Sherri Walsh, Winnipeg Harvest board president, told a gathering of community leaders in June that implementing the right to food changes everything. "When we look at it as a basic human right, we change the focus from the lack of food being something that's 'too bad' to something that's wrong, something that in our society, we cannot and will not allow. Fifty years ago, Canadians had no right to health care. Those who could afford it, got health care. Those who could not afford it, didn't. Medicare affirmed that all Canadians have the right to health care, just because they're Canadians. Each of us is responsible for the health of all of us. It is an unshakable commitment of Canadians, one to the other. Before medicare, there were charities that helped some Canadians deal with high me...
There are three provinces that have health premiums, British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario," [Chris McCormick] said. "In British Columbia and Alberta, the residents of the province are invoiced the amount that they would be required to pay towards the health premium. Status Indians in those provinces living on or off reserve call in their status card information and the invoices are sent to Health Canada and are paid. "The argument that Health Canada is making is that in Ontario the premiums are processed through the Ministry of Finance and are labeled as a tax rather than a health premium. The process for paying the premiums is by direct deduction from pay cheques for all residents including status Indians working off-reserve," he said. "AIAI's argument is that our health coverage is...

Many provinces have passed updated public health acts in recent years to give them the right to do whatever a medical health officer believes is necessary to curb the spread of a communicable disease. Scott Lamont, Brandon University's vice-president of administration and finance, said the university's critical incident response team is ready for a possible flu outbreak.Consisting of members from senior administration, human resources, communications, student services and physical plant officials, the team has a plan for anything from extreme weather to bomb threats.
It's really sad when a First Nations treaty right to health becomes a charity issue," said Norway House Cree Nation Chief Marcel Balfour. "This sets a interesting precedent. Are we going to start a corporate fundraising plan for housing in my community? "We need a political commitment to say the First Nations on reserves -- let's even start with the ones in Northern Manitoba that have clearly been the hardest hit -- are a priority," Balfour said. "I need planning and equipment and bodies and doctors and a vaccine program in my community. One medical kit isn't going to do it."
This aspect of health care for First Nations patients is sadly lacking when it comes to doctors and hospital staff, according to the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nation's (FSIN) Vice Chief Guy Lonechild. The Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations represents seventy-four First Nations in Saskatchewan and their purpose is to ensure that the spirit and intent of Treaty, as well Treaty promises are respected We're finding that doctors and staff need to better understand First Nation culture," said Lonechild, after learning of the death of a 17-year-old First Nations girl from [Regina] who died of an apparent heart attack in her home during the early morning hours of June 27, some 36 hours after being sent home from the emergency department at the Regina General Hospital "Health car...
..."Health care is a Treaty right that has to be honoured," adds Lonechild. "FSIN he...
