Jordan’s Principle no longer providing emergency funding
that caregivers can access to help finance access to government services.
Some of the changes to Jordan’s Principle include:
The Six Nations of the Grand River Jordan's Principle Team says it will no longer be able to offer emergency funding for shelter, clothing, food and other needs.
Six Nations of the Grand River (SNGR) said in a press release Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) is implementing changes to operating procedures related to processing requests under Jordan's Principle.
“We have not received a decision on emergency funds for 2024/2025,” SNGR said. “While we are no longer able to provide financial support for pending applications until they are approved by ISC, we are still able to support approved individual applications.”
Jordan’s Principle is a human rights principle established by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal to make sure that First Nations children do not face gaps, delays or denials in accessing government services because of their identity as First Nations children.
Jordan’s Principle includes a federal fund
-Each new request will be considered on a caseby-case basis. An existing or previously approved request does not guarantee that a request for new funding will be renewed or approved.
-Requests must show how the requested product, service, or support meets the distinct needs of the First Nations child and how the child either experienced gaps or delays in accessing government services or was denied an existing government service because of their identity as a First Nations child.
The press release noted that the following items will not be approved
-Purchase, construction, or structural renovations of homes
-Requests to support sporting events or elite/ competitive sport-related training unless linked to the specific health, social, or educational needs of the First Nations child
-International travel, unless related to an exceptional medical need of the First Nations child.
-Non-medical sup-
ports such as travel costs, non-medical respite care, child care, clothing, furniture and vehicles, unless accompanied by a letter of support from a medical professional
-The professional must be able to provide a child-specific recommendation based on their professional designation and their knowledge of the First Nation child's specific needs.
-School-related requests, unless linked to the specific health, social, or educational need of the First Nations child
-Supports to school boards off-reserve and private schools will be redirected to provincial school boards, or other existing provincial and federally-funded programs.
-Automatic administrative fees within group requests, including salaries, service fees, and overhead costs.
SNGR is urging caregivers to clearly explain how the requested product, service, or support will address the child's specific health, social, or educational needs and to include supporting documentation and accompanied by a letter of support that demonstrates how the requested prod-
Jordan’s Principle funding continued from
uct, service, or support links directly to the child's unmet health, social, or educational needs.
Some of those letters of support can come from a health professional, educational professional, or an Elder or Knowledge Keeper, depending on their expertise as it relates to their ability to determine the unmet needs of the child and the supports required.
The person must be within the child's circle of care, SNGR notes.
And for professionals providing a letter of support, this should be made within their scope of practice.
“If you are requesting additional funding to extend services for the child, updated letters of support are required to support the child's changing needs or to demonstrate a need for continued supports or services.”
Parents are also encouraged to include any relevant assessments or diagnoses and provide a breakdown of the costs associated with the request.
First Nations advocacy organizations such as the Assembly of First Nations, have been sounding the alarm over backlogs in Jordan’s Principle funding since last fall.
The family of the child the principle is named after, Jordan River Anderson, has taken to social media to condemn abuse of the program, saying it’s no longer working as intended.
Ernest Anderson, Jordan’s father, says the program is not serving his son’s memory well.
“If your kid was to be used like that, you wouldn’t like it.”
Jordan, of Norway House Cree First Nation, died in 2005 at a hospital in Winnipeg after the federal and provincial government couldn’t agree on who was responsible for the boy’s care.
Federal government statistics show that urgent requests grew by 900 percent from 2021 to 2023.
More than 10,000 funding requests a year are made through Jordan’s Principle.
Canada agrees to $30M advance payment for MCFN land claim
Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs
Canada
JACE KOBLUN jace@tworowtimes.com
The Canadian government said Canada remains committed to improving relationships with Indigenous people and working with them to advance their rights.
Ogimaa-Kwe (chief) Claire Sault of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation (MCFN) and Honourable Gary Anandasangaree, Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs and Minister responsible for the Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency, announced an agreement on March 2 in which Canada will make an advance payment of $30-million to be applied against a future resolution of the MCFN’s Treaty 22 and Treaty 23 specific claim.
“Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation see this advance payment as a good-faith gesture by Canada, and as evidence
of its seriousness to finally settle this 205-year-old Land Claim. Negotiations are making good progress, and it is our hope that a final agreement can be reached, that can be voted on by our membership, late this year or in early 2026,” said Sault.
Canada and the MCFN have been in negotiations to resolve this specific claim since 2022. The claim dates back to 1820 when Canada failed to protect the interests of the First Nation in the surrender and sale of 10,940 acres of the First Nation's reserve land within Treaties 22 and 23.
Innovative approaches including the Specific Claims Advance Payment Framework allow more timely access to compensation for First Nations to address historical wrongs at an earlier stage in the specific claims process. They also demonstrate the Government of Canada's ongoing commitment to reconciliation and advancing First Nation rights to self-determination, in-
cluding under the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
“As we celebrate this advance payment agreement, we reaffirm Canada's commitment to addressing past wrongs. This agreement enables the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation to access settlement funds earlier on in the specific claims process. It is our hope that this will create new opportunities to move forward together in the spirit of respect and partnership,” said Anandasangaree.
The Canadian government believes that the best way to address outstanding specific claims and advance reconciliation with First Nations is through negotiation and dialogue. Negotiated settlements help address past wrongs, honour treaty and legal obligations, and renew relationships with First Nations for the benefit of all people living in Canada.

For more than a century, International Women’s Day (IWD) has provided an important opportunity for groups worldwide advocating for gender equality.
As Gloria Steinem, world-renowned feminist, journalist and activist reportedly once said, “The story of women's struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist, nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.”
So how did IWD start?
Many first-wave feminist groups, such as the suffragettes and suffragists, played a foundational role in shaping IWD by championing women's rights, particularly voting rights, and laying the groundwork for broader feminist movements.
Additionally, many feminists, such as Simone de Beauvoir, Virginia Woolf, Betty Friedan, and Gloria Steinem, were educated about gender inequality and rallied support for a better world for women. There are many groups and events that have actively forged IWD to become what it is today, which is a vibrant worldwide movement where everyone is welcome and included to help advance gender quality.
Many influences have contributed to the rise, popularity, and mainstreaming of IWD:

Canadian Council for Indigenous Business statement on U.S. tariff implementation
lenges. This moment is no different.
The Canadian Council for Indigenous Business (CCIB) firmly opposes the unjustified tariffs imposed by the United States, which threaten to undermine Canadian and Indigenous economic growth and the principles of fair and equitable trade.
As Indigenous people, we have a long and proud history of trade that predates any border on Turtle Island. We understand very well how to adapt, advocate, and support one another through chal-
Over the past 30 days, CCIB has been swiftly mobilizing to support all of our members. We have:
Engaged with Global Affairs Canada and our friends in potential export markets to advocate for Indigenous business interests and to enable new export opportunities.
Met with Indigenous leaders across the country to both share our learnings and to bring more Indigenous perspectives to policy discussions.
Continued to advocate for Indigenous elected leaders to be at discussions with respect to
rights under Section 35, UNDRIP and the Jay Treaty.
Pushed for the continued prioritization of Indigenous procurement at all levels of government.
Joined forces with industry, government and Canadians providing practical advice and input to ensure Indigenous businesses were not left behind.
Advocated for the reduction of internal trade barriers, which will help Indigenous businesses remain competitive and resilient.
Shared these messages in the Canadian media across the country to
ensure the Indigenous economy remains an important consideration.
In the coming days, we will be launching several initiatives to provide tangible support:
Buy Indigenous Campaign: Encouraging consumers, corporations, and governments to prioritize Indigenous products and services and providing resources to effectively and consistently share that message.
Tariff Support Page: Similar to our COVID-19 resource hub, this page will provide up-to-date information on tariffs, available resources, and support programs.
Access to Support Programs: We will work to ensure any government or industry-led programs to mitigate tariff impacts are accessible to Indigenous businesses.
We will continue to represent your interests in conversations with all levels of government and business leaders.
Our mission and values have never been more important or more relevant, as we remain committed to advancing economic reconciliation, supporting Indigenous business, and fostering an inclusive economy.
We encourage you to stay connected, share your
concerns, and leverage the resources we are putting in place. Together, we are stronger.
CCIB is committed to the full participation of Indigenous peoples in Canada’s economy. As a national, non-partisan association, its mission is to promote, strengthen and enhance a prosperous Indigenous economy through the fostering of business relationships, opportunities, and awareness. CCIB offers knowledge, resources, and programs to its members to cultivate economic opportunities for Indigenous peoples and businesses across Canada.

Buffy Sainte-Marie lost two jubilee medals as part of Order of Canada cancellation:
By David Friend
The recent termination of Buffy Sainte-Marie's Order of Canada came with the cancellation of two additional Canadian honours.
A representative for Rideau Hall says jubilee medals awarded to the singer-songwriter in 2002 and 2012 were also stripped from her since both were based on her membership to the Order of Canada.
Sainte-Marie's appointment was cancelled in an ordinance signed by Gov. Gen. Mary Simon on Jan. 3. Details about the medals were not previously shared.
Rideau Hall says Sainte-Marie also lost the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal, which commemorated the 50th anniversary of the queen's ascension to the throne, as well as the Diamond Jubilee medal presented for the 60th anniversary.
Rideau Hall
This comes more than a year after a CBC investigative report questioned the musician's Indigenous heritage and found a birth certificate that indicated she was born in 1941 in Massachusetts.
Sainte-Marie tells The
Canadian Press in a statement that she never lied about her identity but has returned her medals "with a good heart."
This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 4, 2025.
Preference will be given to candidates who have a valid Ontario College of Teachers’ Certificate (OCT) of Qualification, however, applications will also be accepted from those working towards their OCT or have experience in language instruction.
Candidates must have verbal proficiency in either Ojibway, Mohawk or Cayuga language. In addition, preference will be given to candidates who have attained intermediate level, both written and verbal, in Ojibway, Mohawk or Cayuga language according to the American Council on the teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) proficiency guidelines. It is also necessary to have working knowledge of the Anishinaabe and/or Haudenosaunee history and culture.

It doesn’t take a special day to bring you to my mind
The strong bond we had between us, would be so very hard to find.
If I could have one wish today and that wish could come true.
It would simply be to have you here and spend sometime with you
Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure
