Once he arrives, he is taken for a bit of a ride by the canny locals as they try to milk him for as much cash as they can. In the days before cell phones; he has to call his boss from the phone box reporting his lack of progress and some astronomical sightings until eventually Happer comes over himself and immediately strikes up a rapport with Fulton Mackay who lives on the beach (and who is steadfastly refusing to sell). It is is simple story very well told with a slightly unpredictable, happy ending and a brilliant score from Mark Knopfler. Filipe Manuel Neto: **Slow, with boring characters and dialogues and a disjointed script, this film does not justify the “hype” around it.** This is one of those indie films that has won over a legion of self-confessed admirers. It’s a film that everyone speaks highly of, as if it were a solid masterpiece. I didn’t know that when I saw it for the first time, so I saw it without a lot of expectations. I’m glad I did it: despite recognizing some merits, I am convinced that the film has been well overrated. The proof is the way it fell into oblivion! If we exclude fans and movie nerds who know everything (and when they don’t, they make it up) who really remembers this movie? The film revolves around a story that is very simple: in the north of Scotland, there is a small bay with a beach and a sleepy village. When a rich oil entrepreneur decides to buy all that to build a huge refinery and a terminal for oil tankers, all those people are expectant, wanting to sell what they have for the best price. Only two people disagree: a marine biologist who want to preserve and study the local, and an old simpleton who owns a good part of that beach. The film had some potential, but it lacks solidity and a good script. Time is spent in sterile dialogue, rambling about comets, constellations and flirting. It is also very unbelievable, as a project like this would never be so consensual, there are always those who oppose it for financial or ecological reasons, or mere nostalgia. If director Bill Forsyth decided to close his eyes to the insipidity and fragility of ...

Read the article in the Edmonton Journal: Aga Khan's contributions little-known, but significant “The Aga Khan, the spiritual leader of the Shia Ismaili Muslim community, and a man who has made significant contributions to Canada and Alberta. My guess is that his contributions are little known by Canadians and Albertans, but they are significant. I had the pleasure of being on the board of the University of Alberta Botanic Garden at a time when he pledged $25 million to create an Islamic garden, right here in Edmonton. The Aga Khan Garden is due to open in the coming weeks…. The Aga Khan is perhaps the leading community builder of our time, taking deliberate and repeated measures to cultivate a sense of community from the smallest villages on the other side of the planet to, literally, the entire world. At the basis for all this work is a deep-rooted commitment to improving people’s quality of life — from safe drinking water to telecommunications, from high quality education and health care to park preservation. He looks at communities holistically, recognizing that how we find contentment as individuals and societies is the sum of many, many parts. While some would want us to believe the world is a simple place with quick-fix, simplistic solutions, I don’t think that is the case. The Aga Khan takes complex, difficult work and tackles it with undeterred focus and passion. He draws on many perspectives and finds synergies by putting many organizations together to form a solution….. The Aga Khan would push us even further. Real human progress — the kind where we all benefit and that brings deep happiness — requires us to purposefully seek one another out, to actively listen to each other’s ideas and to wholeheartedly collaborate. We experience chasms of misunderstanding, and fostering a pluralistic society may be the antidote.” Dave Mowat is the President & CEO of ATB (Alberta Treasury Branch) Financial. http://edmontonjournal.com/opinion/columnists/opinion-aga-khans-contributions-little-known-but-significant #Ismaili #Ismailism #AgaKhan #AhlAlBayt #ProudIsmaili #HazarImam #OneJamat #DiamondJubilee #CanadaCelebratesDJ #ProudToBeACanadianIsmaili #JACanada

Removing the Mishizaagig from their Ancestral Lands

On Friday evening, October 9, 2018, I attended the first session of the 20th Annual Indigenous Knowledge Symposium at Queen's University, Kingston.  The Topic for the Symposium was "Understanding Treaties and Treaty Making", organized by the Office of Indigenous Initiatives.

While I was aware that there had been Indigenous People populating the north shore of Lake Ontario, I had never really addressed to my satisfaction who they were and what became of them.  My Family History started with the arrival in Canada of my Irish predecessors in the 1850s, and that was the point where my focus stayed.

I had read some older novels and books which addressed the earlier settlement period in this area, so I was not unaware of the wildness of the lands and number of native people that occupied the territory.  It was interesting to me that the first settlers were huddled along the shore and there was only limited penetration northwards.  I could look at an old map illustrating a story and see immediately vast areas of unmarked terriroty where it would be unsurprising to see a legend reading "Here Be Indians."

My interest was heightened when I saw that the topic for the first evening of the Symposium would be "The Mishizaagig of Kingston and Alderville: Stories of Place and Displacement".  This could certainly help me understand who the indigenous peoples were who inhabited this area, how the land was taken from them and what ultimately happened to them.

It would be remiss to not note that the evening started with a warm welcome and traditional spiritual invocation from a Knowledge Keeper who took out an offering of tobacco and food outside for the ancestors who had gathered to observe and to see to their happiness and continued support.  Following that there was a dinner of Moose meatloaf with traditional sides and dessert provided to everyone for hospitality and ensure their attention with the presentation.

The keynote speakers for this topic were Laura J. Murray, a Professor of English and Cultural Studies at Queen's University, and Dave Mowat, a resident and former elected Band Councillor of the Mishizaagig of Alderville First Nation.  Their presentation is a tag team effort, which enabled them to cover a wide range of information with each of them speaking to their areas of expertise and interest with a unique point of view.

To open the presentation each of them spoke to an important ancestor first, highlighting a great-grandfather.  Laura had a great-grandfather who homesteaded north of Toronto and Dave had two ancestral great-grandfathers he noted, one who was a Olympic runner.

Unfortunately we do not have early indigenous records and maps which could provide additional history and context to who the Mishizaagig were and their activities on the land.  They are popularly referred to as the Mississauga today.  In historical research it is difficult to locate records and texts easily as the traditional Mishizaagig name is spelled in a great variety of ways.

Some of the earliest maps and settlement stories were referenced dated in early 1700s.  First it is obvious that there were no boundaries and roads.  Secondly the area was a hub of indigenous activity, with water an important facilitator and provider.  The area around Cataraqui was particularly active with indigenous movement for meetings and gatherings and trade.  Lastly, that the native people were viewed as a hindrance to development and settlement, and that there was active dislike of native people and irritation that they acted like it was their land, which it was.

It was a proclamation of King George III that the land could not be seized from the native people but that there would have to be negotiation and accommodation.  That this would lead to complicated results and misunderstandings can be expected when you have two divergent peoples, cultures and interests.  Ultimately this proclamation would be one of the causes of the American Revolution, settlers and immigrants wanting freedom to move and take their piece of the new land.  That the British lost to the Americans also put additional pressure on the settlement north of Lake Ontario.

The Governor of the territory immediately called for the Royal Surveyor to commence work, so there plans were being made well before negotiation took place.

Captain William Radford Crawford was instructed to negotiate acquisition of the lands from the Mishizaagig.  The result, completed in 1783 and known as the Crawford Purchase, was not so much as a Treaty as a letter which indicated what lands had been ceded by the indigenous community.  Acquired was a block of land along the north shore of Lake Ontario stretching from the Trent River and modern Trenton to approximately Mallorytown, and going inland a day's journey (roughly 7 or 8 miles).  Crawford also claimed that all the islands were ceded as well, though this was almost immediately disputed by the Mishizaagig.

What this agreement meant is obviously extremely different depending upon whether you were looking at it from the point of view of a European settler or a member of the local Mishizaagig.  The Europeans now believed they owned the land outright, a concept not understood by the indigenous people, and that they could occupy and develop the land.  The Mishizaagig were looking forward to the white settlers coming and living along side them and the new opportunities they would have for trade.

As a result of this agreement the Mishizaagig were not allowed to harvest or hunt the land.  Suddenly they would be fined for attempting to carry out any such actions, fines which they could not afford to pay.

There also was little or no provision of where they would go or what land they could occupy.  They certainly were not candidates for a land grant in any of the newly surveyed areas, in fact they were deliberately excluded.

The parcels of land were to be given to people with the following qualification.  Firstly, they had to be Christian.  Secondly, they have to be hard working.  Thirdly, they had to be law abiding.  Lastly, the had to come from somewhere else.  A condition which meant that only immigrants would get land.

The result of this is that an increasingly poor and decimated native group in this area were permitted to only stay in fringe areas of settlement and one small island.  Alarming numerical counts of indigenous people over the next decades show steep decline in population with no explanation or analysis of what was happening to the community.

The next step is the story would be across the remaining Mishizaagig nation, that was declining as other treaties were negotiated, and that would be the conversion to Methodism.  This began in the early 1800s and grew and was completed in the first decades of that century.  The narrative that went with conversion was that the indigenous person came from nothing and became something by adopting Christianity and assimilating into the white community.  The writings and actions of the most prominent converts among the Mishizaagig indicate that they remained strong advocates for their people even after conversion.

The presentation concluded with a brief look at other treaties that affected the Mishizaagig lands, their interpretations and expansions, land that was not subject to treaty, and current negotiations and agreements pertaining to the old treaties.

Saturday the Symposium is to continue with three panels and different aspects of treaty negotiation, which I am unable to attend.

ATB Financial’s new CEO to continue technological push

TORONTO — ATB Financial’s new chief executive has a tough act to follow.

Tuesday marks Curtis Stange first day of work at the helm after ATB Financial president and CEO Dave Mowat retired at the end of June.

Mowat helped drive technological innovation at the Alberta-based bank — Canada’s only bank that is also a Crown corporation — to keep up with, and sometimes outpace, Canada’s biggest Bay Street financial institutions.

Technology continues to reshape the financial services landscape, as Canadian consumers increasingly conduct their banking online or via smartphone rather than in physical branches.

Canada’s Big Five banks have ramped up spending on innovation, while also moving to streamline their banks to adjust to new face of banking in the digital realm.

With $51.9 billion in total assets, 5,000 employees and 750,000 customers across Alberta, ATB Financial is a fraction of the size of the Big Five banks — but its comparatively small footprint may be an advantage when it comes to deploying technological change.

ATB, for example, rolled out its Facebook Messenger chatbot that can facilitate payments last February, months ahead of many of its much larger competitors.

It was just one of the technological changes Mowat oversaw during his 11-years at the helm.

The bank — which is less than one-twentieth the size of the Royal Bank of Canada — has also rolled out humanoid robots at some branches, and the use of retina-scanning to offer banking access to the homeless without the need for a traditional card as identification.

Banks are going to see more change in the next decade than current bankers have in their entire careers, Mowat predicted.

“We might be exactly the right size… Larger banks will have trouble being nimble,” he said in an interview.

Last September, ATB began using biometric identification technology as part of a partnership with non-profit Boyle Street Community Services, which supports the homeless and other vulnerable people in Edmonton. At the resulting ATB agency called Four Directions Financial, using a retina scan or a fingerprint as identification allows people without official ID to bank.

Stange, who has been with ATB since 2009 and was most recently its chief customer officer, acknowledges he has some big shoes to fill, but says the bank still has some innovative projects in the pipeline — including the application of the distributed ledger technology behind Bitcoin to the province’s oil and gas industry.

“We’ve got a lot of things in play… We’re leveraging the blockchain technology and partnering with a couple of energy companies to help create a blockchain proof of concept, that will be much more efficient, much more transparent and reduce the risk for the companies involved in settling on oil settlement day every month,” Stange said.

ATB is developing a concept that will settle oil and gas industry transactions almost instantly on a secure and private blockchain system, instead of the current process used in the industry that takes weeks to complete.

For Stange, assuming the top job at ATB is “humbling.” He plans to take the time to learn by listening to customers and employee feedback.

But another launch is already imminent: the Alberta-based bank is gearing up to launch an online-only bank this fall.

“We looked at the landscape, and found with technology advancing, with changing consumer sentiment advancing, we would invest some money in technology and people, resources to develop a unique offer,” said Stange.

ATB itself has a unique structure, being a Crown corporation owned by the province of Alberta. Back in 1938, the province’s Social Credit government created a system of temporary financial institutions called Treasury Branches to give Albertans an alternative source of credit.

The bank grew along with the province’s economy and by the 1990s, the government began repositioning Alberta Treasury Branches as a competitive financial services provider. It became a provincial Crown corporation in October 1997, and rebranded as ATB Financial in 2002 as it broadened its investment offerings.

ATB has expanded its offerings to daily banking and wealth management, among other things, as well as a footprint of some 300 branches.

The crown-owned bank remains independent of the Alberta government, with governance rules such as a ban on government officials sitting on its board of directors to reinforce its independence, and it does not get any additional funding, he said.

“There’s lots of discussion, should government own a bank?” said Mowat. “And I think the uniqueness of Alberta… It’s not as established as the rest of Canada. It has very unique needs that benefit from that local knowledge.”

On that note, ATB has no intention of expanding its footprint beyond the province’s borders, said Stange.

“We still have work to do in Alberta,” he said.

“While we would be building technologies that would be ubiquitous and don’t recognize geographical borders, our focus is very much on Albertans and Alberta businesses.”

Varcoe: Dave Mowat set to retire as CEO and public face of ATB

Dave Mowat has been the public face of ATB Financial for almost 11 years, but he’s about to give up that prime-time provincial role.

On Monday, the government-owned financial organization announced Mowat will retire as chief executive on June 30, with a successor to be named later this spring.

The 62-year-old banker has guided the government-owned financial organization through turbulent times,…

Towering at 6′ 3″ and boasting a thickset neck and torso, Dave Bautista is already an unlikely Hollywood star. The former professional wrestler and mixed martial arts fighter shot to stardom in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy as Drax, the gruff musclehead alien with a heart, and continues to shine in intriguing roles like that of the Replicant Sapper Morton in Blade Runner 2049.

But Bautista nearly didn’t get his memorable role in Denis Villeneuve‘s ambitious science fiction sequel. And it wasn’t because of a poor audition or his intimidating height. It was because — at 48 years old — everyone thought he was just too young.

It sounds a bit strange to nearly discount a middle aged actor because he was too young for the part. However, Villeneuve envisioned Sapper Morton as a weary, older man — something that he thought the physically fit, energetic Bautista didn’t embody, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

“Dave was such a charismatic and strong presence, but there was only one problem — he was too young to play that part,” Villeneuve told THR. But Bautista eventually won the role over thanks to the efforts of make-up artist Donald Mowat, who gave the actor a grizzled, graying look.

Bautista was as baffled as you are that he almost lost out on the role because of his “young” age. He was already an anomaly for breaking out in Hollywood at the ripe age of 45 in Guardians of the Galaxy, in an industry where youth is a huge boon for many action stars:

“Throughout my experience in Hollywood, I was either too big or too old. I had never been told I was too young, and I just didn’t know what to say. And then they got in touch with me and asked if I would go through some makeup tests to try and age me. I said, ‘Of course.'”

But unlike the former wrestlers that broke into Hollywood before him, Bautista is not going the action star route. Bautista is not conventionally handsome like Dwayne Johnson or John Cena, and indeed his unique physique would make him an unlikely Hollywood actor — his shoulders too broad, his neck too thick, his head oddly shaped.

But Bautista has proven to be incredibly talented, radiating empathy and vulnerability in each of his roles. Instead of striking out with lead roles, Bautista has wisely chosen the character actor route, playing the scene-stealing supporting character in cerebral sci-fi flicks like Blade Runner 2049 or satirical space operas like Guardians of the Galaxy. He’s become a genuinely interesting actor thanks to these unconventional career choices, and I look forward to what he does next. Ageism is still a powerful force in Hollywood, but Bautista has a promising future.
