Department: Office of the Chief Date prepared: 01/21/16 Subject: James Street Swing Bridge Update Prepared by: Kristy Boucher Lawyers for Fort William First Nation (“FWFN”) were in court on October 23, 2015 as part of the ongoing dispute over the James Street Bridge. In its decision delivered on January 20, 2016 that the Court agreed with FWFN and the City of Thunder Bay that a shorter, simpler procedure should be adopted to determine who is responsible for the repairs to the bridge. FWFN’s members have a pressing interest in using the James Street Bridge again. CN is refusing to repair the bridge. The longer it takes to decide the case, the longer the bridge will remain closed. CN wanted a longer, more complicated hearing, which would only delay any decision. This was not in the best interests of FWFN. This preliminary victory is in the best interests of FWFN’s members. It ensures that the court will not take as long to hear our case as it otherwise might. Members of FWFN can contact the Administration Office should they wish to obtain a copy of the decision. 90 Anemki Drive, Suite 200 Fort William First Nation, ON P7J 1L3 807.623.9543 866.892.8687 (Toll Free) If you would like additional comments from Chief Collins please contact: Kristy Boucher Communications Officer & Executive Assistant-Office of the Chief.

NEWS RELEASE ‘Say Yes to AES’ campaign kicks off today for Anishinabek Nation
UOI OFFICES (Nipissing First Nation) January 18, 2016 – Anishinabek Nation is kick-starting its “Say Yes to the AES” campaign, educating its citizens about the proposed Anishinabek Nation Education Agreement with Canada and new fiscal arrangements for education. Anishinabek Nation Grand Council Chief Patrick Madahbee says it’s important for our people to learn more about the proposed agreement and Anishinabek Education System. “It is important to be informed and show up to vote – or mail in your ballot when the time comes,” says Grand Council Chief Madahbee. “I really hope we don’t lose the opportunity for Anishinaabe education and Anishinabek control of education because of lack of interest. I urge you to get involved. This is for our children.” Information about the proposed agreement with Canada, fiscal arrangements and the Anishinabek Education System can be found at www.sayyestoaes.ca “We are at a time when we must move forward to take charge of the education of our children. Our education system is designed for success on our terms and under our jurisdiction,” says Madahbee. “It has been designed by Anishinabek parents, Elders, and education experts. We’ve had the inspiration, done the perspiration, now we need ratification and implementation. We have 30 of our 39 communities on board to run a ratification vote – and the others have the option to join in at a later date.” The recognition by Canada of the Anishinabek First Nations’ jurisdiction over primary, elementary and secondary education, and the funding to operate the Anishinabek Education System (AES), a stand-alone, parallel, education system, makes up the proposed education self-government agreement with Canada. All Anishinabek First Nation citizens are encouraged to attend the first round of Regional Information Sessions in preparation for the First Nation ratification vote in November 2016: January 20 – Sault Ste. Marie – Delta Waterfront Hotel from 1-4pm February 10 – Little Current – Manitoulin Hotel & Conference Centre 1-4pm February 17 – Toronto – Native Canadian Centre 1-4pm February 25 – Sudbury – Holiday Inn 6-9pm
The Anishinabek Nation established the Union of Ontario Indians as its secretariat in 1949. The UOI is a political advocate for 39 member communities across Ontario, representing approximately 55,000 people. The

St. Anne's- 3rd Sunday of Ordinary Time: Jan. 24, 2016 1st Reading: Nehemiah 8:2-6, 8-10. After the Jews returned from exile in Babylon the nation had to be rebuilt. To Ezra fell the task of re-establishing the Jewish religion. Here he reads the book of the law of Moses to the people. 2nd Reading: 1 Cor. 12:12- 30. The human body is one though made up of many parts. So it is with the Church. Though it is composed of different members, coming from different backgrounds and endowed with different gifts, it forms a unity in Christ. Gospel Luke 1:1-4: 4,:14-21. In the synagogue in his native village of Nazareth Jesus makes the astonishing announcement that in him the great prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled. He is the long awaited Saviour of the poor and the oppressed. GOSPEL CHALLENGE: ANOINTED TO SERVE. Quoting the prophet Isaiah, Jesus outlines His mission as bringing liberty, justice and freedom to a people held in spiritual bondage in so many ways. Pope Francis challenges us to set our moral and spiritual compass each week to give us direction by the corporal and spiritual works of mercy to help us in our mission with clear objectives in our mission of materializing God's love and mercy for the world he created and loves so much. -SUNDAY, JAN 17TH -- Collections ... $ 443.26 PASTOR'S LOG - TUES., JAN. 19 - Homiletics, 7 - 8 pm, Kateri Church - Bible prayer and reflection for next Sunday - THURS., JAN. 28 - Parish Council Meeting - 7 pm - KATERI PARISH PRAYER WEEKEND.
