A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************
NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.B's - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
D.I.A.N.D. in Ottawa.
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilot the training program for teachers of Native
language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981. both progranmes (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma progranmes of
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
(Native Language Instructors Programme). "The Institute" began in
1980 as a directed studies programme for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United States
have come to us for training. We have appreciated the contribution
they have made to our broadening understanding of Native Language
education.
It is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will continue
to grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly a source of
practical assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario and
beyond.

A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilo� the training program for teachers of Native
language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981, both programs (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma programs of.
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
(Native Language Instructors' Program}. "The Institute" began in
1980 as a directed studies program for NlTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
I
■
-
NLTT (Native language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.8.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
0.1.A.N.O. in Ottawa.
■ I
■

Page 1
I� July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province
of Ontario, announced its new policy regarding Native Language
Education. Through the winter of /84 - /85 Ministry Officials
met with Lakehead University personnel to establish a Uative
language Teachers 1 "Certification" program leading to a letter
of standing after 3 sulllllers of work. In the summer of 1985, the
first "certification" program began, with the Algonkian group
continuing at Lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating at the
University of Western Ontario.
-
-
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in qua1ity as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United
States have come to us for training. We have appreciated the
contribution they have made to our broadening understanding of
Native language Education.

grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly

Sister Lenore Sullivan
lost her voice last year on
the first day or her new
job as a teacher at the
Gull Bay School.
· She didn't lose It
because she had to speak
all day - she's used to
lhat with 19 years of
teaching experience
behind her. Sister Lenore
said she lost her voice as
a result or shock. due to
the "big differences" she
round in teaching in a
Ill
II
reserve school.
'"The big ·thing was the
absence or supporting
structure. There were no
school policies. and the
expectations were loosely
defined,'' said Sister
Lenore.
The school on the Gull
Bay Reserve isn't even
remote in comparison to
some in the northern·
regions, such as the
Wlnlsk Reserve on Hud•
son's Bay. Al least the
Gull Bay Reserve. being
170 km north of Thunder
Bay on Highway 527. is
accessible by road.
It's a relatively new
school. having opened in
1983, and it contains some
modern conveniences
such as a computer.
photocopier. television
and typewriter. The 65
students at the school are
divided into three triple
grades. f r o m

years were graduating
from class to class
without achieving the pro

"'They haven't failed
anyone for years. It ·s nol
right." said Poile
This past June was only
the se<:ond year in which
a number of students
were told they would have
to repeat their year.
Students didn't fail and
it seemed that no one
cared if they reeei11ed a
proper educatkln. said
Polle. The school is fund•
ed by the Department of

fairs. and no one wanted
to think that a proper job
was not being done. he
said.
"It's better to educate

"We have the same pro

Lenore.
It's difficult to provide

curriculum they can't

A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************
NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.B.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
D.I.A.N.O. in Ottawa.
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilot the training program for teachers of Native
Language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981, both programs (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma programs of
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
{Native language Instructors' Program). "The Institute 11 began in
1980 as a directed studies program for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province
of Ontario, announced its new policy regarding Native Language
Education. Through the winter of /84 - /85 Ministry Officials
met with Lakehead University personnel to establish a Hative
Language Teachers' "Certification" program leading to a letter
of standing after 3 summers of work. In the summer of 1985, the
first "certification" program began, with the Algonkian group
continuing at lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating at the
University of Western Ontario.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United
States have come to us for training. We have appreciated the
contribution they have made to our broadening understanding of
Native Language Education.
It
continue to
a source of
Ontario and
is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will
grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly
practical assistance to Native Language Education in
beyond.

international c�tition among North American Indian

For a total of $6,0IXJ in prizes, Indians will be
invited to 5".)end the next ntAe months creating auth

moosehair-tufted lll.Jkluks in the windows of their
shoe stores.
But Sonja Bata eKhibited her knowledge of the ancient
Indian craft with samples•-including some expertly
crafted moccasins 1110re than 200 years old--from the
Bata shoe lll.JSeulll, located at the cornpany•s head

School Song
*************
O]ibway and Micmac,
Delaware and Cree
East, West and Central,
L and N, well, Gee
Come, teach your language,
be a trainee
Come share in the studies
at N.L.I.P.
The only place to be
•cause we've got a program,
second to none,
We learn to teach,
nd read and write
n our Native tongue
--0-- we get so confused
But, we've never refused
to get our lessons done,
N.L.I.P. is for me.

A HISTORY OF N,L.I.P.
NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an experimental program in
Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within the next two years, it expanded and developed
into what became I.A.8.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian and
Algonquian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven graduates received
NLTT certification from the Minister of D.I.A.N.D. in Ottawa.
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in Thunder Bay, to pilot
the training program for teachers of Native Language Arts for "first language"
communities.
In 1981, both programs (second language, and language arts) moved to Lakehead
University, to become diploma programs of the Faculty of Education with the name
changing to our present NLIP (Native Language Instructors' Program). The "Institute"
began in 1980 as a directed studies program for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has also become
part of University life, and "Institute" courses now are offered by Lakehead's
Faculty of Arts.
In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province of Ontario, announced
its new policy regarding Native Language Education. Through the winter of '84 and
'85, Ministry officials met with Lakehead
University personnel to establish a Native
Language Teachers' "Certification tt program leading to a letter of standing after
3 summers of work. In the surmier of 1985, the first "certification" program began,
with the Algonquian group continuing at Lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating
at the University of Western Ontario.
July 1986 saw the first 23 students receive their pennanent letter of standing
from the Ontario Ministry of Education as certificated'Algonquian Second language
teachers. In July, 1987, the first AQ course (level one) in Algonquian Second
Language teaching was held at Lakehead for holders of an Ontario Teaching Certificate,
with 9 teachers taking part. By 1987, enrollment in the various NL! programs had
soared to 121.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school, continues to grow in
quality as each year the best suggestions of student body and faculty continue to
shape the curriculum. Over the years. NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the
quality of its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native people,
students from other parts of Canada and from the United States have come to us for
training. We have appreciated the contribution they have made to our broadening
understanding of Native Language Education.
It is our hope that both NLIP and the ttlnstitute"-will continue to grow and
prosper and that they may become increasingly a source of practical assistance to
Native Lang�age Education in Ontario and beyond.

�To Members of the NLIP Family,
This is my last summer with NLIP, and once again the school has provided
in abundance moments of insight, friendship, heroism, and from which I will
carry with me as treasured memories:
*to those who have found it tough going, but have kept trying.
*to those who have gone the second, and third, and fourth mile to make
things better for the rest of us.
*to those who have shared insights, courage, jokes, wisdom, and even
masking tape.
-- a sincere "miikwehe"
Until now I have not thought much about the "atmosphere" of our school;
I've been too occupied with other things. But twice this week, I've heard
from visitors that the atmosphere on the 3rd floor of the Ryan Building is
friendly, open, unusually pleasant. Now that I've stopped to consider, it is
just that! That atmosphere is your gift to me, to take with me as I travel
east, and it's the best souvenir I could ever hope to have of NLIP!
The work of our school is truly important. That is, the Native Language
Study and Native Language Education that is taking place here in NLIP is
world-class, and of significance now and to future generations. It is setting
much of the direction as to where we are going in Native Language Education.
If the work itself can be described as where we are going, the human
qualities of loyalty, hard work, and caring may be described as how we are
getting there. I'm proud of you all on both counts. And as I bid you
farewell, I urge you: keep travelling!
Since my recent arrival at Lak.ehead University, l have had a warm
welcome from students, colleagu95 and r�dents of Thunder Bay. In every
class I have observed, students �rt friendly, approachable and very
Willingly introduced themsetve-s to me. Professors in the program are
co-o�rative, ��rts in their field and sincerely concerned about the
progress of their students. At this point, I must say, I am excited about the
challenges this position has to offer. I thank you for your warm welcome
and I am looking forward to working With each and �veryon� of you.

�A Note from the Principal
This summer·s Native Language School was quite
a success. The NLTC students appreciated their
practice teaching sessions being in the morning
and provided some wonderful learning experiences
for their students. Listening to the children after
class. I was able to hear how much they were
enjoying their summer school. Congratulations to
everyone - associate teachers (Jean, Angela,
Jackie. Lena, Jim, and Gary). ABQ students (Dawna.
Violet, and Chris). "Captain Video" (Seth), and
especially to you. the NLTC students. Keep up the
good teachingl

To Members of the NLIP Family,
This is my second summer with NLIP. The school has provided moments of
insight, friendship, heroism, courage, wisdom, and humour.
Memories from Summer 1990:
* students who found it tough, but kept going
* students who made things better for the rest of us
* students who shared insights, courage, jokes, and wisdom
* students who shared white glue and ideas
* students who showed others the fine art of laminating

The enrollment for year one NLTC increased by 100\. Due to the unforseen
increase, classes were much larger than usual. My thanks to first year
students for being patient and understanding; my thanks and appreciation to 0
faculty who stayed up to the wee hours of the morning helping and markin91
books; a tremendous thank you to all other students who assisted our first I o
year without complaint.
10
NLIP is a well established and well regarded school. It continues to grow in °
quality as each year the suggestions of student body and faculty continue to·
shape the curriculwn. Over the years NLIP has gained a reputation for the I 0
quality of its training. Although designed for Algonquian languages, students
from other parts of canada and from the United States come for training.
:

The work of our school is truly important, that is, the Native Language StudyO
and Native Language Education that is taking place here in NLIP is world clas
and of significance now and to future generations. The qualities of loyalty,o
hard work, and caring are helping us to retain Native Language for future
generations. I'm proud of all of you.

�A Note from the Principal
This summer I have had the pleasure to serve as Principal for Summer School,
1990. It has been great working with the children, the students and the
Associate teachers. In talking with the children, I have heard nothing but
good remarks about their classroom experiences.
I would like to say a special thank you to all the AO students that assisted
in the Summer School, the Associate teachers, Jean, Angela, Florrie,
Ernestine, Karen and our film crew, Patrick and Brian. Thank you everyone
who helped to make the childrens graduation a success.
CONGRATULATIONS to all the NLTC students. You have made the childrens
learning experience this swnmer enjoyable. I know you have all worked very
hard this summer and can now breath a sigh of relief. You should all be very
proud of yourselves. YOU MADE IT!
Meegwetch to everyone for your time and patience this summer.
finally say, "NO MORE CHANGES TO THE SCHEDULE".
I think I can
Good luck in the future and I look forward to seeing you all again.

1pted between Mohawks andpolice over the rights to land slotted for a mu•

A HISTORY OF NLIP
NLTI (Native Langua,e Teacher Training) began as an experimental program
in Fort Frances. Ontario. in 1973. Within the next two years. it expanded and develQped
inlo what became 1.A.B.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian and
Algonquian second language teachers In 1977. the first seven graduates received
NLTI certification from the Minister of D.J .A.ND in Oua.wa.
In 1978. a �cond experimental program was undertaken in Thunder Bay, to
pilot
the
training program for teachers of Native Language Arts for "first language"

..._-·
In 1981. both pro�rams (second lansuage, and language arts) moved to
La.kehead University. w become diploma programs of the Faculty of Educalion with the
name changing to our present NLIP (Native Language ln!-tructo.rs· Program). The
"ln!-tilute" began in 1980 as a directed studies program for NLTI!NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University Hfe. and· Institute· courses now are offered by
Lakehead's Faculty of Arts
Io July. 198◄. the Ministry of Education for the Province of Ontario. announced
its new policy regarding Native Language Education. Throush the winter of '8◄ and '85.
Ministry officials met with Lak.ehead University personnel to establish a Native
Language Teachers· ··certification" program leading to a letter of standing after 3
summers of work In the summer of 1985, the first ··certification" program began. with
the A1tconquian group continuing at lakehead. The Iroquoian group ;oined Lakehead
in 1991
July 1986 saw the firsl 23 students receive their permanent letter of standing
from the Ontario Ministry of Education as certificated Algonquian Second Language
Teachers. In JuJy, 1991. t.he first graduating class of the AQ programme for boJders of
an Ontario Teaching Certificate consisted of 9 leachers By 1991, enrolment in t..he
various NLI programs had soared to 221.
NLIP. ,·hile now an established and well-regarded school. continues lo grow in
quality as each year the best suggestions of student body and facuUy continue t.o shape
the curriculum Over the years. NLIP has come to enjoy a repuiation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario s Native people. studenlS from
other parts of Canada and from the United States have come to us for training We have
appreciated the contribution they have made to our broade.nio� understanding of
Native Language Education
It is our hope that both NLIP .uid the ''Institute� will continue to grow and
prosper and thal they may become increasingly a source of practical assistance to
Native Language Education in Ontario and beyond.
�To Members of the N.L.I.P. Family,
During my first summer at Lakehead University, I was quoted as
saying, "I'm glad to be here." Over the past three years, the feeling
has not changed.
--
This summer we had 227 registered in the various N.L.I Programs.
Year four of the Diploma Program will have forty-seven graduates;
Part Ill Specialist in Native as a Second Language will graduate nine
candidates.
Memories from Summer 1991:
twelve students in year one over fifty-five years of
age;
grand feast, pow-wow for the Welcoming Ceremony;
Sonny and Jo Mikaere, Edena and Kitty join us from New
Zealand;
elders Richard Lyons, Alex Skead, Walter Linklater, Robin
Green, George Kenny, Ernestine Buswa, and Jean Shawana,
to share their experiences in cultural knowledge during
the evenings;
eighty-five children in NSL class;
year two and year three students going out of their way
to assist year one students;
Addition of lroquian students;
addition of our full-time councillor Gilda Dokuchie,
always smiling , and dreaming of fishing;
young children supervised by Heather, Leroy, Michelle,
and Leslie;
N.L.I.P. is a well established and well regarded component of the
School of Education. It continues to grow in quality as each year the
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the
years N.L.I.P. has gained a reputation for the quality of its traim·ng.
The work of our school is truly important, that is the Native
Language Study and Native Language Education that is taking place
here in N.L.I.P. is world class and of significance now and to future
generations. The qualities of loyalty, hard work, and caring are
helping us to retain Native Language for future generations. I'm
proud of you.
May the Great Spirit Guide You,
Barbara Toye-Welsh, Coordinator,
Native Language Instructors' Program

IMMERSION: THE FJRST STEP
More than ever. First Nations Boards of Ed�tion are questioning the effectiveness of
native language training in their schools. and a:re discovering that total immersion is the
only answer for language retention and maintenance. The Native Language teKher. as
the front line worker, is often approllched to provide direction and conaete solutions to
this undertaking. This workshop will addre$S the Native Language teacher's role and
the sequential steps that could be followed in setting up a language immersion progta.m.

BEYOND1lfESOUNDOFTHE DRUM
The purpose of the presentation is to show that the cultural aspects are indeed very
important components of teaching units. When tellching the Ojibwe language it is an
opportunity to integrate culture into the Native language curriculum. Culture is a
medium used to develop a self identity or cultural identity. The topic 'Beyond the
Sound of the Drum' has many, many considerations. The presentation is an overview
which encompasses some of these, mainly the Ojibwe version of the drum's origin. the
presenter's personal experience in making a hoop drum and the sharing of a teaching
unit. HandouIS will be available upon request. Mii gwech.

HARVESTINGT
CANADIAN BEAVER
This workshop is on the harvesting of the beaver. It shall proceed from the time a
suitable beaver lodge is found, occupied by the subjects; through various sages of
trapping. skinning. stretching and drying. to the point where the beaver is shipped out
10 the market. It is very important to keep this type of Cultural Activity within the
Native communities as a means of identity, as it has bt.e.n a part of the Native way of
life for centuries. Ideas on the present decline of the market value - as to why and maybe
how as trappers, individuals can help rectify the problem.

�MONTHEAL <CP> - Al the
end of four days or ceremonies
marking the first anniversary
of the Oka land claims crisis,
Mohawk spiritual leader John
Cree said, "The past is over and
now we have to build for the fu
ture."
But the mood of forgive and
forget was not universal.
As the Kahnesatake native
spoke on Sunday, about 30 Indi
ans from every region in Can
ada sat in a circle in another
part of the disputed Oka pine
forest, pounding drums and
chanting, "Hai ya, hai ya, hai
ya, hai ! Mohawk Warriors
kicked your ass!"
Some or the non-natives pre
sent shuHled their feet and
looked embarrassed.
In another circle, about 100
stood silently as an interpreter
translated into English the
statements of an elder from the
interior of British Columbia
during a tobacco-burning cere
mony.
He said he had been lrained
as a young man to keep tears
Crom his eyes but that the peo
ple listening should understand
h e was inwardly moved at
meeting the Mohawks who had
been through so much and sad
lo be leaving his new friends to
return home.
In yet another circle, the
drums beat more slowly as Sal
ish Indians from the Vancouver
area, Cree from Saskatchewan,
Micmac from Nova Scotia, and
Seminoles from Florida em
braced a young Mohawk vet
eran of last summer's 78-day
standoff and said goodbye.
The standorr began when pro
vincial police stormed a Mo•
hawk barricade erected outside
Oka to stop the expansion of a
golf course onto land claimed as
sacred by the Indians. A provin•
cial police oHicer was killed in
the bungled raid and Mohawks
at Kahnawake, near Montreal,
blocked a major commuter
bridge in sympathy with the
Oka natives.
Cree said the four days of
prayers. songs, dances and
speeches were supposed to be
part of a !waling pr(x•css.
Native leaders like Manitoba
MLA Elijah Harper, or Lone
lighter Milton Born-With•A·
Tooth, an Alberta Peigan, told
the people of Kahnesatake lhat
despite the fact their commu
nity is stilldivided and their
land problem is unsettled, their
actions last summer earned the
respect of native people across
Canada.
The atmosphere in Kahna
wake, the other Montreal-area
Mohawk community was com-
But Saturday and Sunday
thousands of natives and non
natives flocked to Tekakwitha
Island on the reserve south of
Montreal.
WATCHED DANCING
They watched the dancing, in
spected handicrafts, ate some
of the exotic food like "Real Na
·vaho Taco Burgers" or Resti
gouche salmon dinners and just
looked around.
Last September, there was a
violent confrontation on the is
land between Canadian Forces
troops searching for hidden
weapons and angry Mohawks
armed with rocks. Several sol
diers and natives were injured
in lhc mclce.
Sunday, il looked like a coun
lrv fair.
Monique Turcotte, a young
mother from Chateauguay who
was there with her baby, said
she hadn't planned to come at
all.
"I was arraid that somebodv
might cause trouble," she said.·
"Nol necessarily the Indians.

violent anti-Mohawk protests

Mohawks closed a commuter

Oka.
"But I wanted to see what it
was like,'· Turcotte said.
"�'hen nothir.g bad happened
Saturday, ( decided to come.

At one pomt Sunday after
noon, an allractive, middle

some lime away from her hand

ing. She asked the big French
C'anadia n man sitting next to

�Coordinators' Message ...
The summer of 1992 has been eventful, exciting, sad, and memorable. Eventful because of the planned
activities that were successful. fun, and provided an opponunity for students to relax. Exciting because
first year students settled in quickly, became involved in course work immediately, were inquisitive yet
provided much cultural and/or traditional information when sharing. Sad for those who experienced
illness, death, and unplannedjourneys. Memorable for each and everyone of us ...because of a smile,
a tear, a ray of sunshine, the sound of a drum, or ...
During the 1992 summer school, students participated in many events.There were pot luck suppers, ball
games, volleyball games, bingos, videos, and much more. Elders from the province joined us to share
their knowledge. A dance and banquet at The OutpOSt created a grand opponunity to swing and sway
to the music. The worlcroom in the Bora Laskin became an evening meeting place to work, meet new
friends, socialize, and relax.
Michelle JeanJean, a graduate student form Paris, France, travelled over the Atlantic Ocean to study with
Tom Beardy in his Introductory Ojibwe class. Noxolo Mgudlwa, Phumzile Sotashe, and Tholakele
Maphalala travelled. from Capetown, South Africa to participate in and observe the program. They are
coordinators with the National Language Project in Capetown. Rama Agnihotti, an Applied linguist
from the University of Delhi, taught a year four methods course. Sonny and Josephine Mikaere, from
Wanganui, New Zealand, returned for another summer to teach third year courses. Russell Bowd
travelled from Central Minnesota to participate in the Herbal Medicine and Parent/Community
Involvement Workshops.
N.L.I.P. is a well establishedprogram.It continues to grow i n quality as the students and faculty continue
to shape the curriculum. Over the years, N.L.I.P.has gained a reputation for the quality of its training.
We are recognized in Ontario as the Centre for Native Language Teacher Training and around the world
as the Indigenous Language Centre.
The work of the program is ttuly important. The Native Language Study and Native Language Teacher
Training that is taking place here at N.L.I.P.is indeed world class. It is of significance now and to future
generations. The quality of loyalty, dedication, hard work, and caring are helping us to retain Native
Language for future generations.
This is a sad time for me, as I bid you farewell.At the end of August, I will be at Arctic College developing
a Native Teacher Education Program for Athapaskan language speakers. My bean will be with you. I
have watched each and everyone of you grow. become committed to the language and your people.
Never have I worked with people so dedicated. I am proud and feel honoured to have worked with you.
I am sure our paths will cross again in the future.
May the Great Spirit Guide You. Che Meegwetch.

The Inside Pieces of ...
Student Life
Students have been in a state of con.fusion since the
first day of classes. Just as everyone got settled in the
Bora Laskin, the move to the Ryan Building was
made, bringing more puzzled looks from students.
After getting used to the change and finding the
location ofclasses, everything moved back to the Bora
Laskin Building.
Being in class from 8:30 in the morning to 4:30 in the
afternoon has made the summer a busy one. When not
rushing off to classes, students are seen on the field, in
the malls, at ML McKay, at the Old Fon, or relaxing
near the townhouses. Everyone has managed to find
some spare time to enjoy thcmselves. It has been a full
summer of great times and fond memories.
�N.L.I.P. Spirit
and the Creati on of Our Native Language C ommunity
NLTI (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an experimental program in Fon Frances,
Ontario in 1973. Within the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became Indian Affairs
Branch's Ontario Regional Native As A Second Language training program for Iroquoian and
Algonquian second language teachers. In 1977 the first seven graduates received NL.TT certification
from the Minister of the Department of Indian and Nonhem Development in Ottawa.
In 1978, a second experimental program was undenaken in Thunder Bay to pilot the training
program for teachers of Native Language Ans for first language communities.
In 1981. both the second language and language ans programs moved to Lakehead University to
become diploma programs of the Faculty of Education. The name changed to the present N.L.I.P.
(Native Language Instructors' Program). The Institute began in 1980 as a directed studies program for
N.L.T.T./N.L.I.P. graduates. It has also become pan ofUniversity life, and offers courses in Literature:
The Oral Tradition, Linguistics, Computers, and Research.
In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province of Ontario, announced a new policy
regarding Native Language Education. Through the winter of 1984 and 1985, Ministty officials met with
Lakehead University personnel to establish a Native Language Teachers' Certification Program leading
to a letter of standing after 3 summers of work. In the summer of 1985, the first certification program
for Algonquian Language began at La.kehead. The Iroquoian Program moved to Lakehead in 1991.
In July of 1986, the first 23 students received a pennanent letter of standing from the Ontario
Ministry of Education as certificated Algonquian Second Language Teachers. In July of 1991, the first
graduating class of the AQ programme for holders of an Ontario Teaching Certificate consisted of 9
teachers. By 1992 enrollment in the various programs soared to 227.
N.L.I.P., while now an established and well-regarded school. continues to grow in quality as each
year the best suggestions of student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the years,
N.L.I.P. has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of its training. Although designed for Ontario's
Native people, students from other pans of Canada. the United States, France and South Africa have
come to participate in the program. We have appreciated the contribution they have made to our
broadening understanding of Native Language Education.
It is our hope that the Native Lan guage Instructors' Program will continue to grow and provide
the development, maintenance and revitalization of assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario.

�Poetry
Drinking
I wrestle with my conscience
over my drinking.
But let's face it, I'm a better
drinkerthan I am a wrestler.
I have a drinking problem.
I haven't enough money to
buy all that I can handle.
I never ann.k too much.
OthelWise I can't stand myself.
I have to have help.
I never let liquor pass my lips.
As soon as it even approaches
them I drink it
Nobody can say I'm lazy.
I'm always carrying a load.
I spent years vainly searching
for truth and beauty,
and then I finally found myself.
I have put up a good fight
with liquor.
Now I can go ten rounds
before I'm knocked out

�Acting Coordinator's Messa ge •••
The Native Language Instructors• Program for 1993 has come and gone. Being a pan of the program
has always been imponant to me, and rve always greatly enjoyed working with NLIP faculty. staff.
and especially students. As I look back upon my role as Acting Coordinator for the past year, rve
had a different perspective on NLIP. The last year has been an infonnative and challenging one for
me and I hope that the results of the preparation done over the last year have made NLn> 1993
enjoyable and wonhwhile for you. Despite some unexpected 'events' such as the sudden closing of
the Ryan Building, I hope that the summer was a successful and satisfying one for you.
The spirit of NLIP comes from the efforts of many people, in particular the srudents and our
excellent faculty members. Special thanks are due to Sonya Bruyere and Judy Turrie, the hard
working NLIP secretaries. Much of the success of the program this summer is because of their
energy and enthusiasm. Everyone connected with NLIP is in their debL
rm also looking forward to the future. I know that Lena White, the new Coordinator of NLIP will
be working bard to maintain the high quality of the program. and to make it even better. I'm looking
forward to working with her, and I'm sure that she will be contributing to NLIP in her new position,
much as she has already done as an instructor and as a student.
-John O'Meara
�Coordinator's Message ...
Aanii: I BooiJtoo:
As I begin my dutic.s as Coordinator, I feel excited and fortunate because I will be working in a program where lhe
faculty and staff and student teachers share common beliefs in the importance of revitalizing our Native languages.
The Native Language Instructors• Program is unique. While it offers programs (or t he preparation of leachers of Native
Language. it provides a great opportuni1y for our teachers in relearning and retrieving our traditions. Much sharing of
Native teachings takes place and these get incorporated in the lesron planning where appro priate, and in everyday life.
Swdents in various programs gain lhe knowledge, skills and values penincn t in a teaching environment. Along wilh this
lcaming. self-awarcn� in personal development is the key. Swdents develop self-<:onfidence and a strong sense of
responsibility in their roJe as a teacher. This also gives NLIP a sense of positive energy. Each year. lhe program gets
stronger. As our Native communities get stronger in their language development, we feel those energies comprised of
the knowledge and traditions that are being shared during the summer lhat makes our program very special and proud
because of its vision and accomplishments.
I feel honoured IO be part of this vision and growth at NLIP. and look forward IO working with you in our program and
IO give you support in your fuwre cndeavoW'S. Gchi-miigwech gii-bi-z�g. Bamnaa pii miinwaa gga-waabminim.
In the Spirit of NLIP,
Lena Odjig White

�NLIP Student Council - President's Message •..
Mii Sa Minnwaa, Ngoding!
Mii sa miinwaa, ngoding gii-giishtoonying waa-gchi-naad-maagying.
Mii sa miinwaa ngocling gii-waamdaying
Mii sa miinwaa ngocling bedbik gii-nmadbiying. zhibiigeying

There has been another year of laughter combined with fatigue, loneliness and frustration for some but
now all too soon, the day has come for us to pan again.
I've had a great time here! It•s been different every year but what I find most intriguing is the fact of
getting to know your fellow students, just a little better. The "Westerners" have played a very imponant
role this summer and it is one filled with emotion. love and honour. I hope you don'r mind my saying
"Westerners" but that's how we•ve been defined through NLIP, Western Ojibwe, Eastern and Central
Eastern - all because of dialect differences.
The Year 4 class has no boundaries of dialect, and many thanks to Randy Valentine, Instructor, for
teaching the way he did. He acknowledged us in his teaching method as "all being one" regardless of
who or where we are. A bond was always approached and defined through culture and language,
especially how we arrive at certain words. He strengthened the bond we felt for another.
We, people from down south, outspoken and silly in contrast to the people from up north who were
reserved and quiet all came forward full strength and showed everyone who they were and I love them
for it Throughout the years we have learnt and gained knowledge and ways oflife not to mention a pride
for each other. We were one in body, mind and spirit.
The man from up north who took us to a "lovely banquet" was one Roger Oskineegish and his wife,
Emma. Emma has been in class from the beginning and has been one of the most smiling, admired, and
richest people I have met (richness - not in the sense of money)- from the bottom of our hearts we thank
Roger for a time we will never for get. May he be blessed at an even greater measure in his business
and the work he is doing for his people back home. We love you both!
It's very hard for me to write a shon dialogue because my bean is bubbling with emotions and love for
my/our people and I find I easily get overwhelmed. because I see them for who they/we are and if we keep
moving ahead, the time will come when we will be the Head and not the Tail. It's on it's way!
The 50/50 draws were $156.00 for the first draw, a $60.00 picture donated by Stewart McCue for the
second draw and $52.00 for the third which was won by Christie Okimaw. There was yet another draw
at the NLIP Feast held at the Friendship Centre - Gary Hannam won $56.00, and $25.00 by Willy John.
There were others who won but I am unable to think of their names at the momenL I do know that they
were pleased they won.
Last weekend we had a "Fun Day" and we had such a great time that our sides were hutting from laughing
so hard. The races and "Gookoosh" was very comical to watch. People who didn't show up sure missed
a good time! It was there again that we got even more acquainted to new people and friends. The events
I am referring to were Saturday, July 17 and Sunday, July 18th. We took a break and served hot dogs
and pop. It was nice having all the young people in my room as we talked about school and education.
�The members of the Student Council have worked to better the environment and atmosphere on
University campus living. The Student Council also formed a bond and it went on to others like Norman
Beaver who helped set up equipment for entenainment at the "Feast". He approached me and said "Can
I help you?" I looked at him questioningly. He just smiledd and said "I'm volunteering to help you".
So I began to tell him about the Feast and that's when he volunteered to look after the entenainment
aspect - what a great guy! He tells me he has just made arrangements to have an album come out and
I hope each and every one of you will make an effon to buy it. I feet very strongly that he deserves the
recognition not to mention any profits.
All of the Instructors that ever taught us will be long remembered and the input they placed within us.
It will be a great benefit to us for years to come. GCHJ-MIIGWECH, TO All on behalf of the 1993
NLIP Student Council and fourth year students. Gchi-miigwech gii-bezhaayaang maanpii!
May all your wiigwams be filled with laughter
May your classrooms be filled with "cheer,.
May this day be long remembered
As you journey far and near!
Maanoo miinwaa ngoding, nga-nkweshkdaadmin!

Roger Oskineegish who donated roast beef dinner to his wife (Emma's) 4th year Graduating class
and her instructors. The dinner was held at the Ramada Inn. Through all their trials and tribula

attending school during the summer, and has his own log-house building company in Summer

�Events • • .
On Thursday, July 15, Native Crafts Night was held on the second floor of Rainy River Lounge.
Among items presented and sold were keychains, polar bear tooth neclaces, moccasins, birchbark
picture frames, song tapes, native designed materials, dream catchers, sweetgrass baskets, and
earrings. All the items were made by our students or instructors. It turned out to be a great success.
The NLIP Pot Luck was held at the Thunder Bay Indian Friendship Centre on Thursday, July 22.
Food and bannock was brought and a Karioki provided lots of entertainment for all. The friendship
centre facilities were very good and the NLJP group was very comfortable. The festivities wound
up around midnight In all, fun was had by all!
The total NLIP enrollment figures for 1993 is 147 students, down from last year. One reason for
this is that the Iroquian students are now studying at Brock University near St. Catherines, Ontario.
Townhouses for the handicapped (near Balmoral Street) were completed prior to July.
Visual Arts Building was completed between the campuses.
Alan Bowd, Director of Education has resigned from his position as Director and will go back to
teaching. Good Luck Alan!
David Bates became the new Director of the School of Education effective July 30, 1993
Delores Wawia accepted a new position at McMastcr and will be leaving Lakchcad - Good Luck
Delores!
Ruby Farrell becomes the Acting Coordinator for the N1EP program.
NLIP office has a new home! Now we have office space inside the School of Education and we say
farewell to the BL 1032 Portable.
John O'Meara resumes his linguistic endeavors and retires his Acting Coodinator position. Thanks
to John for commandeering the NLIP program through its transition.
Lena White becomes NLIP Coordinator. Welcome to the Native Language Instructors' Program
Lena and best of luck in your new home and career direction.
Judy Tunie will be leaving the NLIP program in August but only for a short time. We are counting
on having her back next year. Thanks for all your help Judy, we'll miss you!
Did you know that Sonya. the NLIP Secretary, has an admirer who sends flowers from Edmonton?
Maybe there are wedding bells in the making?
�Sonya and Judy selected the Grey and Burgundy colour for NLIP 1993. The 1992 Graduating class
were the first ones exposed to the color theme as they received dreamcatchers in the grey and bur
gundy which Sonya made for the Grads. During the month of July, T-shirts displaying the colours
were available at $17.00, children's T-shirts were $12.50, mugs were $5.00 and NLJP lapel pins
were also available for $5.00.
A new twist, Mallon's Corporate lmpr�ions. helped Sonya provide satin and nylon jackets,
sweatshirts and caps as well as the t-shins, mugs, pens, badges and lapel pins. These were special
order items which could be personalized. The response to this service was favourable and we hope
to make it a regular service through our office.

Dr. Randy Valentine, congratulations on yourrecent appointment!
