Yellowhead Institute

Yellowhead Institute

Yellowhead Institute generates critical policy perspectives in support of First Nation jurisdiction.

The Institute is a First Nation-led research centre based in the Faculty of Arts at Ryerson University in Toronto, Ontario. Privileging First Nation philosophy and rooted in community networks, Yellowhead is focused on policies related to land and governance. The Institute offers critical and accessible resources for communities in their pursuit of self-determination. It also aims to foster education and dialogue on First Nation governance across fields of study, between the University and the wider community, and among Indigenous peoples and Canadians.

    “On September 4, 2012, the federal government let fall any pretence of seeking compromise or reform when it announced the ‘results based’ approach to modern treaty (comprehensive claims) and self-government agreements. Henceforth, the federal government would only deal with bands that, in effect, agree to surrender before the negotiations continue. To be included in the future negotiations, bands would be required to: Accept the extinguishment (modification) of Aboriginal Title; Accept the legal release of Crown liability for past violations of Aboriginal Title & Rights; Accept elimination of Indian Reserves by accepting lands in fee simple; Accept removing on-reserve tax exemptions; Respect existing Third Party Interests (and therefore alienation of Aboriginal Title territory without compensation); Accept (to be assimilated into) existing federal & provincial orders of government; Accept application of Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms over governance & institutions in all matters; Accepting Funding on a formula basis being linked to own source revenue; Other measures, and accept becoming Aboriginal municipalities.” - The Reconciliation Manifesto: Recovering the Land, Rebuilding the Economy - Arthur Manuel and Ronald Derrickson

    Molly Wickham has a white father, Frank Alec is a convicted wife beater. Seth Lefort who blocked the rail outside of Belleville Ontario is described by the chief of the Six Nations police as a Drug dealer. Skyler Williams has had public allegations against him of sexual misconduct. These people are not true FN. They're flawed people who rely on useful fools. They also pay asshats like Nick Kolbasook to stand on the lines. Nick Kolbasook fled New York State from weapons and drug charges. This is not FN representation. Useful fools.

    Allow is a strange word, in certain contexts. Do the people have adequate space, for growth of every kind. Research that. Are the homeless going home, to community. Research that. Are you holding onto your title, to land. Are you making it a requirement for resource sharing, in the name of partnership in the development of normal co existence. I'm not liking the 3rd sentence of the previous poster. Maybe the people, need to research that?

    There is no "Land Back" in modern treaties. All we have to do is look at the Algonquin land claims process in Ontario. We are offered 1.7% of our traditional territory and no resource revenue sharing. I do wonder why the Yellowhead Institute is not placing more effort in exposing this fraud. I say this because we are talking about land the Parliament Hill squats on; this means the Algonquin issue has the potential to raise awareness to Canada's ongoing colonization. Nothing has changed. Nothing at all. There is no land back.

    When ANY people won't ingratiate or acclimate themselves into society,then they are not a part of the society by their own choice. When you separate yourself from the rest of us,then you are responsible for whatever difficulties you face alone. If natives ever stop 'purposely' trying to be outside of society,then they would get actual help they need from society.

    Hello there, My comment may not be like most of the others, but it is important to me to open up about that. I am french and always lived in France. I am 22, at the moment, close to my 23th spring. My whole life, I have been close to nature in a way, animals, living as much as I could in harmony with everything around me, being an animist. Through my research to find other beliefs close to mine, the only ones I could find and feel a connection with, were the ones of the First Nations. I never understood it. But I always felt like it was more natural and logical to me than any other. Something I never felt with my people. I can't explain it. Now a day, I'm trying, from France, to help First Nations as much as I can. I don't have a lot of money, just what's needed for me to live an humble life. But that's okay. I want to talk about MMIW, Orange Day Shirt, and things like that. I want to teach people about your condition, and about the real story and how things really are for you all now, in both the US and Canada. When I read Dominique Rankin's book, I felt like... I don't know how to name it. I have CPTSD, so I felt like someone could understand me, more, that a people could understand me, in this healing journey, facing traumas. Also, the more he was talking about how he lived before the reservations, the residential school (it was terrible to read about it, but necessary, in a way), I felt like it was a logical way of life : simple, slow, with nature's seasons, calmer and more relaxed life, in peace and harmony. Since then, the Anishinaabe have always had a big place in my heart. It feels like you are the family I "should" have had, in a way. I will never stop saying I am white, agender, french, or use any other terms that aren't from your culture (like for my gender for example), because I don't want to do any culture appropriation. But I feel a connection I can't denie, and to me, your people got the keys of spirituality, wisdom, a lot of different medicine, that can help us live a better life, closer to nature. Europeans may have forgot about it, but we once lived just like you, First Nations, did. It is just that we stopped long before we forced you to stop, and for the worst. We became greedy, bitter, anxious, unhappy, and then, we forced the ones that weren't suffering like us (what they called "uncivilizised") to suffer like us, because we couldn't take it, I suppose. I want things to change, for the better. What was done then was a horrible genocide and it should have never happened. What you are experiencing now because of the colons descendants isn't right either. But I want to believe that we can all, Yellow, Red, Black, White people, create a better place, a better future, not just for us, but also for the next generations. I want to learn from your people. I truly want. I may have a warrior spirit, but my heart is peaceful and right. Thank you for reading this long comment. Take care of yourself, Tala

    I ❤ this video!! My 2nd-great-grandmother was an Ojibwe / Chippewa Medicine Woman. I am so thankful for videos like this since the teachings of my Ojibwe & First Nation ancestors were not passed down due to discrimination, pressure to integrate with white European culture, and further intermarriage with "white" Europeans. We are living in scary but also exciting times. Watch the documentary "Psychedelica" on the Gaia channel. It is amazing. So educational. The "plant medicines" also include Cannabis & psychedelics - used for thousands of years by Indigenous peoples and likely by early Christians, too. They were criminalized by the Nixon administration in large part to discriminate against people of color. The powerful pharmaceutical companies profited enormously from their criminalization. The path to legalization has been progressing, and hopefully the pharmaceutical companies will not get away with highjacking & perverting this natural plant medicine from Mother Earth. It is our right as human beings to take back control of our psychological, spiritual and physical health and use plant based medicines if we so choose - instead of toxic, expensive, and often addictive and ineffective chemicals made in a lab! Studies are showing how these plant medicines can "reset" a person's brain to function "normally" - rid itself of toxic programming that leads to so much unhappiness with life. Research shows that unlike legal alcohol, these plant medicines are NOT addictive. Research shows they are vastly more effective at treating mental health issues, chronic pain, and potentially helpful in treating ADHD! And the plant medicines don't need to be taken constantly or even frequently. For some people 1 time was enough to cure crippling depression and/or PTSD. They are IMO the #1 hope for healing the human race - reset humans' brains after generations of being raised in an increasingly toxic, violent, hyper-materialistic culture. The collective reintegration of our connection to and reverence for our Mother Earth needs to be restored. Indigenous knowledge & practices are desperately needed. 🌎 ❤

    No we can only go forward. Everyone cant go back and live off the land, that would do more harm than good. We need to go forwards and start making a world like the Jetsons cartoons. We need to do it in a very smart way, employing the wisdom of the ancient and nature. We need big cities and towns so that we can stay off the land and give it to the wild animals. We need totally new cities built in whole new ways though.

    Thanks so much for uploading this... really good to hear directly from land defenders. (I'd registered for the talk but hard to coordinate timing live from Europe). Question... is there a written transcript of the talk available? I was able to download the youtube-generated subtitle file, so i have a copy of the text, but if there was a more official one to point to, better. (Also, as a technical note, the youtube generated subtitles are timed more precisely with the spoken text than the ones burned into the video.)
