Canada's Digital Collections

In 2001, Oshki-Pimache-O-Win Education and Training Institute was approved as a contractor for Canada's Digital Collections.  The Canada's Digital Collections program gives youth aged 15 to 30 the opportunity to gain valuable on-the-job experience and skills producing web sites about Canada for display on the World Wide Web.  The program also enables Canadian cultural institutions and other organizations to improve access to their collections and promotes creative new business ventures across the country.  Our website "The Signing of Treaty Nine" is a virtual journey tracing the route of the commissioners in 1905 and 1906 as they travelled to thirteen communities for the signing of Treaty Nine.  The locations on the journey are linked to archival and present day materials showing the communities - then and now.  In addition, each point on the journey will be linked to print and audio versions of the travel journal of the trip.
