Hello and Tawnshi readers,

My name is Alexis Cinq-Mars, I am a Metis woman, mother, student, and student advocate as the Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion and Indigenous Peer Mentor at Assiniboine Community College. As you can imagine, I run a pretty strict balancing act to maintain my time for family, school commitments, spirit, and self. I am currently studying the social service worker program and plan to keep going in women and gender studies. I have accomplished way more than I thought possible and have found a true love for academia and advocacy. I hope that this path continues to drive me to serve those who continue to be underrepresented. I want my children to feel belonging in this world as Indigenous youth and that they too can make an impact one day. In my dreams I am the future Prime Minister, realistically I am a fierce advocate for human rights with a strong inclination for Indigenous women.

During my time at the college, I hosted events that are important to me like the Indigenous Student Panel with Special Speaker Gerry Oleman: Indigeneity in Education, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women’s Display for Two Consecutive Years, What You Need to Know About MMIW: Educational Webinar, Indigenous Disability Month Webinar: My Student Life With ADHD. I have learned so many added things on top of my education because of my participation in extracurricular activities. I learned how to make media releases, format letters to congress, avocation skills, leadership skill development, policy review, how to form and lead a committee and so much more. I encourage everyone who attends a post-secondary institution to get engaged and participate in some extra activities in your school. You will not only get to have an impact on others, but your own self growth will be incredibly rewarding.

“What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing.”
-Pablo Picasso

Thank you/Merzi
Alexis Cinq-Mars

The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs was formed in 1988 by the Chiefs in Manitoba to advocate on issues that commonly affect First Nations in Manitoba. AMC represents 62 of the 63 First Nations in Manitoba with a total of more than 151,000 First Nation citizens in the province, accounting for approximately 12 per cent of the provincial population. AMC represents a diversity of Anishinaabe (Ojibway), Nehetho (Cree), Oji-Cree, Dene and Dakota people and traditions.

The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs has hosted a First Nations Citizenship Workshop for First Nations band membership managers or clerks and portfolio councilors. The purpose of the workshop was to identify supports needed by First Nations to determine their own citizenship outside of the Indian Act and identify a Manitoba First Nations’ approach to the First Nations-Crown collaborative process on Indian registration, band membership, and First Nations citizenship.

The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs officially opened the Manitoba First Nations Family Advocate Office (FNFAO) on June 1st, 2015. Their mandate is from Manitoba Chiefs; they support the whole family; they advocate for First Nation-led solutions to address the CFS crisis in Manitoba.

Jordan’s Principle is a child-first and needs-based principle that applies equally to all First Nations children resident on or off reserve. It ensures there is no denial or delay for First Nations children in receiving essential public services that are available to all other children by having the government department of first contact pay for the service.

The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC)/Winnipeg Regional Health Authority (WRHA) Patient Advocate Unit supports our people by advocating, developing partnerships and bridging services through effective service coordination to ensure quality services for all First Nations people. This partnership with AMC and WRHA is imperative to ensure the medical needs of First Nation people are met and their medical issues are addressed in a timely and meaningful way as each year the number of clients continues to grow.

The AMC Chiefs-In-Assembly agreed in 2001 to create the Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba in partnership with Canada. The Treaty Office opened in 2005. The current Treaty Commissioner is Loretta Ross. The TRCM is a neutral body with a mandate to strengthen, rebuild and enhance the Treaty Relationship and mutual respect between First Nations and Manitobans as envisaged by the Treaty Parties.

Bear Clan Patrol came about as a result of the ongoing need to assume our traditional responsibility to provide security to our Aboriginal community. Given that the Aboriginal population in Winnipeg is anywhere from 60,000 to 80,000, and is heavily concentrated in certain inner city neighborhoods, it was felt that the community must organize to keep the peace and to assist community members.

The Patrol operates out of 584 Selkirk Ave in the North End, The Broadway Neighbourhood Centre @ 185 Young St. in West Broadway, and 485 Sherbrooke Ave in the West End.

Building on the interest of First Nations child and family services leaders to create a national networking organization, the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society of Canada (the Caring Society) was developed at the Squamish First Nation in 1998 at a national meeting of First Nations child and family service agencies. Meeting delegates agreed that a national nonprofit organization was required to provide research, policy, professional development and networking to support First Nations child and family service agencies in caring for First Nations children, youth and families. An interim board was elected and the plan was approved at a second national meeting at Kingsclear First Nation in 1999. You can read more about the Caring Society and some of their programs in their entry under Foundations of Reconciliation.
