Pa g e 3 Pikwàk anagàn Tibadjumowin Secure Certificate of Indian Status and Cross Border Update Community Notice As of April 2012, approximately 35,000 secure status cards had been issued in total (23,000 of the domestic and 12,000 of the border crossing format). Intake began in border communities in 2009, with the first cards issued in December 2009. The cards are only available at a few locations, due to setbacks the government has incurred in implementing the system in which the cards are rolled out. Two formats of the Secure Certificate of Indian Status are available. A border secure format (with machine-readable zone) and a standard, domestic format of the SCIS are available. The new cards is a more reliable and secure form of identification and can be used to access federal programs and services such as non-insured health benefits and treaty annuities. The new secure CIS card will replace the existing laminated card. The existing laminated cards will still be valid until the expiry date has lapsed and the new secure status card becomes available. Cross Border Information: In 2009 the government of Canada received approval from the US to use the new SCIS card for entry into the US by water and land. A Canadian Passport is required to entry into the US by air. The Chiefs-in-Assembly have passed resolutions that direct the Chiefs of Ontario to advocate and ensure the privacy rights of First Nations are not affected during the practical use of the new SCIS card. As a result, First Nation citizens can choose if they would like to use their SCIS cards for cross border purposes. In order to receive this format, the applications go through two extra steps. 1) Declaration of consent to share information with Passport Canada, Canada Border Services Agency and US Customs and Border Protection. 2) A check to determine if any travel restrictions apply which is performed by Passport Canada. The laminated cards are still valid at border crossings along the Canada-United States border, as the new cards are being prepared for the First Nation peoples. This period of flexibility is entirely at the discretion of the US officials. Information on Obtaining a New Secure Certificate of Indian Status: The new cards are available to every First Nation person that posses status under the Indian Act. The following offices are currently accepting (in person) applications for the secure status card: AANDC Headquarters in Gatineau, AANDC Regional Office in Winnipeg, AANDC Regional Office in Regina, AANDC Regional Office in Calgary and Edmonton, and Treaty 7 First Nations Offices. The AANDC website advises that the remaining First Nations will continue to issue the current version of the status card (CIS). As of today, an exact date for the national launch of the new Secure Certificate of Indian Status has not been announced. The Chief’s of Ontario office will continue to monitor the status of the situation, and keep the First Nation informed of any changes. …..continued on page 4 Pa g e 4 Pikwàk anagàn Tibadjumowin …..continued from page 3 Bill C-3: Those applying for registration under Bill C-3 can apply for an in-Canada SCIS (domestic format) at the same time Bill C-3 has been passed into law. The government of Canada has not developed their guidelines for determining Bill C-3 eligibility and not much is known on the reasoning behind the setback. First Nation government must control the decision making on this issue. The government continues to state that they are trying to find a safe, secure way of making sure the right people gain access to the cards, and that they are not obtained by fraudsters. Status Update: At this time, INAC has suspended issuing the border crossing format until problems related to the travel verification check are resolved with US officials. Since the delay in processing the border secure cards has created a significant backlog, INAC will be issuing a reconfigured version of the in-Canada/ domestic format of the SCIS. As an interim measure, the reconfigured domestic format of the SCIS will be issued to all applicants. The field on the back of the card was modified and is now left blank. AANDC has received assurance from the US Department of Homeland Security that US officials will continue to accept the domestic SCIS and current CIS for entry into the US by land and water, without a deadline. AANDC also confirmed that they are working on the re-design of the card to include nationhood information (in addition to band name). It is unclear when the national roll-out of the SCIS will be completed.

Many students are looking forward to summer and months free of homework and tests. Still, this may be a bittersweet time for children who will miss teachers and friends. Here are several fun ways to start your child’s summer and celebrate their accomplishments. 1. Cook your kids favourite meal. Ask your kids what they want as a celebratory meal and have fun making it together. 2. Surprise the kids on the last day of school with a quick trip to a beach or hike through the woods. 3. Pop the tent, and some popcorn and set up a backyard camp. Tell stories, roast marshmallows and stare at the stars. 4. Take a drive to a nursery. Let the kids pick out a few vegetables or flowers to tend to over the summer. 5. Create a summer book chart, stock up on stickers to reward all the books your kids will read this summer. Decide on an end-of-summer reward when your kids reach milestones. POW WOW 2012 “Honoring Our Algonquin Spirit” We would like to get as many pictures as we can for this year’s 25th Pow Wow.

Pa g e 8 Pikwàk anagàn Tibadjumowin Announcing a New Community Program Several weeks ago we asked for volunteers to help with a new program called “The Lunch Box”. Thanks to these volunteers and our special funding, the program is almost ready to go and we are very excited to share it with the community. The Lunch Box program is intended to assist people to put nutritious food on the table. Unlike a food bank, where you choose your own groceries, the Lunch Box is an actual plastic container filled with all the non-perishable ingredients and instructions needed to make a nutritious, quick and easy meal for four people. There will be a choice of meals available each week, such as vegetable chowder, turkey with stuffing or tuna-noodle casserole. Each meal also comes with fruit for dessert. People who would like to receive a “Lunch Box” just need to telephone or stop by the Health Centre. You will be asked to sign-up for that week and can then come and pick up your box. Once the box is empty, it must be returned to the Health Centre within 1 week so that it can be re-filled and given out again. If you need to, you can ask for a new lunch box every week that the program runs. For more information or to sign-up, please call Reception at Health Services 613 625 2259 and ask about “The Lunch Box Program”. The Lunch Box is a confidential program that respects your privacy. Your information is not shared with any other program or department.

Foster parents work together with Pikwàkanagàn Child & Family Services/ Family & Children’s Services of Renfrew County staff to develop a plan for each child in care. The ideal plan is usually to reunite a young person with his or her family. When a reunion is not possible, the plan may require long-term foster care. Foster families play an essential role in the child's daily life. The stable and caring home environment that foster families provide helps encourage healthy growth and development.
