No Swimming Notice – Indian Lake & Sipug

Listuguj Community Health Services

NO SWIMMING AT INDIAN LAKE OR SIPUG UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

The Listuguj Community Health Services, in partnership with Environment Canada conducts weekly water testing in our territory.

Test results of the water at Qospem “Indian Lake” and Sipug show unacceptable levels of Ecoli contamination. This is attributed to the high volume of rain and increased wildlife in the area.
The community of Listuguj is advised not to swim in the water until further notice.

As of today, they continue to test, and there is no change. We will continue to test the water and advise when it is once again safe to swim.

Feedback Update

/in ,
Feedback@listuguj.ca

Feedback@listuguj.ca was created in late 2021 to help support the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a method for the community to voice their concerns regarding COVID-19. There was a dedicated process in place to have your concerns addressed and responded to in a timely manner.

With Listuguj no longer being in a state of emergency, the e-mail has lost its purpose and has been dormant for a few months now.

With that being said, LMG Communications will be bringing this e-mail back with a new purpose. This is based on the questionnaire results that came from you, the people of Listuguj.

Moving forward, feedback@listuguj.ca will be an additional medium for the community to express themselves, bring concerns to our attention and receive information.

This e-mail will be monitored by the Communications Department. We will work in collaboration with the various departments within the LMG to ensure that your concerns are heard and addressed.

For example, you would submit a question, we will do our best to get you the answer as soon as possible. If we can’t immediately, we will work with the proper directorate to obtain your information and respond to you in a timely manner.

All concerns will be kept confidential when gathering the information for your question or concern. Your name and information will not be used without your permission.

We hope to be able to assist the community as best we could, and we thank you for your support and guidance.

Should you have any questions at any time you could contact feedback@listuguj.ca or any member of our Communications Team here at the LMG.

Listuguj Together with 21 First Nations Communities in Quebec and the Government of Canada Sign Historic Education Agreement

PRESS RELEASE

 

Listuguj, together with 21 First Nations Communities in Quebec, Attend Official Signing Ceremony of the Regional Education Agreement

 

July 15, 2022 by Dr. Amy Chamberlin – Research Associate, LETE Governance

July 14, 2022 (Kahnawà:ke, Quebec) Listuguj, together with 21 First Nations Communities in Quebec and the First Nations Education Council (FNEC), signed a Regional Education Agreement (REA) with Canada strengthening and advancing First Nations Control of First Nations Education for children and youth, from kindergarten to Grade 12. The signing ceremony took place on Kahnawà:ke territory at the Kahnawake Survival School.

Built in the spirit of reconciliation between Indigenous peoples and Canada, this regional agreement is intended to make certain that Indigenous learners have access to education that meets their needs and goals and reflects their respective worldviews and values while respecting the principle of First Nations Control of First Nations Education. (https://www.afn.ca/policy-sectors/education/).

“This is the action of reconciliation. The Agreement means that First Nations will lead the education of their children. It means that First Nations will ensure that culture, language, and identity are at the core of everything. It means that First Nations will have the resources that they need to hire and retain teachers and educators that will combine 21st century culture and technology with the historic culture and technology that is still alive today. This agreement has been designed by and for First Nations. This is a new reality in this country: Indigenous leadership, self-determination, true Nation-to-Nation relationships,” Indigenous Services Patty Hajdu said in the press conference.

The federal government, through Indigenous Services Canada, will provide 1.1 billion dollars in funding over five years. The federal government will provide an additional 310 million from Budget 2022, and 790 million will be transferred using existing funding structures.

“For communities, the funding provides for flexibility; we can set our own priorities and goals. The funding is sufficient, allowing each of us to take on First Nations Control of First Nations education,” said Chief Darcy Gray.

The result of 10 years of collective work, the agreement is based on a funding formula designed by and for First Nations members of the FNEC. The agreement will allow for:

  • Culturally relevant curriculum
  • Improved student success (academic outcomes).
  • Recruitment and retention of staff (teachers and specialized resources)
  • Increased student retention and high school graduation rates
  • Integrating technology into the classroom
  • Adequate funding for bus transportation

(Chief Darcy Gray signing collective agreement alongside Denis Gros Louis, FNEC Director General)

“This agreement is positive step forward in terms of reconciliation. Gives us the capacity in our communities to start bringing services that are equitable and comparable to provincial levels services. But also, more importantly, in terms of capacity to provide us with the tools to begin the decolonization of our education systems,” Chief John Martin of Gesgapegiag and representative of the Chiefs for the FNEC.

The agreement offers potential for transformation in the areas of curriculum, language, and Indigenizing the curriculum of the programs in First Nations schools. The signing ceremony marked a milestone in the renewed relationship between Indigenous Peoples and Canada and in the realization of Indigenous peoples’ rights to determine their respective pathways in education.

Listuguj Waste Sorting Guide

/in ,

The Listuguj Capital & Infrastructure Directorate has been taking the necessary steps to work towards a greener Listuguj.  Over the years we have placed multiple programs in place to provide greener services to Listuguj and we would like to clarify some things.

Below you will find a sorting Guide for our day to day waste and where it can be brought. This information packet provides the breakdown of what waste goes in what bin, where oils, paint and other materials can be brought and where  items like batteries and large pieces of metal should be disposed.

LCID would like to thank you for your participation in our greener approach and should you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact us at 418-788-3022.
