The Manitoba government has announced that they will transition operations of the Indigenous Court Workers Programs to Indigenous rights holder organizations in some key regions.

Justice Minister Cameron Friesen says the government is pleased to be taking another step toward reconciliation by shifting responsibility for court supports to the Indigenous-led organizations themselves.

“Shifting these resources to rights holder organizations who work directly with communities will ensure greater access to this valuable resource for Indigenous people who come in contact with the criminal justice system.”

Indigenous court workers provide culturally appropriate support and help Indigenous people navigate the court's system and connect to resources.

The minister says the province will support the transition of the program by providing annual grants totalling over $1 million a year for two years to four rights holder organizations including Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak, Manitoba Metis Federation, the Southern Chiefs’ Organization, and the Island Lake Tribal Council.

Many people are still trying to come to terms with last week's shocking discovery of 751 unmarked graves at a cemetery near the former Marieval Indian Residential School, which is 95 km south of Yorkton.

Before the discovery in Cowessess, 215 children's remains were found at the former site of the Kamloops Residential School. For Geraldine Shingoose, the past several weeks have been extremely tough as she is a residential school survivor. 

So Geraldine, Vivan Ketchum, and Chickadee Richard are now making their way to Kamloops to show their support, both Vivian and Chickadee are also residential school survivors. Chickadee attended the Sandy Bay Residential School for about five years while Vivian spent four years at a residential school. 

They will head to the Cowessess First Nation first, before continuing their trip. They will make a public appearance alongside community members and they have brought sacred bundles from their territory, which they will present. 

"We want to show our support for all affected, we want them to know that they're not alone," said Shingoose. 

Items in the sacred bundles include a Treaty 1 territory flag, a Métis sash, child and infant moccasins, a child's star blanket, an eagle feather, a child's orange T-shirt, a medicine bag, and painted rocks.

Shingoose says travelling with Vivian and Chickadee provides her with the strength needed during what she calls a 'tough' time.

"We support each other and that's so important," ended Shingoose. "We believe we're going to be able to bring that strength and comfort to our two stops."
