start thinking about what else is out there for me? What else can I try? Hopefully a lot of our Grade 8s go to the high school and join a club; maybe they go to the welding class or whatever and find whatever they’re passionate about. I think the biggest thing I want from this program is for the kids to have that confidence to believe in themselves; that they can do whatever they want. It might take a lot of hard work and they may fall down a whole bunch of times, but they can just get back up and keep going. If we can instill that in them, then they’ll be successful.” According to Dumonski, the program has been well received by both boys and girls. “I was looking at the numbers and its right around a 60 (boys), 40 (girls) split. Lots of girls actually joined. A lot of new girls who have never played joined this year, which is great. It’s great seeing the confidence in them.” Students had good things to say about

the program. Cyleigh Kejick, who will be heading to Grade 8 this fall, said the program was great. “It was fun hanging out with other kids and friends and being able to teach the new students and seeing them progress.” Kejick has been in hockey for almost 10 years and enjoys helping other students learn the sport. “I was really excited for Tuesdays and Fridays because I got to play hockey and I had a really fun time.” Kejick added, “It makes me want to come to school even more… It’s been fun, especially with Mr. Dumonski because he’s been in professional hockey leagues. He was able to tell us his mistakes and how he fixed them so we wouldn’t make those mistakes, and Mrs. McMaster was a hockey player as well.” Wenonah Wesley, Grade 7, also enjoyed being in the program. Last season was her first time playing hockey.

UPPORTING Indian Residential School (IRS) survivors and helping the people of Fort McMurray, Alberta get back on their feet were the focus of two recently completed walks. Stanley Barkman, 26, a Sachigo Lake First Nation band member, walked from Sioux Lookout to Fort McMurray to help victims of the wild fire which blazed through the community. He set out from Sioux Lookout on May 9 and covered over 2000 kilometres. His walk captured national attention and raised over $20,000. No stranger to long

walks, in 2011 Barkman walked from Sachigo Lake First Nation to Sioux Lookout to raise funds for a CT scanner for the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre. Another effort, the 10 Day Sacred Walk for Healing and Reconciliation in Support of Residential School Survivors and Descendants finished in Kenora on June 21, National Aboriginal Day. The walk was spearheaded by Lac Seul First Nation elder Fred Thomas. The idea for the walk came to him in a dream and he was told it was a vision for a walk. Darlene Angeconeb was one of the people who took part in the

walk. She was also the chairperson of the 10 Day Sacred Walk Working Group, as well as one of the event organizers, coordinator, and banking/ finance person. “I felt that many former residential school students were elderly or deceased and therefore could not walk. So, while I could still walk (even though I have diabetes and use insulin, three needles per day), I chose to walk for those who couldn’t.” She commented on the walk, “I liked and supported the idea immediately because of the healing and reconciliation aspects of this walk. It was an appealing idea. To heal by walking and praying and to support reconciliation by creating public awareness of the residential school issue through the walk felt good and I hope future walks will result from this.” According to a poster advertising the walk, “This walk is especially for those Survivors who have had to face hardships from alleged wrongdoings by their legal advisors.” Asked to elaborate on that, Angeconeb explained, “Many IRS students/claimants were confused by the process and many were made to sign documents that were not explained. They did not realize the amount of fees the lawyer would take from their settlements. They also had to tell and retell their stories of abuse in the process. They were continually re-victimized in the process. Some lawyers also stole funds as a result of the confusion and stress created by the IRS process. “We walked, part of it anyway, because there were injustices for many survivors. As we walked, we were told by survivors what happened when dealing with their lawyers. There is most likely no remedy for many of them. We also called for a review and evaluation of the IRS Agreement. This is supported by First Nation organizations.” A ceremony was

held June 11, the day before the walk officially got underway. The walk was sponsored by Lac Seul First Nation. People were encouraged to come and join the walk and take part for as long as they wished. “The walk began June 11 from the old St. Joes Indian Residential School to the Dennis Franklin Cromarty High School. Some hand drummers/ elders came to lend their support and said prayers for the walk. It was attended by IRS survivors living in Thunder Bay and by youth of the multicultural centre, a small group, as most local First Nations youth were attending a NAN youth camp at the Quetico. I’d say there

were about 25 people.” The walk officially got underway June 12 in Shabaqua and concluded June 21 in Kenora. Angeconeb shared, “In Kenora on Aboriginal Day, the 10 Day Sacred Walk proceeded from the park with the big walleye into the pavilion on harbour front. We were honoured at Aboriginal Day in Kenora by leading in the grand entry for the pow wow at 1:30 p.m. An honour song was sung by drummers for the 10 Day Sacred Walk. We sat at tables that were designated for the walkers and Fred Thomas, Garnet Angeconeb spoke about healing and reconciliation to those in attendance. Walkers attended the pow wow and the feast and

entertainment during the evening.” Looking back on the walk, Angeconeb said, “My thoughts on the walk had a lot to do with healing. Healing for self, our people, and communities. I missed relatives who had passed on and were not able to see what had happened with the IRS settlement (my dad, Andrew Angeconeb) and most recently my aunt and uncle (Clara and Don Carroll). I felt they were with me in spirit during the walk. “I also thought about how our communities can heal from the many social problems they face every day. Suicides, depression, poverty, alcohol and drug problems, child abuse, lack of empowerment... Continued on page 20

Fred Thomas and Garnet Angeconeb spoke about healing and reconciliation the education curriculum at all levels. Some will say it’s not our fault. It wasn’t my fault either that I had to go to an Indian Residential School. I would say that reconciliation would have to be approached with the sense of responsibility. I, as a residential school student, will be responsible to create more awareness of

How can we live in a country that has the disparity of extreme poverty and profound opulence/riches. There seems to be a financial/ economic inequality that exists. “I also thought about how Canadians see reconciliation. I know there is not much awareness and should be something that is in

the issue and to be a responsible citizen. A non-aboriginal should also be responsible to learn the true history of this country, accepting the history and to help by making things better however they can. I think we all have a responsibility to our society, no matter who you are. “When we had morning circles

Thank you to the elders and other individuals on the walk. “One thing we also learned was about ourselves. Many of us had not met before

Other days were for elders gone/those still with us, missing children of residential schools, injustice to IRS survivors, justice for our people and communities.” She concluded, “I learned about my own

Province hopes to get people hooked on fishing Tim Brody Associate Editor

A N A D I A N residents got a chance to try fishing licence-free last week during Family Fishing Week, and that’s good news for the sport, according to a local businessman. Cory Lago of Al’s Sports Excellence shared, “Both the winter

ice fishing weekend and the Family Fishing Week offer Canadian residents the opportunity to fish in Ontario under a conservation limit. This will give people a chance to try fishing for the first time or take the family out. It is a popular promotion to get people involved in the sport of fishing. “It is important for

“Whether you’re completely new to fishing or you’ve been doing it for years, it’s a wonderful way to connect with nature, enjoy this province’s great outdoors, and spend time with your family or friends,” concluded Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry spokesperson Kathryn McGarry.

us at Al’s Sports to be aware of these events and when they are happening so that we can let people know.” Lago, also president of the Sioux Lookout Anglers and Hunters, added, “SLAH would like people to take advantage of these opportunities to try fishing or getting the family out.”

Obituaries T

BEVERLY E. HALL (nee Magas) 1942 - 2016

he family and friends of Beverly Hall are sad to announce her sudden passing on Sunday, June 26, 2016 while in the hospital in Sioux Lookout. Bev is survived by her partner Donald Wright, her brother Ronald Magas (Kitty), her niece Jacqueline and her children, her sistersin-law Marilyn and Shirley and their families, and large circle of friends. She was predeceased by her parents John and Kathleen (Swain) Magas. Growing up in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, surrounded by many aunts, uncles and cousins, Bev had a keen interest in family.

Although Bev left home to go to the University of New Brunswick earning a Bachelor of Business Administration, she always looked forward to seeing her family. After earning a Bachelor of Education at the University of Toronto, Bev taught for 10 years in Toronto. After a brief break from teaching and one year of trying life on PEI, Bev was offered a position at Queen Elizabeth District High School teaching business subjects. She moved to Sioux Lookout in the summer of 1976 and spent several months living in a motel until she purchased her house on

8th Avenue. It was in Sioux Lookout that Bev met Don and together they made many long lasting friendships. Bev was a strong believer in the benefits of a good education. In her early years at Queen Elizabeth DHS, she was instrumental in maintaining a strong attendance policy. Bev was the president of the local branch of OSSTF for several years in the 1980s. Bev became the department head for Business and then the vice principal of QEDHS. Her first principal position was in Ignace and finally she returned to QE as the principal in 1997, retiring

in 2003. Bev loved living in Sioux Lookout and over the years she organized and ran a wine club, a gourmet club, and spent time in the outdoors enjoying swimming, fishing, boating, and snowmobiling. She belonged to the genealogy club, the Senior’s Center, and Beta Sigma Phi. She loved to play bridge. Before her retirement, Bev and Don purchased a home on Abram Lake so they were able to enjoy the outdoors every day. Once retired, Bev took a genealogy trip to the Ukraine which led her to research and produce a book about her

Ukrainian ancestors and their settlement in the Montreal area. Bev was always an avid traveler, visiting Australia, Thailand, Europe, England and Scotland, the US, South America and Mexico and the Caribbean. Mexico held a special place in Bev’s heart and since retirement Bev and Don spent several months during the winter in La Penita, Mexico. She was looking forward to making that trip again this winter. A celebration of Bev’s life took place on Thursday, July 7th, at St. Mary’s Anglican Church, King St., Sioux Lookout, at 10:00 a.m.
