    The Attawaspiskat Cree and Ojibwa are a first nations group living in parts of Canada, mainly northern Ontario. The main languages spoken by these first nation groups are Mushkegowuk Cree and Ojibway. I will compare and contrast the experience of the Attawapiskat Cree to Ojibwa in relation to the Canadian Government. This will include analyzing the treaties introduced by the government towards the Cree and the Ojibwa: in particular, treaty 9 will be discussed. In addition, to these treaties the government has divided the first nation community into two different groups: status-Indians and non-status Indians. Within these two groups further division has been accomplished by the allocation of lands know as reserves to status-Indians and independent ownership for non-status Indians. This allocation of lands in reserves for status-Indians and independent ownership for non-status Indian is based on the policies developed through dependent and independent tenure. The laws permitting only status-Indians to live in reserves have fragmented the community and changes in culture and traditions have been rapid since the arrival of the government.…

    Thomas King uses Satire in his short story,“A Short History Of Indians In Canada ” to convey the theme of dehumanization of Aboriginal people in Canada, by depicting them as animals that are reliant on white people, while it may be a creative for king to express his arguments through, it’s an inappropriate to use humor, and parody depicting aboriginal people while knowing the treatment they have endured by European settlers, King ideas would have been presented more powerful than satire, because there would not be a need to depict the Aboriginal people as birds by their culture and identity, convey the voices of Aboriginal people rather than White people, and explain discrimination against Aboriginal rather than describing them as animals that need to be helped…

    Over 400 years ago, the Powhatan Indians inhabited a place called Jamestown, Virginia. Their every-day life was disrupted, though, when, in 1607, a ship carrying men from England came to claim their land, making Jamestown their new capital. This could have been seen as a bright opportunity for both parties: the Powhatan Indians could have shared their knowledge of the land they occupied, and the English could have shared some of the skills and technology brought over with them. But, of course, the two groups found that they had many differences. They had a hard time sharing and trading because of how different they were, such as in their belief systems, materials and resources, and their living environments to name a few.…

    The location of these people is very remote with the main access to food being hard to find and sometimes having to venture into the different bodies of water. As a result, the hunters needed to build boats sturdy enough to get themselves and the food they are bringing back across the water. When the food makes it back to their homes they work together to retrieve the meat and hides off their prey and in this case a caribou. They would cut up the carcass then start the process of removing the fat and meat from the hides with the edges of their tools. Once the fat was removed they…

Both the Cree and the Iroquois have gone through the routine Native American problems of self-determination and land controls, yet the Cree, possibly because of their sheer numbers, have weathered these problems much better. The Cree language is one of the few North American languages likely to survive into the next century, while the Iroquois Indians have been much more assimilated into the American world.…
