Dear Mayor John Fraser and Councillors: Al Anderson, Peter Ayres, Denise Gibson, Derek Shaw, Owen Strudwick, and Michael Tilitzky; The Wickaninnish Community School Society (WCSS) is pleased to have the opportunity to thank the District of Tofino for its funding contributions to community recreation in 2004 ($6000) and 2005 ($18,000). Many prevention-based recreational programs for children and youth would not be possible without your support. The funding from the District of Tofino provides for one staff person to oversee after-school and evening recreational programs at the Wickaninnish Community School, allowing the Coordinator to work more on writing proposals and securing other means of funding for youth programming. The WCSS would like to propose continued funding from the District of Tofino, commencing in September, 2006 through April, 2007 to support the supervision of the community’s recreational programs in Tofino’s only gymnasium – an essential service in Tofino. We have included the WCSS’s 2004-2005 Annual Report in this package for your review of our programs and services; the current Memorandum of Understanding between the District of Tofino and the WCSS: September 2005 – April, 2006; the current Winter Gym Schedule; and the employment costs to date and projections until April for you. To summarize, we have outlined some of the highlights and other pertinent information below: The Wickaninnish Community School Society was incorporated as a non-profit society in July 1995 and operates out of the Wickaninnish Community School (K-7). The WCSS provides affordable education, cultural, recreation, employment and social programs for children, youth, adults and families in Tofino and outlying communities in Clayoquot Sound. In addition, the WCSS’s mandate includes assessing and delivering programs that achieve the best outcomes for at risk children and youth and utilize community resources to expand lifelong learning opportunities for all ages in an efficient, effective manner. We deliver a broad range of programs and services to people of all ages in our communities. To date, our key program areas have been pre-teen and youth prevention- based life skills and leadership programs, early childhood and family programming, as well as educational, social and recreation programs. We also provide community access to our computer lab and coordinate the rental of space and equipment for community use. This year the WCSS is also starting a Community Garden for all to enjoy. The popularity of WCSS’s programs is evident in the visitor statistics: an average of over 2344 children, youth, adults and seniors access the School District’s facility each month. From July 1, 2004 until June 30, 2005 the Wickaninnish Community School and field had a total of 28,423 participant visits. 1 The WCSS receives its core funding of $46,000 from the Ministry of Education’s Community Link funding which is allocated to three west coast communities, Port Alberni, Bamfield and Tofino, by School District 70 (Alberni). Each year we are unsure if the community school will receive its core funding due to the effects of ongoing Provincial Government cutbacks. In 2002 the WCSS’s yearly funding was reduced by $29,000, a reduction of almost 39%. Each year, the WCSS appeals to the School District for its core funding - an unnerving uncertainty. The core funds are used to cover the Coordinator’s salary and some office expenses. All of our programs operate on a cost recovery basis and/or rely on outside funding sources to be able to run. The WCSS is responsible for overseeing all programs at the Wickaninnish Community School after-school hours, seven days/week. Typically our programs operate Monday – Friday from 4:00pm – 10:00pm. The gym slots are available from September through April each year. The WCSS has a fall and winter session, each 14 weeks, where community groups may rent out two hour blocks of time in the gym. Each adult gym slot costs $350.00 per session, which is equivalent to a minimal fee of approximately $2 per person per use based on a 12 member team.

  • The Fur Trade and Early Capitalist Development in British Columbia
    THE FUR TRADE AND EARLY CAPITALIST DEVELOPMENT IN BRITISH COLUMBIA RENNIE WARBURTON, Department of Sociology, University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, V8W 2Y2. and STEPHEN SCOTT, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1S 5B6. ABSTRACT/RESUME Although characterized by unequal exchange, the impact of the fur trade on the aboriginal societies of what became British Columbia involved minimal dis- ruption because the indigenous modes of production were easily articulated with mercantile capitalism. It was the problems arising from competition and increasing costs of transportation that led the Hudson's Bay Company to begin commodity production in agriculture, fishing and lumbering, thereby initiating capitalist wage-labour relations and paving the way for the subsequent disast- rous decline in the well-being of Native peoples in the province. Bien que characterisé par un échange inégale, l'impact du commerce de fourrure sur les societiés aborigonaux sur ce qui est devenu la Colombie Britanique ne dérangèrent pas les societés, car les modes indigènes de production était facile- ment articulés avec un capitalisme mercantile. Ce sont les problèmes qui venaient de la competition et les frais de transportation qui augmentaient qui mena la Companie de la Baie d'Hudson à commencer la production de commodités dans les domaines de l'agriculture, la pêche et l'exploitement du bois. Par ce moyen elle initia des rapports de salaire-travail capitalist et prépara les voies pour aboutir å une reduction catastrophique du bien-être des natifs dans cette province. THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NATIVE STUDIES V, 1(1985):27-46 28 R E N N I E W A R B U R T O N / S T E P H E N S C O T T INTRODUCTION In the diverse cultures in British Columbia prior to and after contact with the Europeans, economic activity included subsistence hunting, fishing and gathering as well as domestic handicrafts.

Urrea Master of Arts University of Oregon History Department September 2019 Title: “Our People Scattered:” Violence, Captivity, and Colonialism on the Northwest Coast, 1774-1846” This thesis interrogates the practice, economy, and sociopolitics of slavery and captivity among Indigenous peoples and Euro-American colonizers on the Northwest Coast of North America from 1774-1846. Through the use of secondary and primary source materials, including the private journals of fur traders, oral histories, and anthropological analyses, this project has found that with the advent of the maritime fur trade and its subsequent evolution into a land-based fur trading economy, prolonged interactions between Euro-American agents and Indigenous peoples fundamentally altered the economy and practice of Native slavery on the Northwest Coast.
