“It was decided this research project would be called Kamamuetimak Tshentusentimak nte Steniunu Utat, Nitshish, Kie nte Nikan/ Gathering Voices: Discovering our Past, Present and Future. We wanted to hold this Gathering Voices: to look at our history before and since settlement, the history of the violation of our rights to help us understand the root causes of the problems we face today; in Utshimassits, to build on the stories and voices gathered in the People's Inquiry carried out last year, as well as to add to the recommendations and strategies we made to regain control of our lives; to better understand the problems and the split between life in the community and in the country, how the culture is being lost, and how the tensions/problems of the community are making their way into nutshimit; to look at the problems and benefits of kakuspinanut (the outpost program) and nutshimit (the country), and what we can do to solve the problems; to look at what we need to do to solve the problems we face in the community; to encourage people to be honest with each other about what has happened and is happening to us; to not be embarrassed and to be part of the healing process; to preserve, promote and revive our traditional culture, values and spirituality; to help the government, institutions and people from outside our communities better understand us and the problems we face”--Intro., p. 2.
