The Northern College Board of Governors and the Northern College Aboriginal Council on Education both gave
their approval to the college’s 2013-2016 Strategic Plan which came into effect on April 1st, 2013.
The strategic plan sets forth four strategic directions: Accessible Education; Signature Programs; The Northern
Experience; and Aboriginal Perspectives.
While all four strategic directions will contribute to improved programs and services for all students, including
a specific strategic direction for Aboriginal peoples demonstrates the commitment Northern College has to
becoming the college of choice for Aboriginal peoples.
Our college has enjoyed a very close relationship in providing education and training programs to Aboriginal
communities since Northern College was first established in 1967. Over the years, this relationship has now
grown to where 12% of our total college enrolment is comprised of Aboriginal students. We are honoured and it
is a privilege to receive your trust and confidence to help develop the next generation of social workers, nurses,
electricians, business owners and community leaders.
As a college, we are committed to continuing to hold meaningful dialogue and develop partnerships with
Aboriginal leaders, learners, communities and employers, building on those strong relationships that have already
been established.

lightning trail

a success
From August 11 to 17, 2013, Northern College, in
partnership with Hydro One and District School Board
Ontario North East hosted Lighting Trail, a summer
retreat for Aboriginal youth at the Timmins Campus.
29 First Nation, Metis and Inuit students between the
ages of 12 and 18 attended the retreat. Originally
conceived as an event to introduce attendees to
trades and technology while building confidence,
leadership skills and cultural understanding, Northern
College expanded the scope of the retreat to include
additions to attendees’ college transcripts. All
attendees who participated in 80% or more of the
retreat’s workshops, activities and teachings received
a Certificate of Completion for Lightning Trail issued
by Northern College.
In addition, three Lightning Trail participants were
awarded $1,500 Northern College Hydro One
Aboriginal Leadership Entrance Bursaries, which can
be applied to tuition costs should they enroll in one
of the Electrical Engineering Technician, Electrical
Engineering Technology or Civil Engineering
Technology programs at Northern College. Curtis
Dobson, Kaylan Innes and Samuel Kloetstra were
presented the bursaries in recognition of their work in
planning, designing and coordinating the retreat, as
well serving as leaders to the attendees. These leaders
also established the Nish Olympics, a series of events
held at Lightning Trail, which included an obstacle
course designed to resemble hunting, a fire building
and tea boiling exercise, and a canoe race.
Other events at Lightning Trail included workshops
in residential wiring, welding and instrumentation, as
well as tours of Northern College and the Timmins
Native Friendship Centre. Cultural events at the
3
the feather • Volume 2 • Issue 1 • Fall/winter 2013
retreat included the sharing of wisdom on the seven
grandfather teachings, sacred fire, medicine wheel
and rites of passage.
The attendees of Lightning Trail enjoyed the retreat’s
mix of indigenous knowledge and technical workshops.
The self-esteem and confidence of the attendees
grew as they created friendships and engaged in new
experiences and many plan to return again next year.
Guest speakers Wab Kinew, host of CBC’s The 8th
Fire and Shy-Anne, an award-winning country music
artist, were integral to Lightning Trail’s success. These
speakers shared their personal stories of hardships and
success, and provided messages of encouragement to
attendees.

The students at Northern College have found the
Elders on Campus program of great assistance as they
navigate their way through their journey to academic
success. In each edition of The Feather, we will pay
tribute to the Elders that are coming into the college
to help our students. In this edition we would like to
acknowledge the tremendous support of David Faries.
David not only shares his knowledge at our Timmins
Campus, but also makes visits to our Haileybury and
Kirkland Lake Campuses.
Nursing Faculty at Northern College had the
opportunity to participate in a day-long session
on nursing and traditional teachings conducted by
Rosella Kinoshameg, RN, BScN, DSL (Honoris Causa).
Rosella is Odawa/Ojibway from the Wikwemikong
Unceded Indian Reserve and has a special interest
in the Anishinabe culture and spirituality, medicine
wheel, traditional medicine as a way of life, plants
for foods and medicine; Medicine Walks, and has
incorporated many teachings in all aspects of her
work. Rosella is a recipient of an honorary Doctorate
in Sacred Letters, and has 45 varied years of nursing
experience. Rosella was at Northern College to help
nursing faculty incorporate culturally competent care
into the nursing curriculum, ensuring that every nurse
that graduates from Northern College will have the
competencies needed to provide culturally safe care
in all practice settings.
This is an example of how Northern College is working
towards being the college of choice for the Aboriginal
peoples of northeastern Ontario.

David speaks to us with sincerity. He knows how to use
humour effectively and has taught us so much about
our culture. But most importantly David has found a
way to make us proud of our culture and of who we
are. David is with us in times of celebration and helps
us in times of sadness and we are better for knowing
him.
David believes that learning cultural practices and
passing them on to future generations will strengthen
our community and our people.
The staff and students of Northern College appreciate
David’s contribution. Meegwetch, David.

During March 2012, the Northern College
Aboriginal Council on Education had the college
conduct a survey of First Nations, Metis and Inuit
students. The information gathered from this survey
is intended to improve programs and services for
FNMI students. The Aboriginal Council is pleased
to share this information with you.

The Northern College Aboriginal Council on Education
makes it a point to meet annually with the students of
Northern College. This year, one student suggested
that as there are various orientation sessions that take
place at the college each year, an Aboriginal awareness
activity should be created.
The Aboriginal Council wholeheartedly supported this
recommendation and the week of September 23rd to
27th, 2013, has been selected to be Aboriginal Cultural
Awareness Week at Northern College.
My name is Monique G. and I’m from
Peawanuck, Ontario, which is located
approximately 34 kilometers from the coast
of the Hudson Bay. It’s a small community
where the population is less than 300. Every
summer, I would normally travel back home
to spend time with family and friends, but
this year I decided to work in Timmins.
I’m a Business Accounting student at
Northern College and I’m also a summer
employee for Northern as well. After meeting
some of the employees, I’m very grateful to
have the opportunity to be here and to work
with such hardworking, wonderful people
who are dedicated to their jobs.
I chose Northern College to continue my
education because of its reputation and
location. The atmosphere is welcoming
and there is a great learning environment. I
came here with hopes that my transition into
college life would be an easy one, and it was.
The staff and teachers made that possible.
They were very helpful and organized.
They keep the student informed about
the activities/events that take place in and
around the college. It makes you feel like
you are part of the Northern College team.
Northern has become a home away from
home.

It is anticipated that Aboriginal Cultural Awareness
Week will become an annual celebration of Indigenous
cultures. Aboriginal Cultural Awareness Week is a
chance for students, faculty, staff and the community
at large to engage with and learn about Indigenous
cultures.
One of the primary objectives of Aboriginal Cultural
Awareness Week is to educate our campus communities
about Indigenous issues, and to dispel myths and
stereotypes about Aboriginal peoples.
Northern College’s Aboriginal Cultural Awareness
Week is a chance for our Aboriginal students and
staff to celebrate, and show the rest of the college
community the uniqueness and beauty that lies within
the many nations.
We would like to thank Margaret for suggesting that
we host this event. You have made Northern College
a better place.

P ow wow
The 12th Annual Northern College Traditional
Powwow, one of the largest events on the
Powwow trail in Ontario, was held on Saturday
April 6th
and
Sunday, April 7th, 2013. The
theme for the Powwow was “Honouring our
Mother Earth”. The Powwow opened with a
Pre-Powwow social on the evening of the 4th, which
took place in the gymnasium at Northern College’s
Timmins campus. This gathering was an opportunity
for the local community to observe, celebrate and
learn about the Aboriginal spirit and the strength
of Aboriginal families. Guests arrived from as far as
Thunder Bay, Wemindji, Attawapiskat, Ottawa and
London, joining members of the local community as
well as the surrounding communities and territories
of the Wabun Tribal Council and Mushkegowuk
Tribal Council. Over forty people attended the social,
mingling and dancing while the drum groups warmed
up for the main event.
A Sacred Fire and Pipe Ceremony with Grandfather
Veteran Robert Bigtrack was held early Saturday
morning. Grand Entry started at noon, and sixty
dancers and eight drums accompanied the solemn
and sacred openings of the Powwow. Nations’ flags,
Turtle Island and Eagle Staffs were carried and
displayed by Elders, Chiefs, local leaders, veterans
and other dignitaries and were celebrated.
The Powwow Committee ensured that the positive
and friendly atmosphere within the campus, including
the gymnasium, vendors’ area and Tipi, focused on
the singers, dancers, and Elders. With the experience
and coordinated direction the Master of Ceremonies
David Faries and Arena Director Gerald Chum, the
Powwow exceeded all expectations and exemplified
a well organized event. Chikeney Creek, Highridge
Singers, Poplar Singers, Ghost Mountain, Wild Cree
and White Tail Cree were the singers and drums of
the weekend. Ceremonies included the Grand Entry,
Flag, Veteran, Invocation, Memorial, Prayers, and
Closing Songs. The singers’ melodic voices and the
heartbeats of the sacred drums inspired the dancers,
including lead dancers Mariette Sutherland and Tim
McGregor. Also in attendance was hoop dancer Lisa
Odjig, semi-finalist of Canada’s Got Talent, who was
invited to demonstrate her art. Over 60 Powwow
dancers, children, youth, adult and Elders danced
with their beautiful intricately designed regalia. Pride,
teachings and laughs were shared.
Detour Gold sponsored a Saturday evening feast that
coincided with a fashion show consisting of Bruno
Henry’s designs, which were modeled by Northern
College students. Vendors sold arts and crafts, and
there was also children’s arts and crafts activities
directed by Nichole Roy and her college student
volunteers.
On behalf of the Northern College Powwow
Committee, we would like to thank the following
business and organizations who assisted with this
event: Ontario Power Generation, DeBeers Canada,
Ojibway & Cree Cultural Centre, Northern Logistics
Inc., Canadian Tire, Walmart, Dailey’s Independent
Grocer, Timmins Garage, Waste Management,
Wyatt Image Solutions, OFIS Supplies, Timmins
Native Friendship Centre, Metis Nation of Ontario,
Kunuwanimano, Misiway Health Centre and the
Mennonite Central Committee. Until next year’s 13th
annual Northern College Traditional Powwow, enjoy a
great autumn and continue sharing Aboriginal culture.
Meegwetch!

permanent tipi
g r a n d op e n i n g
On April 5th, 2013 Northern College welcomed
students, staff and members of the community to
celebrate the grand opening of the new permanent
700 square foot Tipi at the Timmins Campus.
The Tipi will play host to community, cultural and
educational activities while providing a warm,
inviting environment for gathering, sharing, healing
and learning. The Tipi will be accessible to Northern
College students, partners, clients, and all those with
an interest in learning more about the cultural values
and traditions of Aboriginal peoples.
heritage is such a wonderful opportunity for everyone
involved, whether someone is sharing their heritage
or experiencing something new.”
The construction of the Tipi was officially marked on
June 8th, 2012 with a sunrise ceremony facilitated by
Grandmother and Elder Roberta Oshkawbewisens
and Grandfather and Elder David Faries to bless
the ground, acknowledge the original inhabitants of
the land and ask for their blessing for the continued
success of the activities conducted upon it. In late
March, a sunrise pipe ceremony was held to cleanse
the Tipi before its grand opening. Smudging,
traditional teachings and a sharing circle followed.
Northern College’s 2013-2016 Strategic Plan guides
the college’s goals and action plans, allowing the
college to effectively carry out our mission to ensure
quality, accessible education through innovative
programs, services, and partnerships for the benefit
of our northern communities.
Designed in the likeness of a traditional Tipi, this
permanent structure is located on the south side of
the campus facing Porcupine Lake. It is temperature
controlled, ventilated, and connected to the college
to enable year-round use. This new venue will
provide an inclusive environment to meet the needs
of cultural, community, and educational activities
such as smudging, Aboriginal teachings and,
traditional ceremonies, as well as classes, seminars
and meetings with Aboriginal content. It will be
used by faculty, aligning with traditional methods
of learning such as storytelling and learning circles.
A place for quiet reflection and a symbol of respect
and acceptance, the Tipi provides access to the
spiritual and cultural wisdom of Elders and promotes
cross cultural awareness among the staff, faculty,
community and student body.
“The Tipi is a source of ceremony, relationship
building, cross-cultural understanding and a place
of sharing and reflection. Northern College is
dedicated to creating and sustaining a respectful,
inclusive, accessible, and culturally sensitive learning
environment,” said Fred Gibbons, President of
Northern College. “Celebrating our varied cultural
9

The Tipi is a visible embodiment of one of
Northern College’s strategic directions, Aboriginal
Perspectives. Northern College is committed to
holding meaningful dialogue and developing
partnerships with Aboriginal leaders, learners,
communities and employers, and building on strong
relationships that have already been established.

g r a d uat i n g s t u d e n t v i s i t
In early March, Northern College hosted 28 students
and chaperones from Kashechewan and Fort
Albany. Students from Attawapiskat, Moosonee and
Moose Factory were unable to attend due to other
commitments but we look forward to meeting them in
the near future.
The week began with students and chaperones
travelling on the ice road to Moosonee where they
boarded the Polar Bear Express Train to Cochrane.
They were then met by Tisdale Bus Lines who provided
transportation for the week. The Bon Air Motel in
Timmins provided accommodation for the attendees
as our college campus residence was in still in use, as
regular classes were underway. The timing provided
an excellent opportunity for the high school students
to interact with current Northern College students and
to see classes in action.
During the week, the students travelled to our
campuses in Haileybury, Kirkland Lake and Timmins.
The students spent a full day at each location, getting
a feel for the campuses and their surroundings.
Recruitment and advising staff were on hand to meet
with the students, including the campus Elders who
were readily available to offer their assistance. A
smudging ceremony was held for the students at our
Kirkland Lake Campus guided by our Elder David
Faries.
Each day began with the students having breakfast,
then travelling to their specific destination campus
where they were given tours of shops, labs, classes,
libraries, gyms, and campus services. At our Haileybury
Campus, students experienced a half day presentation
on our Mining Engineering Technician program and
mining opportunities that are available to them.
Job prospects were shared as a result of activity
underway in the James Bay area, including the
DeBeers Victor Mine project, Detour Gold’s Detour
Lake mine and the ongoing development of Ontario’s
Ring of Fire.
Students also had the opportunity to speak to faculty
and observe classes in progress. They returned to the
Timmins Campus in time for supper each day.
The visiting students also took advantage of the
social aspects of visiting the city by going to movies,
shopping, and visiting relatives. The Northern College
Student Association provided all visiting students with
information and giveaways, as did our Admissions and
Marketing departments.
On the final day of the week the students returned to
Cochrane to board the train to return home. They left
with a solid understanding of what Northern College
has to offer. The following excerpt from this thank
you email by Haydn George, Principal of Francine J.
Wesley Secondary School in Kashechewan, sums up
the student experiences of the week:
“On behalf of all our students, we say Meegwetch for
all your efforts this week during our visit to Northern
College. We were pleasantly surprised at your offer to
attend the facilities for the week and are pleased that
we accepted. Students had a fabulous opportunity
to understand your programming and become
acquainted with the campuses.
I look forward to hearing more success stories from
students who attend Northern College in the future!
Congratulations on organizing a meaningful week!”

three sisters garden
The Aboriginal Services Department at Northern College took advantage of a Community
Garden located on the College’s Timmins Campus, renting a plot in order to create a
Three Sisters Garden. This companion-planting combination, consisting of corn, beans and
squash, results in a successful harvest of each crop.
In a Three Sisters Garden, corn is planted in the centre of a plot. The stalks of the corn
provide natural poles which are climbed by bean vines. At the same time, the beans fix
nitrogen to their roots, improving the overall fertility of the plot. The bean vines also help
stabilize the corn plants, making them less vulnerable to blowing over in the wind. Shallowrooted squash vines act as a living mulch, shading emerging weeds and preventing soil
moisture from evaporating, improving the overall crops chances of survival during dry
periods. The spines of the squash plants discourage predators from approaching the
garden. The large amount of crop residue created by this planting combination can be
added back to the soil at the end of the season, in order to improve its fertility.
Corn, beans and squash also complement each other nutritionally. Corn provides
carbohydrates and dried beans provide protein and squash provides vitamins.
When the garden is ready to harvest, it will be used by Grandmother Roberta
Oshkawbewisens to tell the story of how she learned to make corn soup. If the harvest
is less plentiful than hoped, perhaps Grandmother Roberta will share a story of how to
survive during times when food is scarce.

Northern College provided a unique cultural
awareness opportunity to nine employees. Knowing
that Aboriginal culture is closely tied to the land, four
faculty, four support staff and one administrator visited
the communities of Moosonee and Moose Factory.
A charter left the Timmins airport on Wednesday,
August 21st, 2013. After a tour of Moosonee, the staff
met with a boat driver who took the group on a tour
of the Ship Sands Island, located at the mouth of the
Moose River, 19 km downriver from Moosonee and
Moose Factory. The Island attracts many shorebird
species and contains marshland, willow meadows and
expansive tidewater and mudflats (not to mention that
it is home to many, many mosquitoes).
Indigenous owned Eco Lodge in the northern
hemisphere. This modern building is a state-of-theart eco-tourism facility, designed and operated by
the MoCreebec people in accordance with traditional
values and a focus on Cree cultural and ecological
sustainability. The accommodations and meals were
excellent and the service, second to none.
After dinner the group moved over to the Shaputuan
where Norm Wesley talked about the seasons and the
importance of the goose to the way of life. The group
enjoyed playing traditional Cree games and feasted
on bannock.
Tours of Weeneebayko Hospital, Hudson Bay Staff
House and Museum Grounds, Moose Cree Education
Authority, Delores D. Echum Secondary School, Cree
Cultural Centre, and Moose Cree First Nation Band
Office took place.
At each and every stop the people of the community
warmly welcomed the group. Our goal was to learn
about where our students come from so that we can
better understand them and be of greater assistance
so that they can achieve their educational goals.
Thanks to the communities of Moosonee and Moose
Factory, we achieved our goal and we can’t wait to go
back.

s h a p u t ua n
With guidance from the Elders on Campus, Northern College has canvas tipis available at each of our campuses.
While the Haileybury, Kirkland Lake and Moosonee campuses possess traditionally shaped tipis, the Timmins
campus has a Shaputuan, a long-house style structure.
The purpose of these structures is to help faculty and staff enrich the learning experience of the College’s
students. The Tipis and Shaputuan are sacred locations, and are to be used as culturally appropriate, with
ceremonies taking place as required. They are designated as smudging areas and are to be used as a place for
gathering, for education and for the sharing of knowledge.
By having these structures on campus, students are able to learn of the traditional ways. The students also
appreciate having a place where all voices can be heard and ideas shared.
