TREATY UPDATE

This edition in Yo News is written to help to inform community members about activities the Gwa’sala‘Nakwaxda’xw Nations Treaty Team has been involved with over the past few months.

Negotiations:

Negotiations have continued to be scheduled on a monthly basis. Meetings, called Main table Meetings are held between Negotiation Teams of the Federal (Canada), Provincial (BC) and us, the Gwa’sala‘Nakwaxda’xw Nations. Members of our GN negotiation team include, in addition to myself, Chiefs: Paddy Walkus, Willie Walkus, and Tom Henderson. Councilors: Ernie Henderson and Gary Walkus.

We prepared a draft “land Counter offer” to table with the two other governments. As you may recall, the governments tabled a “land/cash offer” to us last November 27, 2014 at a meeting of our community at the Wakas Hall.

In addition to the areas that are essential because of their cultural/hereditary and sacred significance, we stress the necessity of land to meet our communities’ economic goals. In studies we have found that logging companies have logged many very significant amounts causing us to fear few trees will remain for our children and their children in the future.

We stress the need to have much more area (than was “offered”) so that we can use our lands and the natural resources on them in ways that are important to us. We need access to trees to meet our housing needs, access to timber for viable economic use, access to forest for non-timber uses such as food gathering, bark , carving, canoes, weaving, etc. We need access to trees and wood fibre for cultural purposes such as to build a Bighouse here in Tsulquate as well as in our homelands of Ba’as and Takush.

We explain to the governments that we as Gwa’sala-‘Nakwaxda’xw Nations have our own ways and that a treaty should help us to continue our ways such that our communities will grow and thrive for all the generations following us. Our lands/seas and resources made our ancestors and Nations strong and they left us a legacy and responsibility to carry forward.

Family Meetings:

PAGE 3

GWA’SALA-’NAKWAXDA’XW NATIONS YO! NEWS

06/1/2015


These meetings held with families of our Nations have been taking place since December 2014. To Date we have met with 7 – 8 different family grouping of the Gwa’sala and ‘Nakwaxda’xw.

The purpose of Family Meetings is to inform and educate about the Treaty Process, as well as to acknowledge our hereditary families and Chiefs. Our goal is to insure that family members have a chance to learn by receiving materials distributed, asking questions and hearing from those involved with the Treaty Team.

The meetings have been well attended and I am pleased to see those with concerns and questions are speaking out. These meetings will continue and after every family has had an opportunity for one meeting, we will begin again with the families we started with until our community is informed and prepared to consider an AIP (agreement in principle) vote and a move to the next, stage 5 of treaty negotiations.

Comments:

Our Treaty Office continues to support many community initiatives in addition to the above. These include: Support to Elders (Coordinator/Council/Janitorial), Youth (Digital Film Projects) (Technology for GN School), Community/Family support, Team support, Bighouse Planning, and Food Security/nutrition. Soon we will be hiring in the community to find a person to assist with a renewed Comprehensive Community Plan (CCP), we have 2 TRMs (Treaty Related Measures)in the homelands during the next few months to carry out necessary studies and work toward opportunities for members to live/work/visit once again in the homelands should they chose. Also, we work with Chief and Council to offer workshops on governance and other subjects Council feel is necessary to improve their ability to better serve the community now and into the future.

Contact: Please don’t hesitate to contact the Treaty Office, 250-949-8424 or the Band office should you have questions about any of the above.

Update prepared by: Colleen Hemphill, Chief Negotiator, Gwa’sala-‘Nakwaxda’xw Nations Treaty Team.

Yo Wiksas! First of all, the Elders would like to send their deepest heart felt condolences to Terry's family & friends. He was a very well respected man that was always willing to lend a helping hand to his fullest capabilities. He will be greatly missed by many. The Elder's Program has been on a slow pace over the last few weeks. This being noted, Ernie, Brian & I have been doing some outside work to the building. We have started off with the deck. Our next big project will be painting the entire building. Brian has done some work to the ramp to make it safer for those that have scooters and for when it is wet. We have had a community member come forth with some video footage of kids horsing around the Elder's Center over the weekends. Please be advised, there are surveillance cameras all around the building now. Please teach your children to respect other people's property. This building belongs to our Elders. It needs to be respected as you would respect their homes. Trespassers will be dealt with in an orderly manner. The Elders trip is well under way. We have received many phone calls and or messages about renting the Elder's Center for personal use. The Elders have made a motion back in November of 2013 to close their building to the Community for personal functions. It is now only open to staff of the Administration building for work related functions and Elder's activities. Their reasoning is for all the past vandalism and break & entering, where two TVs have been stolen. We hope you all understand and respect their decision. Tuesdays: Wellness Day with Selina & Tracey 12pm Wednesdays: Elder's Day luncheon 12pm - cooking starts at 10am Fridays: ECM 10am Gilakasla Silena George, Elder's Coordinator

Vision Clinic Please get your forms in as soon as you can. There was a form in the Gwa’sala-‘Nakwaxda’xw Health & Family Services newsletter as well as in this one. These forms need to be faxed to ITHA for approval then to the optometry clinic in New Westminster.

This is open to community members. Those under 19 and over 64 should be getting checked every year. Those with chronic diseases should also have regular check ups. Please submit your form if you have diabetes, high blood pressure or other chronic diseases or ocular diseases.

Fitness Programs – Aboriginal Day of Wellness I received a suggestion from a band member to take a picture of before and after because your body could see a big change in just a month’s time. That’s a great idea! If you want, we can take your picture before.

Let’s make this a great month.

The pool will be closing on Saturday, June 13 and reopening Monday, August 10.
