Abstract: The decade from 1985 to 1997 saw rapid social and economic change in the 27 remote hunting and trapping First Nations of Northwestern Ontario. The area also saw an eightfold increase in the suicide rate despite the introduction of a multi-million dollar system of outside helping services. By assuming control of health services, the First Nations have increased the ability to address health and social service problems locally.1997-05-01T00:00:00Z"Aboriginal communities and Social Science research: Voyeurism in transition"Gilchrist, Laurihttps://zone.biblio.laurentian.ca/handle/10219/4722019-07-30T17:47:14Z1997-05-01T00:00:00ZTitle: "Aboriginal communities and Social Science research: Voyeurism in transition"

Abstract: Examination of the relationship of research to Aboriginal peoples reveals a curious paradox. Volumes of research have generated data and theory on Aboriginal people in Canada, and yet there is little research which Aboriginal peoples have been able to determine themselves.1997-05-01T00:00:00Z"Mino-Yaa-Daa: An urban community-based approach"Baskin, Cyndyhttps://zone.biblio.laurentian.ca/handle/10219/4712019-07-30T17:46:52Z1997-05-01T00:00:00ZTitle: "Mino-Yaa-Daa: An urban community-based approach"

Abstract: I realized the importance of kinship connection and family preservation the first time I met one of my birth family members at age twelve. As an adopted child, I often felt I was living in a borrowed state of being. In someone else's family, borrowing someone else's name and culture. Meeting my birth family and recognizing my connection to the Metis community gave me a sense of belonging for the first time in my life.1997-05-01T00:00:00Z
