In 1899, a seventeen-year-old young man from thePiikani Nation in Brocket, Alberta (Treaty 7territory) died of tuberculosis at Calgary’s onlyresidential school: St. Dunstan’s Anglican School(1896-1907). He was buried on a hill above theschool overlooking the Bow River (south ofpresent-day Bonnybrook Wastewater TreatmentPlant in Ogden). His grave was piled with stonesand surrounded by a white picket fence. There hisgrave remained, outlasting the school at which hehad been a resident.While many other Indigenous children in southernAlberta died while attending residential schools, atSt. Dunstan’s they were sent home when theycontracted an illness or injury and died with theirfamilies. Jack’s circumstance is the only knownexception at this school, although his name and hisstory were forgotten over time his grave remained.In 1956 the Calgary Albertan newspaper ran a storyasking for help in identifying the name of theperson buried there. This brought the grave'sexistence to the attention of local historian HughDempsey and his father-in-law Senator JamesGladstone. James had attended St. Dunstan’s at thesame time as Jack. With a name now in handDempsey took it upon himself to maintain the site.By 1971 the destruction of the grave was imminentdue to industrial development in the area.Dempsey and the Reverend David Carter with thehelp of city Alderman John Ayer, secured permitsto have the remains moved to one of The City’scemeteries. The Land Department was also awareof the grave and purchased a cemetery plot. OnSeptember 30, 1971, the remains of Jack WhiteGoose Flying were re-interred in Queens ParkCemetery.Jack’s story is important on many levels. It is partof a shared history between the Indigenous peopleof Treaty 7 (where several nations involved havebeen signatories in treaty) andnon-Indigenous Calgarians. Unfortunately it is nota history many Calgarians know about. It bearswitness to the fact that Indian residential schoolsexisted in Calgary and surrounding areas. Manyresidents living today still experience the aftermathof their traumatic effects, directly or indirectly.Therefore, it is a story about what could have beendone better.On the other hand, it is also a story about what wasdone with unusual foresight and respect at a timewhen other Canadian cities did not always embodythis kind of cultural sensitivity. It is also a storyabout a possible path forward, in building a newfuture together.3

At times the content revealedin the Summary Report wasemotionally difficult to processfor all CAUAC members andresource staff. For this reason,members felt it was important tocapture the ‘human side’ of thiswork, so that readers never lostsight of the fact that some ofthese children—now grown andmany still alive—went throughthe trauma of residential schoolsand call Calgary home today.This sentiment is captured in thephotograph/poem segments,found herein, which were writtenby CAUAC members via a sharedcontent analysis process.6

urban Indigenous issues such as poverty,homelessness, addictions, unemployment, violenceand incarceration.In July 2015, the Calgary Aboriginal Urban AffairsCommittee (CAUAC) received direction fromCalgary City Council to discuss truth andreconciliation. In particular, CAUAC was todetermine which of the 94 Calls to Action from theHonouring the Truth, Reconciling for the Future; Summaryof the Final Report of the Truth and ReconciliationCommission of Canada (2015) are actionable byCalgary’s municipal government (Notice of MotionNM2015-17).The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC)Summary Report raises awareness of the truehistory and legacy of Indian residential schools,sheds light on survivor impacts over severalgenerations, details the consequences ofcolonization, and provides an enlightenedopportunity to understand historically intractabletheThe Calls to Action identified in this White GooseFlying report are the result of several months ofdeliberation by CAUAC members. As keyrepresentatives of Calgary’s urban Indigenouscommunity, CAUAC sought to identify Calls toAction for The City to address that: are directed specifically at municipalities, or 'alllevels of government' are feasible, and which The City has the abilityto implement are impactful enough to reach the greatestnumber of individuals and families(non-Indigenous Calgarians included) are appropriately aligned to existing Cityinitiatives and policies.lesson.Why are we here andwhat do you want from us?Our hearts are breaking.What did we do to deserve this?I am filled with fear, I amhollow inside,Who am I ?Poem by CAUAC members'Thou shalt not tell lies' written on blackboard (school and date unknown)7

CAUAC is recommending that Calgary City Council approve three categories of recommendation:(five streams): corporate-wide priorityactions requiring investment and implementationthrough a multi-year, multi-pronged approach.(three streams): actions requiringCity departments or affiliates to take the lead onstakeholder collaborations and shareimplementation, particularly at beginningstages.(four streams): actions requiringCity Council to call for leadership fromorganizations outside of municipalgovernment—specifically those which havedirect or indirect bearing on socio-economicissues affecting Indigenous and non-Indigenouscitizens, and which have a role to play inreconciliation.Appendix A identifies the principles the TRC outlined that will assist Canadians in moving forward inreconciliation.Federation of Canadian Municipalities Identified Calls to ActionFive Calls to Action were identified by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, as containing the word‘municipal’ in them (full-wording in Appendix B). CAUAC felt these were very important and should beimplemented in due course.# 43Adopting the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP) requiresdirection from the federal government first (endorsed 'aspirationally' in 2010 but notimplemented) before it can be considered at a municipal level. That being said, somecomponents of UNDRIP will be addressed in the forthcoming Indigenous PolicyFramework in 2017.# 47Repudiating concepts used to justify Euro-specific sovereignty (Doctrine of Discovery) alsorequires federal leadership. Until this occurs, CAUAC hopes to present thinking inthe Indigenous Policy Framework, building on imagineCalgary principles.# 57Public sector staff training on Indigenous issues, intercultural competency,conflict resolution, human rights and anti-racism is a high priority, and themost important investment The City can undertake.# 75Documenting, commemorating and protecting school cemeteries and human remainswill not require much work, as only one known school burial has been located inside citylimits.# 77Collecting and sending archival records to the National Centre for Truth andReconciliation will not require much in the way of resources, as only one residentialschool (St. Dunstan’s, in Ogden) has been identified.8

CAUAC believes that if The City of Calgary wereto implement the three categories identified on thetop of page 8 (encompassing 43 of the total 94 Callsto Action recommended by the TRC), The Citywould be moving toward sustainable reconciliation.Indigenous Calgarians have been in survival modefar too long making successful transition towardsreconciliation not only desired but critical in orderto heal and thrive.The work of reconciliation is just beginning.Recommendations contained in this report will helpcreate a “more equitable and inclusive society byclosing the gaps in social, health and economicoutcomes. [as realized through] joint leadership,trust building, accountability and transparency.”[ 2 ]divide & conquer.grandmotherI see and feel your sadness,assimilationlanguagelostmissing a generationsadness, sadness all aroundPoem by CAUAC members'Explorers' from Norway House School holding service in thehome of a community member, 19599

Seven generations of Indigenous children (150,000in number) were removed from their families andwent through the Indian residential school system.This occurred predominantly in the western andnorthern parts of Canada. They were taught thattheir lives were not as good as the lives ofnon-Indigenous people, their languages andcultures were irrelevant, their people and theirancestors were pagans, heathens and uncivilized,and that they needed to be assimilated. At the sametime non-Indigenous children in other schoolsystems in this country were being taught the samething.[ 3 ] This unexamined, flawed premise—perpetrated on children[ 4 ] for over 100 years, andwhich continues to affect all of Canada’s socialinstitutions to this day—has sparked a chain ofevents resulting in intergenerational trauma thelikes of which Canada has never seen before.“The history of residential schools presented inthis [Summary] report commenced by placingthe schools in the broader history of the globalEuropean colonization of Indigenous peoplesand their lands. Residential schooling was onlya part of the colonization of Aboriginal people.The policy of colonization suppressedAboriginal cultureand languages,disrupted Aboriginalgovernment,destroyed Aborinomies, and confinedAboriginal people to marginal and oftenunproductive land. When that policy resultedin hunger, disease, and poverty, the federalgovernment failed to meet its obligations toAboriginal people. That policy was dedicatedto eliminating Aboriginal peoples as distinctpolitical and cultural entities and must bedescribed for what it was: a policy of culturalgenocide.Despite being subjected to aggressiveassimilation policies for nearly 200 years,Aboriginal people have maintained theiridentity and their communities. They continueto assert their rights to self-governance. In this,they are not alone It is time to abandon the colonialpolicies of the past, to address thelegacy of the schools, and toengage in a process ofreconciliation with theAboriginal peopleof Canada.” [ 5 ]Ice House at the CalgaryIndian Industrial School,(St. Dunstan's) with IsolationHouse in the background(building where sick childrenwere housed).(photo credit, Hugh Dempsey 1968)10

Evidence presented through the TRC process hasestablished that the residential school system wascreated intentionally to eliminate parentalinvolvement in the social, spiritual, cultural andintellectual development of Indigenous children.[ 6 ]The Truth and Reconciliation Commission createdin 2008 as part of the settlement agreementbetween the Government of Canada, the churchesand survivor parties to the Indian ResidentialSchool Settlement Agreement (IRSSA) has soughtto remedy all this through a truth and reconciliationprocess.Alberta had the most residential schools of anyprovince, at 26 (by some counts 30). One Calgaryschool was discovered within city limits in Ogden(see Jack’s Story, page 3, for more detail). Therewere several residential schools surroundingCalgary including two in the Piikani Nation, twofor the Kainai Tribe, two at the Siksika Nation, oneknown as Dunbow School, or St. Joseph’s (close toHigh River), one at the Stoney Nation and one atthe Tsuut’ina Nation. In total, 10 residentialschools in and around Calgary took Indigenouschildren from their families for 111 years. The lastof these schools remained under governmentcontrol, including Kainai, which assumedtribal/band control in 1975.The Mayor’s Proclamation for the Year ofReconciliation in March, 2014 expressed that“The City of Calgary will use the lessons ofreconciliation to continue the work we have startedthrough.the Calgary Aboriginal Urban AffairsCommittee, the imagineCalgary plan, and the CalgaryPoverty Reduction Initiative to ensure that ourAboriginal population has a meaningful role withinour community, as full and equal participants in ourcity’s quality of life.It is essential that Calgariansof every culture and tradition walk on a shared pathpaved with opportunity, recognizing that we areconnected to each other and to this place, whereour collective spirit generates enough for all.”Tasked with developing recommendations forthose TRC Calls to Action The City of Calgarycould undertake, CAUAC members committed to afive-month process of reading the 528 pageSummary Report in its entirety, followed mediareports and engaged in two relational mappingsessions to review all 94 CTAs.CAUAC approached ‘reconciliation’ with theperspective of living in a 21st century global worldwhere Canada’s place as a prosperous, just andinclusive democracy is at stake. Divisive conflictsover education, child welfare, justice, treaty rights,land rights and equality are further encumbered bytoo many Canadians knowing little or nothingabout the deep historical roots of these conflicts.This lack of historical knowledge has seriousconsequences for First Nations, Inuit, and Métispeople, and for Canada as a whole.[ 7 ]“In government circles, [lack of knowledge] makes forpoor public policy decisions. In the public realm, itreinforces racist attitudes and fuels civic distrust.Toomany Canadians still do not know the history ofAboriginal peoples’ contributions to Canada, orunderstand that by virtue of the historical and modernTreaties negotiated by our government, we are allTreaty people.Reconciliation is not about ‘closing asad chapter of Canada’s past’ but about opening newhealing pathways of reconciliation that are forged intruth and justice.” [ 8 ]Upon approval of these recommendations, thenext stage is the development of a multi-year,multi-staged implementation plan that will requirea resourcing strategy.11

The re-naming of the Langevin Bridge is an example of civic processes that requires a reconciliation lens.The bridge was opened in 1910 and was named after Sir Hector-Louis Langevin, one of the Fathers of theCanadian Confederation. Langevin is also known for his part in assimilating Native students in the IndianResidential school system in Canada. In 1883 he stated, ". the fact is that if you wish to educate thechildren you must separate them from their parents during the time they are being taught. If you leavethem in the family they may know how to read and write, but they will remain savages, whereas byseparating them in the way proposed, theyacquire the habits and tastes.of civilizedpeople." (CBC Calgary, June 16, 2015)For The City of Calgary to consider re-namingthe bridge to a name that signifies buildingcommunities rather than dismantling them isa powerful symbol of mutual respect for thefuture.Calgary Bow River, Langevin Bridge [ 9 ]On May 10, 2016, the Minister of Indigenous Affairs and Northern Development, Carolyn Bennett,announced at the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues at the United Nations in New York City thatCanada is now a full supporter, without qualification, of the declaration. The Truth and ReconciliationCommission’s Call to Action #43 calls upon the federal, provincial and municipal governments to fullyadopt and implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People as theframework for reconciliation. The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People is adocument that describes both individual and collective rights of Indigenous peoples around the world. Itoffers guidance on cooperative relationships with Indigenous peoples to states, the United Nations, andother international organizations based on the principles of equality, partnership, good faith and mutualrespect.Minister Carolyn Bennett states “The declaration recognizes Indigenous Peoples' basic human rights, aswell as rights to self-determination, language, equality and land, among others. Through Section 35 of itsConstitution, Canada has a robust framework for the protection of Indigenous rights. By adopting andimplementing the declaration, we are excited that we are breathing life into Section 35 and recognizing itas a full box of rights for Indigenous Peoples in Canada." (CBC May 10, 2016)12

In June, 2015, Calgary City Council asked its citizen advisory committee, the Calgary Aboriginal UrbanAffairs Committee (CAUAC), to deliver recommendations on which of the 94 Calls to Action identified inthe Indian Residential School Truth and Reconciliation Summary Report were actionable by localgovernment. The following is a list of recommendations which would assist in moving reconciliationforward between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Calgarians.Each section ends with a cross-country summary of TRC activities that are underway in other jurisdictions.The intent is to provide the reader with a range of examples to expand their understanding of reconciliationopportunities.
