  • Indigenous History in Burnaby Resource Guide

Indigenous History in Burnaby Resource Guide 6501 Deer Lake Ave, Burnaby, BC V5G 3T6 | 604-297-4565 | burnabyvillagemuseum.ca 2019-06-03 The Burnaby School District is thankful to work, play and learn on the traditional territories of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ and Sḵwxwú7mesẖ speaking people. As we inquire into learning more about the history of these lands, we are grateful to Burnaby Village Museum for working with our host First Nation communities. The knowledge being shared in this resource guide through our local communities supports the teaching and learning happening in our classrooms. It deepens our understanding of the history of our community and will increase our collective knowledge of our host First Nations communities’ history in Burnaby. In our schools, this guide will assist in creating place-based learning opportunities that will build pride for our Indigenous learners through the sharing of this local knowledge, but also increase understanding for our non-Indigenous learners. Through this guide, we can move closer to the Truth and Reconciliation’s Call to Action 63 (i and iii): 63. We call upon the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada to maintain an annual commitment to Indigenous education issues, including: i. Developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Indigenous peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools. iii. Building student capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. We would like extend thanks to Burnaby Village Museum staff for their time and efforts in creating this resource guide.

But municipal finances do not receive the same degree of public scrutiny as more senior governments. This can pose a problem for taxpayers and voters who want to understand how their municipal government performs, especially compared to other municipalities. To help create awareness and encourage debate, this report provides a summary analysis of important financial information for 17 of the 21 municipal- ities in Metro Vancouver, spanning a 10-year period (2002–2012). The intention is not to make an assessment of any municipality’s finances—for instance, whether taxes or spending are too high or whether municipal governments produce good value for taxpayers.

  • Statement of Significance 2333 Clarke Street Port Moody, BC July 2020
    Statement of Significance 2333 Clarke Street Port Moody, BC July 2020 Photograph Courtesy of Google Street View, dated September 2019. July 2020 1 [email protected] Introduction The researching and writing of this Statement of Significance has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in limited research opportunities. The Port Moody Heritage Society and the Port Moody Station Museum has kindly conducted some research and provided the information it has on the property. A site visit was conducted by this author on July 9, 2020 and photographs taken from public property. Other photographs are courtesy of Google Street View and Google Maps. The subject building is located at 2333 Clarke Street in Port Moody, British Columbia. A Statement of Significance (SOS) is a concise document that describes the heritage value of a place and identifies the character-defining elements that must be retained in order for that heritage value to remain. The heritage value is determined by assessing the property for aesthetic, cultural, historic, scientific, social, and/or spiritual importance or significance for past, present and future generations. The value categories are listed alphabetically, rather than by importance. This method of assessing heritage value is taken from “The Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada”, Second Edition, 2010, a pan-Canadian document created to guide heritage conservation work in Canada.1 The heritage values of a place are embodied in character-defining elements typically

  • Evacuation Operational Guide for First Nations and Local Authorities In
    EVACUATION OPERATIONAL GUIDE FOR FIRST NATIONS AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES IN BRITISH COLUMBIA A guide to managing evacuations during emergency response 2nd edition, 24 July, 2021 AMENDMENT RECORD Version # Release Date Description 1 2009 Original document with templates 2 July 4, 2019 Fully revised document with templates 3 July 24, 2021 Update to Natural Gas shut off recommendation 2 For advice and assistance with an evacuation, contact EMBC’s 24/7 Emergency Coordination Centre at 1-800-663-3456 and request to speak with the Regional Duty Manager for your region, or PREOC, if activated. EVACUATION QUICK-REFERENCE GUIDES The quick-reference guides on the following pages provide a simplified reference tool for Emergency Operation Centres (EOC) or designated community contacts (CC) to follow when issuing an Evacuation Alert, Order, or Rescind. For a glossary of all acronyms used in this guide, refer to Appendix A. A NOTE ABOUT FIRST NATIONS’ USE OF SOLE, EVAUCATION ALERT, ORDER, RESCIND TEMPLATES Based on engagement with various First Nations communities and agencies across BC, and with Indigenous Services Canada (ISC), the Province now recommends declaring a State of Local Emergency (SOLE); and issuing Evacuation Alerts, Orders, and Rescinds for both First Nations communities on reserve as well as Local Authorities. It has been a common practice for First Nations to utilize Band Council Resolutions (BCR) for these purposes, and they are welcome to continue to do so, should they choose. While it is not a mandatory process for non-treaty First Nations to declare a SOLE; or to issue Evacuation Alerts, Orders and Rescinds as recommended within this guide, choosing to do so will allow for one simple process for all communities with the intention of reducing communication barriers .
