    7. Bill Prankard

      In an article for Charisma Magazine they tell an anecdote of Prankards first time in the Canadian Arctic. He talks about meeting a man who’s wife had recently died and mentions how the man was grateful for the Prankard brining the knowledge of the Gospel to their village and asks why it hadn’t happened sooner. He says this because his wife was buried under a cross in the cemetery, never having known of Jesus.

      This statement is confusing because it is obvious that the woman would have known of Jesus if she were buried under a cross in a Christian cemetery. Perhaps, Prankard is referring specifically to the introduction of the new born-again faith.

    3. There he claimed to have brought Christianity to the Inuit people for the first time

      In an article for Charisma Magazine they tell an anecdote of Prankards first time in the Canadian Arctic. He talks about meeting a man who’s wife had recently died and mentions how the man was grateful for the Prankard brining the knowledge of the Gospel to their village and asks why it hadn’t happened sooner. He says this because his wife was buried under a cross in the cemetery, never having known of Jesus.

      This statement is confusing because it is obvious that the woman would have known of Jesus if she were buried under a cross in a Christian cemetery. Perhaps, Prankard is referring specifically to the introduction of the new born-again faith.

    8. Although many people are joining the movement there are still those who look at this new version of Christianity with a cautious eye[3].

      Direct quotes from older Inuit describe the similarity of the way, on the outside, Pentecostal traditions are similar to Inuit Shamans, but mention their hesitance. With a long history of being the subject of colonialism, some Inuit treat this movement with a little skepticism.

      This book provides a complement to the book on Global Pentecostalism (Miller & Tetsuano, 2007). The book gives a general look at the trends and movements in pentecostalism across Canada. Deeper understanding of all the forces involved can be achieved by looking generally at the entire nation. The book also provides a chapter looking at pentecostal trends within the native community that provides a different perspective on its growth than other articles in this bibliography.

      This article from 1902 is from the voice of an explorer who had spent many winters in arctic greenland. He talks about not having the traditional turkey dinner, and inviting the Inuit over for the meal. I was most interested in the way he talked about the Inuit. “ They are not quick to learn, but are quite skillful with tools.” “It is not likely that the members of the queer little trip who dined with us will ever know why we celebrated December 25th”. He says this is due to the fact that it is too far north for any missionaries to travel.

      This book provides a review of the global pentecostal movement. It emphasizes the diversity within the pentecostal traditions developed through its community centered autonomous nature. This book is valuable to my research in defining pentecostalism. The authors distinguish pentecostalism in the developing world from Pentecostalism in Countries like the US. Although the authors exclude US and Canada from their research, they talk specifically to the phenomena of indigenous-based pentecostal churches which may directly relate to similar churches in the Canadian Arctic.

      This is a New York Times article from 1956 about the life of an early missionary in the canadian arctic. This talks about the influence Fleming had on the communities over his 40 years of service. The article sheds light on the way the dominant culture viewed the Inuit around the middle of the century. Additionally, it talks about the relationships held between missionaries of different faiths as well as Flemming’s relationship with commercial industry.

And second, an analysis of the intersection of inuit and christian identities. Additionally, Peck provides information on the impact of whalers prior to his arrival. One interesting point the authors bring is how Peck was more objective than the anthropologist to whom he sent his original journals.

      This book is a collection of translations and oral histories from the shaman traditions of arctic Alaska. This provides a relatively direct view into the traditions and culture of inuit in Alaska. These stories are limited in use because the focus of the research lies in northeastern Canada. Regardless, the stories and analysis are a window into a world that has very little documentation.

Here, Flemming talks about the arctic episcopal diocese as the largest and most under funded. Additionally in addressing this during wartime, he is pleading that there are still important roles for its existence in educating and serving the local community. The article provides a prospective of what information is communicated from the arctic to the major newspapers of North America.

    1. We have the opportunity to make a new departure, to open a new chapter in the history of the indigenous peoples of the Americas.

      This is the final statement Berger chose for the closing of the document. When he said a “new chapter” he was referring to the potential of a paradigm shift in the way the Canadian government interacted with indigenous people. Through this, he is charging the readers with a rhetorical, ‘which side of history do you want to be on?’ In reflection of the immense impact this document held for the future, Goudge had an abundance of comments on the positive impact that resulted from The Inquiry. One of the impacts was how after the submission of this document the government was pressured to settle land claims with the indigenous communities, but Goudge argues the real impact is in the empowerment that was felt throughout the various communities. Goudge mentions how The Inquiry was able to show the different communities that not only did someone cared about what they had to say, but far reaching implications could result from it. Soon after the success of The Inquiry young leadership emerged to take a more vocal in light of their newfound collective strength. Additionally, beyond the Mackenzie Delta, this “new chapter” included a shift in how environmental impact inquiries were conducted across North America and the world. Berger set a new standard for what a true comprehensive inquiry should look like, which now includes the inhabitants most affected. Although, many impacts were made by decisions made beyond Berger himself, this final statement was prophetic to the ripples that were set in motion from the very creation of the document itself.

    2. They will still be there. No one is going to take them away

      In this statement, Berger, is reassuring the reader by attempting to instill an air of patience. Although it may have been possible to argue this statement when it was written, today we can definitively say that the resources are still there. It’s difficult to know if Berger really thought that after 40 years the energy companies are still figuring out the details of this project. Although many of the land claims that were so pivotal in arguing the moratorium have been settled decades ago, there are still economic social and logistical barriers yet to be worked out. Nevertheless, energy companies continue to knock on the door of the Canadian Arctic. For example, In 2005 a government appointed Joint Review Panel completed and approved a five year survey of a recently proposed pipeline through the Mackenzie Valley. This approval was conditional upon the implementation of 176 recommendations including enviro-social aspects. This review had mimicked similar style to that of the original Berger Inquiry and sought the diverse voices and opinions of the Mackenzie Valley. Although support wasn’t unanimous there was clear shift in opinion of the pipeline since the original inquiry. However, as recently as 2016 Imperial Oil Resources Ventures Ltd. was approved for an extension to the construction of their proposed pipeline through the Mackenzie Valley citing the market conditions of natural gas as the primary inhibiting factor. This shows that to this day, not for lack of trying, the words of Thomas Berger still ring true “The resources will still be there”.

    3. Petro Canada

      The Canadian government established Petro-Canada as a state owned Crown Corporation to manage oil resources in the country. This decision was aided by a variety of international pressures, mainly the OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) embargo in which the oil rich Middle Eastern countries prohibited the sale of oil to the U.S., Canada, U.K., Netherlands, and Japan due to U.S. support of Israel during the 1973 Yom Kippur war. This oil embargo sparked a world shortage which spiked prices and caused Canada to look at moving towards more domestic sources of oil independence. With a new government, under the leadership of Trudeau, they adopted a more nationalist focus to their energy independence emphasizing the importance of Canadian industry. The Canadian government looked to reduce the influence of U.S. multinational oil companies in their own abundant oil fields in Alberta. Additionally, as a Crown Corporation, Petro-Canada was tasked to perform many tasks that wouldn’t be expected of privately owned companies. For example, the Canadian Government expected that Petro-Canada would explore the frontier for various, harder to access, resources like tar sands, heavy oil, or areas that would be difficult to develop transport chains. This charge from the state made it so Petro-Canada was more invested than private companies in exploring difficult to reach areas like the Mackenzie Delta in the mid 1970’s. The duties of the Crown Corporation were beyond simply providing energy for the nation, but also ensuring a sustainable future of energy independence.

    4. This is what their claims are about, and this is why they say their claims must be settled before a pipeline is built.

      In this statement, Berger is expressing the perspective of the native culture that has not been treated as owners of their ancestral land. Even though land claims are rarely perfect, Berger argues their importance in improving social inequalities. As a whole, the native populations aren’t opposed to the creation of a pipeline, however they are demanding respect in these decisions that will vastly impact their land (132). Until this point the native populations have been viewed from a largely colonialist viewpoint. Starting in the mid 19th century with the Hudson’s Bay Company wanting to “tap the value of the arctic and drain it via the Mackenzie river” (18). After the fur traders, whaling boats harvested the abundance of the Mackenzie delta from the north (31). Continuing on, the imperial mindset brought forth Reindeer as a “solution” and apology to the native people (78). After this rich history of white subjugation, it is obvious why the paramount issue at the time of this document was not the creation of the oil pipeline, but instead government agreements to settle land claims and ownership. In stating “This is what their claims are about”, Berger is arguing for the crucial impact in continuing to develop these large projects on other people's land without their consent. Due to the extensive environmental considerations as well as the mass amount of infrastructure needed for this project, the Canadian government would be entering a new stage of colonialism if they were to follow through with this project without consultation of the local populations.
