  • FNESS Strategic Plan
    Strategic Plan 2013-2015 At a Glance FNESS evolved from the Society of Native Indian Fire Fighters of BC (SNIFF), which was established in 1986. SNIFF’s initial objectives were to help reduce the number of fire-related deaths on First Nations reserves, but it changed its emphasis to incorporate a greater spectrum of emergency services. In 1994, SNIFF changed its name to First Nations’ Emergency Services Society of BC to reflect the growing diversity of services it provides. Today our organization continues to gain recognition and trust within First Nations communities and within Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) and other organizations. This is reflected in both the growing demand of service requests from First Nations communities and the development of more government-sponsored programs with FNESS. r e v Ri k e s l A Inset 1 Tagish Lake Teslin 1059 Daylu Dena Atlin Lake 501 Taku River Tlingit r e v Liard Atlin Lake i R River ku 504 Dease River K Fort a e Nelson T r t 594 Ts'kw'aylaxw e c iv h R ik River 686 Bonaparte a se a 687 Skeetchestn e D Fort Nelson R i v e First Nations in 543 Fort Nelson Dease r 685 Ashcroft Lake Dease Lake 592 Xaxli'p British Columbia 593 T'it'q'et 544 Prophet River 591 Cayoose Creek 692 Oregon Jack Creek 682 Tahltan er 683 Iskut a Riv kw r s e M u iv R Finlay F R Scale ra e n iv s i er 610 Kwadacha k e i r t 0 75 150 300 Km S 694 Cook's Ferry Thutade R r Tatlatui Lake i e 609 Tsay Keh Dene v Iskut iv 547 Blueberry River e R Lake r 546 Halfway River 548 Doig River 698 Shackan Location

Declining metal prices resulted in the closure of the last producing mine in 1957, but in recent years extensive geophysical and geochemical surveys have been made by several major exploration com­ panies and new prospects have been discovered.

  • Ecoregions with Grasslands in British Columbia, the Yukon, and Southern Ontario
    83 Chapter 4 Ecoregions with Grasslands in British Columbia, the Yukon, and Southern Ontario Joseph D. Shorthouse Department of Biology, Laurentian University Sudbury, Ontario, Canada P3E 2C6 Abstract. The second largest grasslands of Canada are found in south-central British Columbia in valleys between mountain ranges and on arid mountain-side steppes or benchlands. The province contains five ecozones, with most of the grassland habitat in the Montane Cordillera Ecozone. This ecozone consists of a series of plateaux and low mountain ranges and comprises 17 ecoregions, 7 of which contain grasslands. Dominant grasses here are bunchgrasses. A few scattered grasslands are found in the Yukon in the Boreal Cordillera Ecozone within three ecoregions. Grasslands in southwestern Ontario consist of about 100 small remnants of what was once much more abundant tallgrass prairie. These grasslands grow in association with widely spaced deciduous trees and are remnants of a past prairie peninsula. Grasslands called alvars are also found on flat limestone bedrock in southern Ontario. This chapter briefly describes the physiography, climate, soils, and prominent flora of each ecoregion for the benefit of future biologists wishing to study the biota of these unique grasslands. Résumé. Les prairies du centre-sud de la Colombie-Britannique sont les deuxièmes plus vastes au Canada. Elles se trouvent dans les vallées séparant les chaînes de montagnes, et sur les steppes ou replats arides à flanc de montagne. La province renferme cinq écozones, et l’habitat de prairies se trouve principalement dans l’écozone de la cordillère alpestre. Cette écozone est constituée d’une série de plateaux et de chaînes de montagnes basses et se divise en 17 écorégions, dont 7 renferment des prairies.

The help and patience of personnel from the Yukon Archives, Hudson's Bay Arohives, and Publio Archives of Canada, partioularly Bob Armstrong, the arohivist in charge of Fisheries documents, is gratefully acknowledged. Interviews with Yukon residents: G.I. Cameron, Charles "Chappie ft Chapman, Silvester Jack, Dorothy Jackson, Elizabeth Nyman, Angela Sidney, George Simmons, Virginia Smarch, Dora Wedge and Ed Whjtehouse provided information that was otherwise not available. Julie Cruikshank suggested useful reference resouroes for Indian fishing information. Aileen Horler and Tim Osler offered suggestions during the embryonic stage of the study. Valuable editorial comments were provided by Gavin Johnston. Sandy Johnston provided ourrent information on the Canada/U.S. Yukon River salmon negotiations. The report was typed by Norma Felker, Sharilyn Gattie and Kelly Wilkinson. ii SUMMARY Prior to the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898, fishing in the Yukon was primarily done by indigenous peoples for subsistenoe. For a number of Indian bands, fish, and partioularly salmon, was the primary food souroe. Contaot with White furtraders initiated a ohange in the Indian lifestyle.
