Peters, Evelyn; Rosenberg, Mark; Halseth, Greg
Questions about the nature of Métis identity have received considerable scrutiny in recent years (Foster, 1985; Hatt, 1971; Peterson and Brown, 1985). Events at Red River and Batoche have come to public attention in new ways, and this Prairie segment of Metis history has become increasingly well known. At the same time, it is evident that there are considerable populations in all parts of Canada which consider-themselves Metis, many of which do not have Red River ancestry (Table 1.0).
This report explores the issue of Métis identity by analyzing the opinions and attitudes of an Ontario population which identifies itself as Métis, but appears to have few historic links with the Métis at Red River. The data derive from a 1985 questionnaire survey by the Ontario Métis and Non-Status Indian Association (OMNSIA). The survey attempted to identify the concerns, attitudes and opinions of OMNSIA members on issues of relevance to Metis and Non-Status Indians in Ontario (see Appendix A). While there are a number of problems with the survey, it nevertheless represents a unique and valuable resource for research ori Metis identity.

Waldram, James B.; Layman, Mellisa, M.
This report presents an overview of the findings of the "Westside Clinic-Friendship Inn" exploratory study into the health care utilization patterns of urban Native and non-Native people in the west core area of Saskatoon. The focus of the research was upon Native utilization patterns and a general hypothesis was formulated, guided by the existing literature, that suggested that Natives tend to "underutilize" or "inappropriately" utilize urban health care facilities and services in relation to non-Natives. Pragmatic in design, the intent of the research was to investigate this hypothesis as well as to provide a data base and recommendations that would contribute to an improvement in health care delivery in the west core area of downtown Saskatoon.
