Indigenous Course Requirement Collection

Archived since: Jun, 2023

Description:

Collection gathers news articles and websites that discuss Indigenous Course Requirements from Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, and Winnipeg. It focuses on the Indigneous Course Requirement that was established in 2015 at the University of Winnipeg. The largest group of sources are news articles. They discuss the need for Indigenous Course Requirements and how they can be a positive change in Universities. New articles also discuss the establishment of the Indigneous Course Requirement at the University of Winnipeg. These articles contain quotes from faculty, student leaders, students, and others that have a connection to the new requirement. The goal of this collection is to attempt to capture the thoughts of the time when the requirement was created in Winnipeg, and its place among the larger trend for Indigenous Course Requirements in Canada.

Truth and Reconciliation

Archived since: Jul, 2016

Description:

In collaboration with the University of Manitoba Libraries, the National Centre of Truth and Reconciliation, and the Library and Archives of Canada, the University of Winnipeg Library has curated and captured a selection of webpages, blogs, news coverage, and PDF files that pertain to Manitoba's ongoing involvement with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. This growing collection covers a diverse range of topics, which include survivors’ stories, apologies, responses, cultural events, and more. This is an ongoing web-archiving project that will continue to grow as we witness new ways that reconciliation and healing take place in our province.

Wet’suwet’en Resources in Manitoba

Archived since: Feb, 2020

Description:

The Wet’suwet’en Resources in Manitoba collection was created in an effort to preserve the news, blogs, social media, and controversy as it relates to Manitoba surrounding the Coastal GasLink pipeline proposing to go through the Wet’suwet’en Nation's territory. The Coastal GasLink pipeline is part of a $40 billion project that would move natural gas extracted from northeastern B.C. to the proposed LNG Canada facility in Kitimat, B.C., where the gas would be liquefied and shipped overseas. A large portion of the proposed 670-kilometre pipeline is slated to go through the Wet'suwet'en Nation's traditional territory — a route rejected by most of the nation's hereditary chiefs. The pipeline's owner, TC Energy, says it has signed agreements with all First Nations along the proposed route, but the hereditary leaders say those agreements don't apply to their territory because they have never historically ceded their territory. The Wet’suwet’en Nation lies about 300 kilometres west of Prince George, B.C. Wet'suwet'en members and supporters established checkpoints and camps to prevent Coastal GasLink workers from accessing the Nation's territory. TransCanada got an interim injunction from B.C. Supreme Court in December 2018 for access, which was enforced by RCMP in January 2019, when 14 people were arrested at the Gidimt'en camp. Protests were organized nationally and internationally in support of the Wet’suwet’en Nation.
