SASKATCHEWAN HISTORY The First Peoples Some believe that the first people to live in Saskatchewan arrived about 30,000 to 40,000 years ago across the Bering land bridge that once connected Asia to Alaska. Saskatchewan's First Peoples had plenty of food. They hunted the bison, deer and antelope in southern Saskatchewan, moose, elk, caribou and deer in the forested areas of northern Saskatchewan. They also hunted geese and ducks and fished. Beaver, rabbits and ground squirrels were trapped. They gathered plants that grew wild (wild rice, turnips, onions) and berries (chokecherries, saskatoons, blueberries, raspberries). The people who lived in the central and southern regions hunted and followed the herds of animals. They hunted with spears and later with bows and arrows. Bison (buffalo) became one of the main sources of food for the Indian nations who lived on the Great Plains. The bison also provided them with clothing, shelter and tools. To catch the bison, the hunters would attack the animals at water holes, trap them in gullies or surround them. Bison were also stamped over cliffs. INDIAN NATIONS AND LANGUAGES The main First Nations tribes living in Saskatchewan were the Blackfoot, Chipewyan, Sioux, Assiniboine, Gros Ventre, Sarcee, Cree, Saulteaux, Shoshoni, and Nez Perce. The Indian nations were grouped into language families

Monday, April 07, 2003 Sonnenfeld Colony: A Piece of Saskatchewan History By Mottie Feldman of Ottawa dq126 at freenet.carleton.ca January 2002 Introduction Sonnenfeld was one of a number of Jewish colonies that were established in the pioneering days of Western Canada. This report provides information on some of the history of Sonnenfeld, and its geographical location. The information is based on two references, and my own experience. One reference is a paper presented by Anna Feldman to the Canadian Jewish Historical Society. Anna is married to my oldest brother, Keiva. The second reference is a history book compiled from personal accounts obtained from most of the families who resided for some time at least in the Rural Municipality covered by the History Club that organized and assembled the extensive information. Sonnenfeld families were a component of that Municipality. In my own case, I was born on my parents’ homestead in 1937, and lived there until I left to attend University in Saskatoon in 1955. I remain connected through the land that we still own there. Sonnenfeld birth and development Anna Feldman described three phases in the growth of Sonnenfeld Colony: The early years 1905 to 1911 Period of Consolidation 1912 to 1925 The JCA years 1926 to 1939 The early years began with a few young Jewish men, armed with some agricultural college schooling, and not much else, establishing homesteads close to each other. Although other Jewish colonies already existed in the West, a few graduates of Slobodka Lesna School were the first to work their way across the country, after immigrating from Europe, to become pioneers on the virgin prairies of Saskatchewan. Three such graduates who were among the first to file for homesteads and stay with farming, formed the core of the new Colony. Feldman

Early History European Settlement Later Settlement The 1920s The 1930s ... Chronology Some historians and archaeologists believe that human history in Saskatchewan began 30,000 or 40,000 years ago. By hunting and following herds of animals, wandering tirbes crossed the Bering land bridge that once connected Asia to Alaska. The people spread southward through an ice-free corridor just east of the Rocky Mountains, between the Cordilleran and Continental glaciers. Research indicates that there have been several migrations of people, the last one 5,000 or 6,000 years ago during which, archaeologists suggest, the Inuit and Athabaskan Indians came to North America. The Indian peoples believe that they have always lived here. Regardless of how people came to live in North America, people farmed here prior to the time of European settlement. Bison were critical to the life of the early inhabitants of the Great Plains. Bisons provided people with food, skins for clothing and shelter, containers, tools, weapons, and fuel. People were nomadic, moving their belongings with dog-pulled travois in order to stay near the wandering herds. Early hunters ambushed bison at water holes, trapped them in gullies, or hunters surrounded. Later, bison were stampeded over cliffs (buffalo jumps) or trapped in corrals (buffalo pounds). Horses and rifles changed the hunt, allowing a single skillful hunter to kill many animals for his family and tribe. For more than 11,000 years, Indians lived and thrived in Saskatchewan, hunting buffalo and other animals, and gathering wild plants for food. Evidence of their activities, found at many sites throughout the Province, give us insights into their life.

Early History European Settlement Later Settlement The 1920s The 1930s ... Chronology In North America, Indian peoples in the east were the first agricultural producers. They raised crops such as corn (maize), beans and pumpkins to feed themselves. Their agricultural endeavours helped to maintain their economic life and to encourage the growth of their culture for hundreds of years before the arrival of the European settlers. Indian agricultural understanding and ecological knowledge was shown by choosing crops that were suited to the climate. These crops helped feed the European settlers who came to North America in the 17th century. The early settlers began farming in Lower Canada and introduced European varieties of grains. During the 19th century farming activity spread westward from eastern Canada and northward from the United States. hybridization Western Canada was first known for its rich furs, drawing explorers and fur traders to the prairie and forest regions. Early Indian peoples in the area now called Saskatchewan , were basically hunters and gatherers. Little agricultural activity occurred in the West because of the hunting and gathering lifestyle of the Indian peoples. Settlement by non-Aboriginal immigrants began in the parkland area of Saskatchewan, although a few ranches existed in the southwest in the 1880s.

Moose Jaw museum exhibit Lang family toy collection a part of Saskatchewan history By DANIEL SAVOIE of Weyburn Review Some of the best treasures are often locked away in an attic somewhere. For the Saskatchewan Western Development Museum in Moose Jaw, that attic is located in a large old house in Lang. For its latest collection, the museum will feature an extensive collection of toys owned by the Bladon family of Lang, circa 1910-1920. More than 300 artifacts, 200 of which are well preserved playthings, will be featured in the "In a Prairie Attic: Bladon Family Toys" exhibit, starting on Friday, April 26 with a special ceremony at 4 p.m. "I've been with the museum a good number of years and this is the best acquisition we've ever had," said Ruth Bitner, the collections curator for the museum. "The quantity and good condition of the collection is very unusual, with most of the toys still preserved in their original boxes. It's obvious that the children took really good care of their things." The Bladons were an Illinois family who immigrated to Lang in 1910, getting off the train in Yellow Grass and travelling 15 miles with their horses and cattle to the new family farm. There were seven children in the family, five boys and two girls. The youngest daughter, Mildred Rea, is the only surviving family member.

A Note to Authors History The Grey Cup: The Complete History Graham Kelly ISBN 0-921835-53-1 Hardcover $27.95 The Grey Cup: The Complete History is the inside story of Canada's premier sporting event and the most comprehensive book ever written on our national classic. From the first game in 1909 to the eighty-sixth in 1998, Graham Kelly covers it all, drawing on extensive research and on thirty-five years of personal interviews and observations, which take you behind the scenes of the Holy Grail of Canadian football. From the greats to the not-so-greats, they're all here. You'll discover the truth about the Mud Bowl Myth, which claims a Blue Bomber player almost drowned on the field when he was knocked face down in the mud. You'll learn how, in 1984, cheese sandwiches almost cost the Stampeders the Grey Cup. Was the coach being a little too thrifty when he insisted all players eat only cheese sandwiches on the road? You'll read about courageous struggles against racism by Rollie Miles, Johnny Bright and George Reed. You'll learn how, over two decades, the outlandish Lou Cahill was reincarnated for the Toronto Argonauts three times. You'll discover why everyone in 1954 wondered if perhaps lockjaw could keep the Peanut Butter King (Joe Capp) from talking too much. You'll read the truth behind the Etcheverry-Patterson trade and why confession isn't always good for the soul. The Grey Cup: The Complete History has all this and much, much more about the men who played, coached, managed and refereed the game. There are exclusive stories that you can't find in any other football history because they come from the personal, extensive and comprehensive records of Graham Kelly - the man whose love of football began when he was waterboy and assistant equipment manager for the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 1956.

Government Saskatchewan: History and People History The name Saskatchewan originated with the Plains Indians. Their word was "kisiskatchewan"- meaning the river that flows swiftly - in reference to the most important waterways running through their territory, the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers. The Canadian plains have long been home to Aboriginal people. The earliest European to enter the area was Henry Kelsey, a Hudson's Bay Company agent, who followed the Saskatchewan River into the southern plains of Saskatchewan in about 1690. The early 1880's were a time of great concern on the Canadian prairie. The aboriginal people on their 'reservations" were starving and freezing to death, the Métis were concerned that they would not receive title to their lands and the promised railway was no longer coming to support the farmers and settlers. Once again the people of the west were in crisis. They called on Louis Riel, the leader of the Métis and the man who had brought Manitoba into Confederation, to assist them in this crisis. After eight months of constitutional negotiations armed conflict broke out in March 1885. Five thousand Canadian troops were sent west and the 'rebellion' was put down. Louis Riel and eight Indian leaders were executed.
