Ogookiing: Marten Falls & Ogoki First Nation - Anishinaabe - Cochrane & ...



This is a video for "Ogookiing: Marten Falls & Ogoki Post First Nations", who are joined Anishinaabe-Ojibway communities, located in the Cochrane & Kenora Districts, Northern Ontario, Canada. There are also videos in this channel for many more North, South & Central American Tribes & First Nations, Residential Schools, Chiefs, Elders, Historical Events, Indigenous Concerns, Quotes, Environmental Youth Activists.. and much more. ------------------------------------------------ "Marten Falls First Nation" is an Anishinaabe - Ojibway First Nation reserve, located in Northern Ontario. The First Nation occupies communities on both sides of the Albany River in Northern Ontario, including Ogoki Post (Ojibwe: "Ogookiing"), in the Cochrane District and Marten Falls, in the Kenora District. "Ogoki" (a.k.a.: "Ogoki Post") is a First Nation community managed by the Marten Falls Band. Marten Falls First Nation is the home community of Chanie Wenjack, a young boy who died, in 1966, while trying to return home, after escaping from an Indian residential school. His story was dramatized in "Secret Path", a multimedia music, film and graphic novel project, by Gord Downie and Jeff Lemire. The "James Bay Treaty" created detrimental lasting effects on all of the Indigenous communities throughout the territory. Although, the Crown and Indigenous Peoples forged a treaty relationship, starting in 1905, "colonial policies of assimilation conflicted with the spirit of friendship that the treaty "promised". In the decades since the James Bay Treaty signing, Ontario restrictions placed on hunting, trapping and fishing by Indigenous communities created conflict and diminished Indigenous Peoples’ health and "quality of life". Indigenous communities maintain, that the treaty commissioners made "oral promises" that "guaranteed" First Nations’ right to hunt, trap and fish, as they always had. Therefore, "any and all government policies that restrict their traditional activities (both on and outside the reserve), conflict with their "inherent treaty rights". In contrast, Ontario’s position echoes the words on the written document, which stipulated that, these rights were “subject to such regulations'. Elder John Fletcher, who was present at the James Bay Treaty signing said that, a leader asked one of the Treaty Commissioners: "Will our hunting be affected by the Treaty?". The Commissioner answered: ‘This hunting right will never be taken away. Do you see this river, that never stops flowing? This Treaty will be an example to it." The explanations of the commissioners were not entirely truthful and were given in a way, that the Indians could believe, their rights would be protected by the treaty. ------------------------------------------------- I claim no ownership of any of the clips, video and music expressed in this video...and employ my borrowing of them with much respect and thanks.
