Federal funding promises to preserve Indigenous languages


 
MEMBERTOU FIRST NATION --
It was an investment you could say was as much about making amends, as unveiling amounts.
Indigenous Affairs Minister Marc Miller visited Cape Breton's Membertou First Nation on Monday, where he announced more than $513,000 towards preservation and strengthening of Indigenous languages -- languages that were nearly lost as the result of Canada's residential school system.
"There are people here today, as you've seen, who have been fighting against governments to reclaim their language, their culture, their identity", Miller told reporters following the announcement.  "And what Canada needs is to support them financially, and then to get out of the way."

 (Dr. Xiaoyi Bao) 
Dr. Xiaoyi Bao transformed the field of structural monitoring with her invention of Distributed Acoustic Sensor (DAS), an ultra-sensitive and precise optical fiber-based technology installed in civil structures, and capable of detecting dynamic stress and high and low frequency vibrations indicative of crack formation. Her technology, which has more applications, smaller size, better predictive capacity and cost point, showcases Canada as an innovative force for change on the world stage. Not only is Dr. Bao's technology saving governments millions in maintenance, but most importantly, it is helping to protect the environment from oil spills and saving lives by ensuring the integrity of bridges, pipelines, railways and airplanes worldwide.

New language app makes Mi'kmaw language more accessible for children and parents


SYDNEY-A recently released smartphone app is the newest resource for learning the Mi’kmaw language.
Ksite’taqn, which means “precious child” in Mi’kmaw, was developed by Mi’kmaw Kina’matnewey, the organization that oversees education in First Nations communities in Nova Scotia and focuses on words and phrases related to children and childcare.
The idea for the app came to Faye Googoo while she was on maternity leave from her job as the client support co-ordinator for the Atlantic Canada’s First Nation Help Desk, a department of MK that provides technology-related resources and supports to schools.
She was at home with her new daughter, Fiarah, and was trying to speak to her in Mi’kmaw.
