A monument with a plaque recognizing the role bush planes played in Canada’s residential school system was unveiled at Lions Park overlooking the Burntwood River in Thompson Oct. 10, near a restored float plane erected by Spirit Way in 2008 as a tribute to northern aviation and its role in opening up Manitoba’s north for economic development.

“The whole purpose is to just tell the many stories of this plane,” said Thompson Urban Aboriginal Strategy chair Charlene Lafreniere. “[Indigenous children] were picked up for residential school, they were picked up for the ’60s scoop, they were picked up for TB facilities, so this plane doesn’t bring great feelings to everybody and so we need to honour that. It’s not about bashing an industry, it’s about telling the many

stories and moving towards transforming and tolerance, not intolerance and hate.”

“This reflection space is dedicated to the Indigenous children who were put on bush planes to attend residential schools,” reads the plaque. “As you stand in this space we ask you to reflect on the imagery of bush planes.

We ask you to remember that although they are a symbol of economic opportunity they are also a painful reminder of the residential schools’ legacy.

Take a moment to consider this question: ‘What if it was my child or my grandchild who was taken away on this bush plane?’ Let us remember our shared history in the hopes that we will never again allow government policies to allow any children in Canada to be torn away from the loving arms of their parents, their grandparents, and communities.”

16-year-old arrested after complaint of vehicle break-ins on Cornell Place LEGION LADIES HELP OUT HOCKEY TEAM SPORTS PAGE 6

A 16-year-old male youth was arrested shortly before 1 a.m. Oct. 10 by police responding to a complaint of people breaking into vehicles on Cornell Place in Eastwood.

Thompson RCMP are still looking for a 13-year-old male youth who they intend to arrest for the same incident. Multiple charges are expected to be laid against both suspects.

Okimakanak Grand Chief Garrison Settee said the monument was significant, both as a commemoration of past mistakes and as a signpost towards a brighter future.

“This story is not a very pleasant story for our people,” he said. “It’s a very dark chapter in our history. Today we honour the survivors of the residential school system and those that did not survive, that died in the residential school system. Some are buried in the back of the churches, in the back of the residential schools, in unmarked graves. There’s no monument for them. This is their monument. This is their time to be remembered.”

Attendees read the plaque recognizing the role of bush planes in the residential school system that was unveiled Oct. 10 near Spirit Way’s northern aviation tribute in Thompson’s Lions Park.

That the plaque was erected in partnership with the City of Thompson is significant, said Settee.

“It’s a big step towards reconciliation, meaningful reconciliation, not just rhetoric but we’re actually making those significant steps to reconciliation.”

Mayor Colleen Smook said the symbolism of the bush plane wasn’t considered from all angles when the tribute to aviation was developed.

“Originally this park was planned and then there was talk about a plane to commemorate the opening up of the north and the economic value of the north,” she said.

“Once the plane is up and then you start hearing people talk about the meanings that that plane had for them and there weren’t good feelings for the most part. I think it’s showing that we’re walking the walk in the spirit of reconciliation, not just talking about it. This is just acknowledging our partners in the north and how we feel about the inclusion of everybody in our everyday life. At least you know now that you have acknowledgment, someone’s acknowledging that you were there or your parents or grandparents. It just shows everybody is starting to get on the same page, that we are moving forward.”

One ounce of cocaine seized after Thompson traffic stop A 40-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman from Thompson are facing multiple drug trafficking charges after a traffic stop on Grey Wolf Bay Oct. 9.

RCMP officers pulled the vehicle over at 10:51 p.m. and ended up finding and seizing one ounce of individually bagged cocaine.

‘It’s like a war zone,’ recent break-in victim tells public safety committee

The youth crime wave in Thompson over the past few months is affecting people’s sense of security, a resident whose house was targeted during a spate of residential break-and-enters last week told the city’s public safety committee Oct. 10.

“This is not normal for a community to be like this,” said Aaron Compton. “I’ve got a little girl that’s afraid to sleep in her room. It’s like a war zone.”

Compton said the people responsible should be told to leave town or a curfew imposed to gain control over the situation. Anywhere else, he said, this would be considered a state of emergency.

Thompson RCMP Staff Sgt. Christopher Hastie said police are making extraordinary efforts to catch those responsible, pointing to the fact that RCMP recently got a court order allowing them to publish the name and photo of a 16-year-old suspect from Wabowden.

“It’s very rare to publicize and offender [who is] a young person,” he said.

“We are catching some kids and charging them.”

Seven arrests were made after 11 break-and-enters or attempts were reported in Westwood and Deerwood Oct. 7-8. Five of those arrested were charged. One, who was only 10 years old, could not be, which Hastie admits is frustrating for police and for crime victims.

“Youth crime obviously remains an issue for us,” said Thompson RCMP detachment officer-in-charge Insp. Brian Edmonds, who later responded to a question from Coun. Duncan Wong about whether police are checking vacant houses by saying that they had found one that was being used by youth who may be involved in crime.

“One vacant house did surface during the incidents on Monday night and Tuesday morning that we’re aware of.” Edmonds said.

So far in 2019 there have been 153 more assaults and 17 more break-and-enters than in the first nine months of 2018.

Coun. Les Ellsworth said Thompson has 38 RCMP officers but seems to have enough crime to keep twice that number busy.

“There’s a lot of work out there to be done,” he said.

The mayor, councillors

and city staff met with representatives from Manitoba Justice earlier Oct. 10 to discuss the $300,000 public safety strategy that the provincial government announced last spring would be forthcoming for Thompson.

“From what we heard, it has the minister’s attention,” said city manager Anthony McInnis, who has recently been in touch with former Thompson city manager Randy Patrick, now the chief administrative officer in North Battleford, Sask., about strategies they are using to combat similar programs. Asked if Patrick had said whether North Battleford was having similar problems with youth, McInnis said problems there tended to result from criminals heading to North Battleford to escape their troubles in smaller communities.

“He said most of his was actually related to gangs,” said Mcinnis. “The fallout’s the same.”

“We were clear that this [development of a public safety strategy] needed to happen right away,” said public safety committee chair Coun. Jeff Fountain.

“This is one of our highest priorities.”

NDP candidate announces northern and Indigenous platform Churchill-Keewatinook Aski NDP candidate Niki Ashton, who has represented Northern Manitoba in Parliament since 2008, announced her party’s northern and Indigenous platform Oct. 10 near the Miles Hart Bridge over the Burntwood River at the northern edge of Thompson.

The platform focuses on housing, health care, infrastructure and education, as well as having the federal government fully adopt and implement the United Nations Declarations of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

“That means respect when

it comes to econmic development, when it comes to resource development, when it comes to housing, health care and education,” said Ashton.

Proper infrastructure, particularly for transportation, is vital as climate change affects winter roads, Ashton said.

“We know on a mild October day that climate change is real in our north and nowhere is it more evident than for the communities that rely on the winter road system,” she said.

“Because of climate change, winter roads are becoming less reliable in our north and I am proud that the NDP is committed to partnering with First Nations and building an all-weather road system, rec-

Two women arrested in the Thompson Inn Oct. 12 face charges for drug possession and other offences, RCMP say.

Police attended the hotel around 12:55 a.m. Saturday morning in response to a call about a bar patron punching a staff member. An 18-year-old woman from Thompson was arrested and police discovered cocaine while searching her.

She faces multiple charges including assault, drug possession, resisting arrest and

breaching a court order and was remanded into custody.

About 23 hours later, just before midnight Saturday, Thompson RCMP received a report that a 24-year-old woman was in the Thompson Inn in violation of court release conditions. They arrived and arrested her, discovering cocaine during a search. She faces charges of drug possession and breaching a court order and was remanded into custody.

Drunk driving charges Two drivers were arrested on suspicion of drunk driving in Thompson Oct. 12-13.

Thompson RCMP officers on patrol around 2:30 a.m. Oct. 12 saw a vehicle driving on the wrong side of Mystery Lake Road and conducted a traffic stop. The driver, a 33-year-old woman from Thompson, provided samples of her breath which were more than twice the legal limit of blood-alcohol

content. She was subsequently released to appear in court at a later date.

Police saw a vehicle with no headlights around 10:30 p.m. Oct. 13 near Mystery Lake Road and Selkirk Avenue. Breath samples provided by the driver, a 30-year-old man from Alberta, exceeded the legal limit of blood-alcohol content. He was later released to appear in court on a future date.

Armed youth arrested A 17-year-old armed with a hatchet was arrested Oct. 12 around 10 p.m. after police received reports of an armed youth.

The suspect faces charges for multiple weapons offences and breaches of court orders and was remanded into custody.

Ashton says the NDP is also committed to building a hospital in the fly-in Island Lake region, which has a population of more than 10,000 people.

The party would also launch an inquiry into medical services if elected as Canada’s next government.

“We need to get to the bottom of what’s happening and why so many First Nations people are falling through the cracks,” Ashton said, adding that housing and health care were the two biggest concerns she heard from residents in Gillam and Spilt Lake on her way back from the Oct. 8 debate against Liberal candidate Judy Klassen in Churchill.

“People are very concerned about the gaps they’re seeing federally with medical services but also they way that compounds the provincial cuts

She also said Northern Manitoba residents were disappointed with the performance of Liberal leader Justin Trudeau when it comes to Indigenous issues.

“We’ve heard a lot of broken promises from Justin Trudeau,” Ashton said. “I hear from a lot of people that are very hopeful about the message we’re putting forward.

For the 2019-20 season, an annual flu vaccine is especially important for those at increased risk of serious illness from the flu, their caregivers and close contacts. These include: • People 65 years of age and older • Residents of personal care homes or long-term care facilities • Children six to 59 months of age • Those with chronic illness • Pregnant women • Health care workers and first responders • Regular caregivers of children up to five years of age • Household contacts of anyone at increased risk of serious illness from the flu including those with infants under six months of age and/ or expecting a newborn • Indigenous peoples Manitobans over the age of 65 may also get a pneumococcal shot at the same time as the seasonal flu shot. Most adults only need one pneumococcal shot in their lifetime.
