Using data from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), this study examined skill-job mismatches among Indigenous workers in Canada. Skill mismatches (over-skilled or under-skilled conditions) were based on direct measures of skill competencies in numeracy and literacy provided by PIAAC data. On average, Indigenous workers were more likely to be under-skilled, and less likely to be over-skilled, than their non-Indigenous counterparts. These findings may be explained by the fact that the level of education and the skill scores of Indigenous workers were significantly lower than those of non-Indigenous workers. When education was controlled, however, there were no differences in being under- or over-skilled in literacy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous workers. That is, education level played an important role in determining skilllevels as well as job mismatches. Certain job-related conditions were associated with the likelihood of job mismatch among Indigenous workers. Compared to full-time workers, part-time Indigenous workers were more likely to be over-skilled; compared with employees, self-employed Indigenous workers were less likely to be under-skilled; and a higher level of skill-job mismatches were found among Indigenous workers who majored in the field of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in their post-secondary education than their non-STEM counterparts. Faisant usage de donnees du Programme pour 1'6valuation internationale des competences des adultes (PEICA), cette Otude a examine les discordances entre qualifications et emplois parmi les travailleurs autochtones au Canada. Ces discordances (travailleurs surqualifies ou sous-qualifias) s'appuyaient sur l'evaluation directe de compttences (mathematiques, lecture et acriture) issues des donnees du PEICA. En moyenne, les travailleurs autochtones etaient plus susceptibles d'atre sous-qualifies, et moins d'atre surqualifies, que leurs collagues alloclitones. Ce fait s'expliquerait par le fait que le niveau d'instruction comme le degrade compOtence des premiers Otaient nettement plus faibles que ceux des seconds. Une fois qu'on prend en compte le niveau d'instruction, cependant, autochtones et allochtones ne differaient pas les uns des autres en ce qui concerne la surqualification ou la sous-qualification en lecture et en Ocriture. Bret le niveau d'instruction joue un role important dans la determination du niveau de qualification (sur- ou sous-) pour le travail. On a associa certaines conditions liees au travail avec un manque plus probable de correspondance entre qualifications et travail parmi les travailleurs autochtones. Comparas aux travailleurs A temps plein, les travailleurs autochtones A temps partiel etaient plus susceptibles d'atre surqualifies; comparas aux employes, les travailleurs autochtones autonomes ataient moins susceptibles d'6tre sous-qualifies; et on a trouve un niveau plus leve de manque de correspondance entre qualifications et travail parmi les ouvriers autochtones datenteurs a un clipldme en science, en technologie et en mathamatiques que parmi les ouvriers autochtones detenteurs d'un dip16me dans un autre domaine.

Using an indigenographic methodology to decode the signs and symbols in Jan Verelst's paintings of the Four Indian Kings (1710) this paper describes a decolonizing methodology for Iroquois Indigenous knowledge. The intellectual tradition that began in the 1800s called the Iroquoianist School, interprets Iroquois culture using a distinct diction and imagery that influences the view of Indigenous culture. The Iroquoianist School interprets Iroquoian culture through Western cultural presuppositions that influences them to depict Iroquois culture within the framework of the Western master narrative of evolution. Believing the ancien regime of Iroquois culture to be a theocracy of ceremonial ritualists, Iroquoianists focus on necromancy and death rituals. In contrast to the sacral view, an examination of the Four Indian Kings demonstrates a broader secular governance model that depicts a conception of justice and social order. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The success of economic and political development in Canada's provincial Norths will be determined in large part by how successfully decision-making processes accommodate Northern Aboriginal political culture. This paper examines Northern Aboriginal political culture through the case of Saskatchewan's Northern Administrative District. We argue that kinship organizational networks and family systems have shaped Northern Saskatchewan Aboriginal political culture. We also argue that current Northern Aboriginal political culture is a blended political culture, with two dominant generational subcultures co-existing and influencing political behaviour and attitudes. We explain how these subcultures arose, and discuss the implications of the current blended political culture for the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper explores the possibilities of an alternative development of Canadian Aboriginal society by analyzing the influence of their traditional values on business operations. In order to identify if and how Aboriginal traditions can be included in their economy, this study conducted interviews with First Nations individual entrepreneurs in Quebec and Ontario. It identifies that traditional Aboriginal values facilitate the formation of social behaviors in business operations. Aboriginal peoples are involved in the mainstream market economy in a distinct and social way. Alternative Aboriginal development, and perhaps even the development of the larger society, is possible through emphasizing various social relations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Forms of Indigenous contentious action, including blockades, marches, demonstrations, building occupations and fish- and log-ins are commonplace in Canada, but understudied. The likelihood of more of these events is high given the glacial pace at which grievances are being acknowledged. This paper asks what accounts for the variation in mobilization of Indigenous groups in unconventional forms of protest - non-routine and non-institutional - often "illegal" contentious action events in advanced, industrial, settler democracies? The applicability of three social movement theories, deprivation, Resource Management Theory (RMT) and New Social Movement (NSM) theory, are examined in providing explanatory leverage on Indigenous mobilization in contentious action in Canada. An examination of two cases will outline the explanatory usefulness of these theories: the blockades at Kanehsatake in 1990 (commonly referred to as the Oka Crisis) and the conflict at Burnt Church from 1999 to 2002. It determines that deprivation, NSM, and sometimes RMT are able to provide valuable insights into specific cases and also illustrate the fact that Indigenous contentious action across Canada is not the same, they, are not always driven by the same processes, goals, or identities. These theories can be useful analytical tools, but have little to offer in terms of predictive power and must be used carefully as explanatory tools. As opposed to being separate explanatory fields, they are most helpful used cooperatively rather than competitively. All of these theories must be able to take into consideration the impacts of colonialism on resources, on deprivation and on identity, in order to retain explanatory value in the case of Indigenous peoples. Furthermore, the relationship that land has to identity formation for Indigenous peoples must be accounted for, and can be done so within NSM theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
