WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar 04: Charlie Hansen bought Andy Whittington's hotel in 1957
and proceeded to fix it up as an operating hotel. In 1959 Edmonton Constrnction and Charlie
concluded an agreement for Charlie to house some of 200 construction workers and feed all of
them while they built the Anglican and RC hostels for residential school students in Fort
Simpson. Charlie hired local people to help with cleaning cooking and serving the workers.
Photos 150-152 show women at the hotel door whom I believe were hired by Charlie to do this
work. In his interview it is clear that there were others besides these three.
This item is the seventeenth part of a twenty-part recording of the "Traditional Knowledge and Aboriginal Self-Government" conference hosted by Indigenous Survival International (Canada) (ISI) on February 25-26, 1993 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. This recording was made on February 26, 1993. The conference is in English. The original source item is side A of a 90 minute audio cassette. The conference also includes CN-284A, CN-284B, CN-283A, CN-283B, CN-282A, CN-282B, CN-276A, CN-276B, CN-285B, CN-286A, CN-281A, CN-280A, CN-280B, CN-277A, CN-277B, CN-279B, CN-278A, and CN-278B. Indigenous Survival International was founded in Yellowknife in 1984 and by 1993 Metis Nation President Gary Bohnet was serving on the Board as the Metis National Council representative. The conference is co-chaired by Sterling Brass (Key First Nation, Saskatchewan) and Jim Bourque (former NWT Metis Association President). The recording is the continuation of the meeting before it breaks into discussion groups. An unidentified speaker asks about ISI’s position on a federal initiative, likely related to trap exchange, that is discriminatory toward off-reserve trappers. Jim Bourque mentions the NWT’s trap exchange program and suggests the workshop groups discuss this issue. ISI staff member Cindy Gilday then makes a number of announcements. The group takes a moment of silence in honour of two people who had recently died before splitting into three discussion groups. The larger group then reconvenes and the facilitators summarize the discussions. Dr. Peter Poole reports the recommendations his group has on education and information, funding, lobbying, trap exchange, the effects of the seal ban, and an expanded mandate for ISI. Rick Maracle then presents the results of his group’s discussion, indicating that they were satisfied with ISI’s current mandate and outlining short and long term plans. Short term plans include developing and coordinating a national strategy with all harvester organizations to include fundraising, charitable status for ISI, lobbying, a trap exchange program, trapper education, a mechanism to confront ISO if the standards are set too high, and a public education program. Long term plans include promoting solidarity and cooperation between traditional land users, networking with other environmental organizations, developing and maintaining a database of traditional knowledge, supporting efforts of Aboriginal land users protecting the land base against effects of development, and support efforts for self-determination, self-government, and a land base. Milton McKay then presents the result’s of his group’s discussion outlining short term plans to deal with the EU parliamentary regulations, develop a conservation strategy, gain funding, create a public education campaign, develop a two-way communication network, and set up a permanent secretariat structure for ISI, and long term plans for public education, the secretariat, funding, accountability of the ISI executive through a yearly assembly, creating an office base in Brussels, lobbying federal MPs, lobbying strategy for communities, creating legal and moral support structure for issues in communities, seting up an information bank on legislation, and gathering information with respect to resource based industries. Milton also outlines ideas his group had for ISI’s mandate. Resource user statements are then given by Antoine Michel (Snowdrift (Lutselk’e)) and Jimmy Laban (Black Lake First Nation). Antoine’s statement is in an Indigenous language, which is translated. The recording ends abruptly.
