Global Transportation Hub Authority

Global Transportation Hub Authority located in Regina, Saskatchewan is one of Canada's several inland ports, along with Centre Port in Manitoba and Port Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta. As a Crown corporation of the Government of Saskatchewan, the authority is responsible for marketing, financing, planning, and attracting investment for an inter-modal transfer and logistics facility in Regina. The port consists of a 1,800-acre logistics park a few kilometres from the city of Regina. It is situated on the Canadian Pacific Railway mainline and near the Trans-Canada Highway and Highway 11. As an autonomous government entity, the GTH operates much like a municipality. It is responsible for its own land-use planning and development regulations, governance structure, sub-division approvals, permitting, and enforcement services. The Global Transportation Hub is also one of nine Foreign Trade Zone points in the country, and the only FTZ in Saskatchewan. As of July 2024 the hub has 18 business, with 1010.2 acres of land sold since its inception while 497 acres remain for sale. The Hub Authority has been criticized for showing maps where all of the land is full. Notable tenants at the hub include: Canadian Pacific Railway inter-modal facility capable of 250,000 TEU lifts annually Loblaw Western Canada Distribution Centre - consisting of one-million square foot distribution facility handling 1,400 trucks per week Consolidated Fastfrate (CFF) intermodal and distribution facility Cargill (Canola crushing Facility) 4Tracks Amazon Canada Fulfillment services (Purchased 14.35 acres in 2022) The Global Transportation Hub has become the subject of controversy over its involvement in a land purchase that disproportionately benefited businessmen with personal ties to Sask Party MLA Bill Boyd.

Government House (Battleford)

Government House in Battleford, Saskatchewan served as the seat for the government of the Northwest Territories between 1878 and 1883 (the area that now makes up Saskatchewan was part of the Northwest Territories until the province was created in 1905).

The building serves as a parish church, diocesan cathedral, private residence, meeting space, office building, library, archive storage, banquet hall and community centre. The building is designed in an anachronistic modernist style, which is not particularly contemporary, but seems to exemplify a late 1950s-60s attitude towards the future. Some of the cathedral stained glass windows are equipped with solar panels. This makes the church the first in North America to make use of photovoltaic cells in a stained glass installation. The installation makes use of 1,000 solar cells embedded in 54 panels. References

Fishing Lake First Nation

Fishing Lake First Nation (Ojibwe: Gichi-ginoozhewaaning) is a First Nation of the Saulteaux branch of the Ojibwe nation. Fishing Lake First Nation are Anishinabek people (original people of North America). The band can trace their origins to central Canada, and were pushed westward to avoid encroachment by European settlers. The First Nation was originally part of the Yellow-quill Saulteaux Band, a Treaty Band named after a Treaty 4 signatory Chief Ošāwaškokwanēpi, whose name means "Green/Blue-quill." However, due to "š" merging with "s" in Nakawēmowin (Saulteaux language), this led to a mistranslation of his name as "Yellow-quill"—"yellow" being osāw-, while "green/blue" being ošāwaško- (or osāwasko- in Saulteaux). The band was given three reserves, at Fishing and Nut Lakes (surveyed in September 1881) and Kinistin, Saskatchewan (surveyed in 1900). The Fishing Lake Indian Reserve 89 was approximately 22,850 acres (92.5 km2). Soon after the death of Chief Ošāwaškokwanēpi, the Band divided into three groups, the Fishing Lake First Nation, the Yellow Quill First Nation, and the Kinistin Saulteaux Nation In 1905 the Canadian Northern Railway Company requested that the northern end of the Fishing Lake Reserve be opened for settlement. The Yellow-quill Saulteaux Band initially refused to surrender the land. In response, the Department of Indian Affairs had the Yellow-quill Saulteaux Band sign an agreement recognizing the three separate reserves as distinct bands. In 1907 the department was able to secure the surrender of 13,170 acres (53.3 km2) from Fishing Lake Indian Reserve 89, dealing directly with the now distinct Fishing Lake First Nation. Negotiations for the return of the surrendered land began in April 1989 when the band submitted a claim to the Minister of Indian Affairs. During the subsequent inquiry by the Indian Claims Commission it was discovered that as many as three of the individuals who signed the surrender document in 1907 were less than 21 years of age. It was also discovered that the affidavit certifying the surrender was not properly sworn according to the statutory standards in place at the time. In 2001, a Settlement Agreement was ratified allowing the band to add 13,190 acres (53.4 km2) to the reserve. In addition, band members received $2,000 each, and elders 55 years of age or older received $4,000 apiece. The agreement was worth $35,000,000, and was Saskatchewan's largest land claim. In 2001, the initial Fishing Lake 1907 Trustees were William (Bill) Anderson, Leona Desjarlais, Laverne Knight, Jackie Ottmann, Janelle Bird, Lorraine Lysyshen and Milton Paquachan. There are presently 1,475 people registered with the Fishing Lake First Nation, of which 405 live on reserve. Their reserves include:. Fishing Lake 89 Fishing Lake 89A Fishing Lake 89D1 Sabitawasis Beach 89 C-1 Treaty Four Reserve Grounds 77, shared with 32 other bands. The Fishing Lake First Nation people continue to be economically and self sufficient. References

Cumberland House Cree Nation (Swampy Cree: ᑳ ᒥᓂᐢᑎᑯ ᒥᓇᐦᐃᑯᐢᑳᕽ, romanized: kâ-ministiko-minahikoskâhk, lit. 'Spruce Island') is a Swampy Cree First Nations band government in Saskatchewan, Canada. Their reserves include: Budd's Point 20D Cumberland House Cree Nation 20 Muskeg River 20C Pine Bluff 20A Pine Bluff 20B On September 7, 1876, Chief John Cochrane, along with councillors Albert Flett and Peter Chapman signed the Adhesion to Treaty Five at The Pas, Manitoba, on behalf of those residing in the territories of "Cumberland Island, Sturgeon River, Angling River, Pine Bluff, Beaver Lake and the Ratty Country," in an amalgamation known as the "Cumberland Band." John Cochrane served as Chief of the band until his death in the winter of 1879-1880. On September 2, 1880, Albert Flett was elected Chief. Peter Chapman resigned as councillor, and two new councillors were elected; John Harcus and William Head.Albert Flett served two consecutive terms, with Councillors Thomas Ballendine and Philip Canada being elected in 1883. On August 23, 1886, Samuel Greenleaf was elected Chief along with Councillors Philip Canada and Jeremiah Crane. By 1884, Councillor Philip Canada and “about ten families who, for some time, have farmed at Pine Island Bluff, some 20 miles northwest of Cumberland House” asked for a reserve at that location. However, a reserve at Pine Bluff was not surveyed until September 1912. Henry Budd also requested permission in 1884 “to settle on a piece of land good for farming between Cumberland and Birch River Reserves. This area later became known as Budd’s Point and a reserve of 640 acres was surveyed there in 1926. On August 14th, 1889, Albert Flett was selected, without election, as Chief, along with Councillors Jeremiah Crane and Samuel Greenleaf. Three years later, on August 5th, 1892, Jeremiah Crane was elected Chief for three years, along with Councillors Joseph Paul and George Cook. When the next election was held on August 5th, 1895, Albert Flett was again elected as Chief, with Joseph Paul and George Cook remaining in their positions as councillors. In October of 1896, Chief Albert Flett was sent from Cumberland to the Selkirk Asylum for the Insane in Southern Manitoba. During Chief Flett's time in Selkirk, Jeremiah Crane assumed position as "Acting Councillor" in place of the Chief, although it is currently unclear if he was elected into this position. In June 1897, a letter was sent to the Superintendent of Indian Affairs which stated that Chief Flett was "totally unfit to case for himself and that there is no present prospect of his recovery," and the minister recommended that Chief Flett be deposed as Chief of the Cumberland Band of Indians. Chief Flett died in Selkirk in November 1901, and the position of Chief remained vacant for several years. References External links Official website
