Nation2Nation builds relationships The recent Nation2Nation Community Forum, hosted both in Kitamaat Village and at the Kitimat Valley Institute, was a chance for industry executives, stakeholders and government leaders to get together to discuss the best possible path forward for responsible economic development with LNG. Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross praised the work of companies like LNG Canada who embraced a working relationship with the Haisla rather than other unspecified companies who did not approach the nation with a similar attitude of wanting to learn.

"They [LNG Canada] sat down and they listened.

And in return, we listened. That's the only way a respectful relationship can happen,” said Ross.

efforts in making our communities a better place to live,” he said.

To that he ties into the efforts of the Northwest BC Resource Benefits Alliance, a coalition of 21 local governments and three regional districts, “all working together to help each other out.”

He sees economic development as something that can complement the natural environment of the Kitimat area and not something which puts it at risk.

"We're still very much supportive of [LNG]. It's not a matter of if, it is it's a matter of when,” he said.

He added, “Just one of the proposed LNG projects in our area would mean new families moving to Ross says the benefits of an LNG project can come Kitimat, new revenues and a chance to improve our to everyone and it’s all of B.C. which will be lifted. infrastructure and amenities.

“Our community members enjoyed some new job opportunities with recent expansion of an industrial facility in our territory but that project is complete now and we’re just waiting for one of the LNG projects to move forward. It would mean our community members living away from our territory could come home and raise their families here. Our community would realize new revenues and our community members would have new job opportunities.

LNG is critical to a positive future for the Haisla Nation.”

Co-hosting the event with Haisla Nation was the District of Kitimat. Mayor Phil Germuth championed the new, stronger relationship with the Haisla community.

“The District of Kitimat is ready and willing to work collaboratively with the Haisla Nation to realize these new opportunities and strengthen our communities.”

Perhaps the most anticipated keynote of the event was from B.C. Premier Christy Clark who attended the second day of the forum.

She said there’s a lot of responsibility on the shoulders of today’s leaders to build a healthy world for our children.

"We want to leave the world a little better for our kids,” she said. That means jobs, a healthy environment and thriving communities.

"We want [our kids] to have the ability to shape He told attendees at Nation2Nation that he recogtheir own destiny. Not be the victims of circumnizes that all communities need to work together to stance." thrive and prosper.

Ultimately that’s what LNG means, she said. It’s a “Our communities must recognize the mutual interway for our children to lead fulfilling lives for themest and work together and support each other in our selves.

Meet the HNC Team From COO to CEO: Getting to know Jason Majore Hello my name is Jason Majore and I was hired as the Chief Operating Officer in November 2012. Council then asked me to take secondment from that position to the Director of Economic Development. We have since changed that title to the Chief Executive Officer, which is the senior person within HNC’s business department.

I am Haida/Metis and grew up in Houston, BC, and moved to Prince George where I attended the College of New Caledonia and received a Diploma in Business Administration and made the Presidents List. I then obtained my Bachelor of Commerce Degree majoring in Accounting from the University of Northern British Columbia. After university my passion to work with First Nation communities became very clear.

Working for First Nation communities can be very challenging for a number of different reasons. The systems have not been set up well by the federal government for us to succeed. There is lateral violence throughout many communities internally and externally because of this. Communities have had problems with nepotism, favoritism, corruption, ugly politics, family feuds, and mismanaged band offices.

I have challenged many band councils, governments, consultants, and industry to have fair treatment of members and staff. I told staff I will support them, so long as they are working in the best interest of the membership. Denial of requests cause some frustration by members, council and staff, but I will do my best to ensure people understand reasons behind decisions.

I have enjoyed working with the Haisla and feel we are on the verge of solidifying the nation as an economic leader in the province. LNG is still a very real possibility and would bring not only improved finances but opportunities to members to have good paying jobs to provide for their families.

The revenues from these projects can help the entire nation, both on and off reserve as bands have only been able to assist on-reserve members in the past due to the restrictions of Aboriginal Affairs.

We are also trying to diversify our businesses from LNG with the intent to provide training and employment opportunities for people. I encourage people to utilize this opportunity now because the skills needed to run businesses and a LNG plant are more advanced than ever before.

Thank you to the Haisla Nation Council, it is an honor to work for a progressive, forward thinking, transparent, and leading First Nation, and I look forward to being a small part of the continued success of the Haisla Nation.

Being safe

Bike Rodeo

The Kitimat RCMP held a bike safety rodeo outside the Haisla Community School June 10, to inform students about riding and helmet safety. Above is Const.

Notable news

Words of thanks Haisla Nation Council was pleased to receive letters of thanks from representatives of Mount Elizabeth Middle Secondary School. Principal Geraldine Lawlor, and Socials 9 teachers Nadia Green and Malar Benet wrote to thank the council and Haisla Band Members for the support in putting on a Haisla mini-feast for the high school’s students.

The April 28 event was a hands-on opportunity for the students to learn Haisla culture.

“We, and our students, will have wonderful memories to cherish from the experience,” wrote Green and Benet in their letter.

Lawlor wrote she looks forward to future educational opportunities to learn about Haisla culture.

Art show opens Lyle Wilson’s travelling solo exhibition Paint, which has opened in Maple Ridge, Vancouver, Washington State and in Kitimat gets another venue at the Museum of Northern BC in Prince Rupert.

Lyle hopes to see some Haisla at the exhibit’s official opening in Prince Rupert set for July 14. A specific time has not yet been confirmed.

The exhibit is currently open to the public.

This could be the final appearance of the Paint exhibit, although he is exploring the feasibility of other venues as well.

Fisheries Wanda Stewart-Peters pursues her education Trevor Amos had the opportunity to showcase a small portion of the Haisla Territory to Wanda Peters who is currently finishing up her Aboriginal Tourism course. Here is what she had to say: Yowtz,

My name is Wanda Stewart-Peters. Some may know me, I am the daughter of Norman and Belva Stewart and spent my first 34 years in Kitamaat, and I moved away some 20 plus years ago to take some post secondary courses in Vancouver.

After some unsuccessful attempts to take courses in other fields, I eventually enrolled in the Culinary Arts and Baking and Pastry Arts programs at Vancouver Community College. After completing the programs I worked a number of jobs in the industry, and eventually landed a job in a retirement home as head cook that I held for a number of years before a back injury forced me to quit working in this field I loved so much.

part of the curriculum. This was an amazing experience, and it opened my eyes to all of the different opportunities that are out there for First Nations people.

In the second year of this program completed this year, my class had the opportunity to travel to Chiapas, Mexico. During this trip we were able to bridge After being out of work for a few years, I decided the language gap with the indigenous people of Chiathat I did not want to sit at home and do nothing, pas. The class went on this trip with open minds to and this gave me the opportunity to go back to see how the locals of this country are pushing to have school. In 2013 at the age of 53, I finally got my Grade 12 Dogwood diploma I never had the chance tourism in their area accepted, because as we all know to achieve in my younger years, and then immediately our indigenous culture is becoming too commercialized in the tourism industry. started the Aboriginal Tourism course.

The Aboriginal Tourism program is a four-year course, and I am currently finishing off my second year for my diploma in Tourism Management. This course has been a real eye-opener for me, opening my eyes to many different opportunities. In the first year of the course, I had the opportunity to visit Belize as 10

So because of this trip, my mind and heart are bursting with a plan to hopefully one day bring tourism to our community. In saying that, I came home at the end of April because I needed to complete 100 practicum hours as a requirement of getting my diploma in July. I would like to say a big “Thank You�

Fisheries to HNC for allowing me to do this at the office, and work alongside Sue Smith, the HNC the events coordinator (Shown with Wanda in photo at below right).

I was able to witness first-hand all the planning that goes into Haisla Days, during May long weekend. I take my hat off for this woman, for all the long hours she puts into an event to make sure that it is a success.

I never realized before this just how much work goes into planning an event. Thanks Sue and all of the helpers for allowing me to be a part of this. I know it’s not easy trying to teach someone the ropes when you are so busy yourselves, especially because I didn’t know anything right from day one, your patience will not be forgotten.

I would especially like to thank Trevor Amos for sharing all his knowledge with me about the places we visited down the channel. I will never be able to remember all the names of these places, but I am willing to learn. I was in awe about everything. We live in such a beautiful area, and I think it’s about time we jump on the aboriginal tourism bandwagon and show the world our beautiful home as Aboriginal Tourism is thriving right now.

My dream is to one day bring this to life. I realize it won’t be an easy task to undertake but I am willing to try.

I encourage all the up-and-coming students to never give up on their dreams. If we don’t take chances we will never move forward in life.

I would also like to send out a big Thank You to Marilyn Furlan and her staff for allowing me to share a delicious lunch with the Elders. What an amazing 11

Status Cards

Useful information on status cards STATUS CARDS: I take appointments for Wednesday – Friday. Please have two pieces of valid ID (one being a valid picture ID) before making appointments. I CANNOT issue a status card without ID as I have to submit these to Aboriginal Affairs. I can use your old/current status card as picture ID as long it has not been expired for more than six months.

BABY REGISTRATIONS: ***Registering your child is not mandatory, but is the SOLE responsibility of the parent/s to do so*** First you must apply for the long form Birth Certificate, the one that lists parent/s name on it. Then you can request registration papers from me. If both parents are listed in the Birth Certificate then both parents need to sign the registration forms. The original Birth Certificate does get sent away but will be sent back once Aboriginal Affairs makes their copy. I can make a copy for you before I send it away. The registrations do take a long time, usually 6+ months, SO IT IS UP TO YOU TO HAVE YOUR CHILD REGISTERED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Your child is only covered by your medical for up to 1 year.

TRANSFERS: If you have married and your spouse wishes to transfer from their band to the Haisla Nation you will first need to report your marriage to Aboriginal Affairs. You will need to bring in your Marriage Certificate to me to do the paperwork required. Once your marriage has been reported you can then request transfer papers from me.

For Births and Transfers: If you are not the parent for any minor child/ren you wish to register or transfer, you will need to submit legal documents stating that you are legally responsible or the child/ren.

MARRIAGE/DIVORCE: If you wish to report your marriage and/or change your family name you must bring in your Marriage Certificate. Aboriginal Affairs cannot change anything on the Registry list without proper documents. If your marriage has ended and you wish to revert back to your maiden name, your Certificate of Divorce will need to be submitted along with a form stating that you wish to revert back to your maiden name.

DEATH: If a Haisla Band Member passes on a family member can contact me to request a Bereavement Assistance Cheque. Once again Aboriginal Affairs cannot make changes to the Registry List without proper documents, so please hand in a copy of the Death Certificate to me for submitting. ** If you are calling for your status number (for example) I can only give this information to YOU as you will need to verify some questions. I can only give status information to the parents if the child is under 18 years of age.
