"Institutional Change On First Nations: Examining Factors Influencing First Nations’ Adoption of the Framework Agreement on First Nation Land Management."

Abstract:
In 1999 the Canadian Federal government passed the First Nations Land Management Act, ratifying the Framework Agreement on First Nation Land Management signed by the government and 14 original signatory First Nations in 1996. This Agreement allows First Nations to opt out of the 34 land code provisions of the Indian Act and develop individual land codes, and has been promoted as a means of increasing First Nation autonomy and facilitating economic growth and development on reserve lands. There are currently 77 First Nation signatories to the Agreement, 39 with operational independent land codes. This paper is the first to empirically examine factors that may influence a First Nation's decision to become signatory to the Framework Agreement. A unique dataset characterizing each First Nation by socio-economic and demographic characteristics is used with a probit model to determine the effects of these characteristics on the probability of First Nation adoption of the Agreement. The results of this study indicate that proximity to an urban centre positively affects the probability that a First Nation will adopt. However, the statistical strength of this finding is sensitive to the inclusion of an education variable in the regression.

Abstract:
In 2016 Canada was ordered to implement Jordan’s Principle by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal. In response to the order Canada created the Child First Initiative to provide federal funding for provincial and territorial organizations supporting First Nation’s children’s health, education, and social service needs, including service coordination. In the shifting national landscape of Child First Initiative funding, there is a lack of evidence on how pediatric healthcare services are addressing the serious health and healthcare inequities experienced by many First Nations children. This paper describes the implementation of a Child First Initiative by the First Nations Health Consortium in the Alberta region, and research findings that provide insights into the complexity and challenges of advancing First Nations children’s health and health equity within the current federal Child First Initiative mandate in this province. This paper highlights the need for transformative pediatric healthcare approaches that expand beyond an individual and demand-driven system and orient towards practices and policies that are socially-responsive. Also, that First Nations leaders and Jordan’s Principle initiatives play a leading role in the design and delivery of all pediatric healthcare services with First Nation communities, families and children across Canada.

Abstract:
Aboriginal, and in particular First Nations children, are overrepresented in the child welfare system across Canada. While information about child welfare services provided to First Nations children and families in Québec is sparse, the evidence that does exist supports the national trends of overrepresentation. Understanding how child welfare services are delivered in Québec is essential in comprehending how First Nations peoples receive, and are impacted by, the various methods of child welfare delivery in this province. The first section of this paper presents an overview of First Nations child welfare history, describing colonial and child welfare policies responsible for the removal of tens of thousands of First Nations children from their homes and communities. The next section outlines current socioeconomic, legislative, jurisdictional and funding challenges in the delivery of First Nations child welfare, linking them to the historical development described in the first section. It also presents an overview of the current structure of the First Nations child welfare system in Canada and Québec, examining some of the research regarding the response of Québec's child welfare system to the complex needs of First Nations children and families. Finally, the paper concludes with a discussion of the factors contributing to the overrepresentation of First Nations children in the child welfare system including the impact of historical assimilationist policies, the socioeconomic status of First Nations peoples in Canada and the development of First Nations child welfare services. Implications for practice, policy and future research are also discussed.
Les enfants autochtones, en particulier les enfants des Premières nations, sont surreprésentés dans les services de protection de la jeunesse à travers le Canada. Bien que les données sur les services de protection de la jeunesse offerts aux enfants et familles des Premières nations au Québec soient limitées, celles-ci soutiennent la tendance nationale de surreprésentation. Il est essentiel de comprendre l'offre de services de la protection de la jeunesse l'enfance au Québec afin de saisir comment les Premières nations reçoivent et sont affectées par les divers méthodes d'offre de services de protection de la jeunesse dans cette province. La première partie de ce document présente un survol historique de la protection de la jeunesse chez les Premières nations, décrivant les politiques coloniales et de la protection de la jeunesse responsables du retrait de dizaines de milliers d'enfants des Premières nations de leur famille et de leur communauté. La section suivante donne un aperçu des défis socioéconomiques, législatifs, juridictionnels et de financement de la protection de la jeunesse des Premières nations, les reliant à l'évolution historique telle que décrite dans la première section. Elle présente aussi un portrait de la structure actuelle de l'offre de services de la protection de la jeunesse des Premières nations au Canada et au Québec, en examinant certaines études concernant la réponse du système québécois de la protection de la jeunesse aux besoins complexes des enfants et des familles des Premières nations. Une discussion des facteurs qui contribuent à la surreprésentation des enfants des Premières nations dans le système de la protection de la jeunesse, y compris l'impact des politiques assimilationnistes, la situation socioéconomique des peuples des Premières nations au Canada et l'évolution des services de protection de la jeunesse des Premières nations, conclut ce document. Les implications pour la pratique, les politiques et les recherches ultérieures sont également discutées.

Abstract:
This self study documents the author’s journey into the tensions, struggles and an ultimately deepening awareness of his First Nations identity. Using autoethnography as the methodological vehicle for this journey, the goal was to evocatively convey to the reader the tensions that exist between the author’s internal knowing of self and the external forces that impact this way of knowing. Autoethnography is an appropriate methodology to assist this highly personal, subjective and ultimately painful attempt to narrate the author’s experience to the reader. Through this study, the author comes to understand that he has carried feelings of shame in his body that has impacted his First Nations identity. As a result of being witnessed uncovering and addressing these feelings in this study, the author has gained new confidence and a strengthened sense of identity. The reader is invited along on this journey and asked to draw their own conclusions and consider their own stake in how this study may apply to their understanding of Aboriginal identity.

Full text
Abstract:
Many Latin American nations have recently implemented liberal trade regimes, often as part of a larger set of market-oriented reforms, and have abandoned their industrialization policies based on import substitution. In the 1980s, Chile, Mexico, and Bolivia were among the continent's first nations to slash tariff rates and virtually eliminate quantitative restrictions on imports. They were followed by many others, including Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Jamaica, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Trinidad and Tobago. All these countries are now much more exposed to international competition than ever before. But is this a good idea? Are labor rights really more restricted in export-oriented Asian nations than they are in Latin America? And if so, are Latin American workers prejudiced by Asia's lower standards?

Full text
Abstract:
In 2016, the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR) was mandated by the United Nations General Assembly to develop “a voluntary self-assessment tool to assist States in identifying gaps and challenges in their national regulation and preparedness regarding improvised explosive devices”. In response to this request, UNIDIR developed this Counter-IED Capability Maturity Model and Self-Assessment Tool. This document is designed to assist States in the development of coherent national responses to the threat posed by IEDs. This document is structured in three broad parts: the first (sections 1-4) provides a brief introduction and sets the context of the problem. The second (section 5) provides the rationale for applying a capability maturity model (CMM) and describes the C-IED CMM. The third (section 6) describes the Self-Assessment Tool, which is based on the C-IED CMM. Components of counter-IED capability are divided into two categories: upstream components, which are focused on those activities aimed at deterring or preventing IED events from taking place, and downstream components, which are associated with responding to a particular IED event or mitigating an IED event should it occur. The general premise of the model is that the greater the maturity and effectiveness of upstream measures, the fewer downstream measures are required to counter the use of IEDs.
