I recently retired and thought it would be much easier for me to “hit the pavement/trails” more regularly than it had been when I was working full time and volunteering part time. And it is easier. And I do have more time, but occasionally I find I have to work on my moti- vation to just get out the door. I have a few tricks that I use to make the initial step out the door. Because I am injury prone, I cannot run every day, so I set the day and time for regular runs in my scheduler. I have my running gear laid out and ready to go the morning I am scheduled to run and I choose different places to run to keep it more interesting. I recently started running to manage some of my other commitments, e.g., taking my car in for servicing near Mayfair and then running home to Esquimalt and back again when it was ready for pick-up. Part of the enjoyment of this was planning the route home and a different route back.

  • COAST SALISH SENSES of PLACE: Dwelling, Meaning, Power, Property and Territory in the Coast Salish World
    COAST SALISH SENSES OF PLACE: Dwelling, Meaning, Power, Property and Territory in the Coast Salish World by BRIAN DAVID THOM Department of Anthropology, McGill University, Montréal March, 2005 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Brian Thom, 2005 Abstract This study addresses the question of the nature of indigenous people's connection to the land, and the implications of this for articulating these connections in legal arenas where questions of Aboriginal title and land claims are at issue. The idea of 'place' is developed, based in a phenomenology of dwelling which takes profound attachments to home places as shaping and being shaped by ontological orientation and social organization. In this theory of the 'senses of place', the author emphasizes the relationships between meaning and power experienced and embodied in place, and the social systems of property and territory that forms indigenous land tenure systems. To explore this theoretical notion of senses of place, the study develops a detailed ethnography of a Coast Salish Aboriginal community on southeast Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Through this ethnography of dwelling, the ways in which places become richly imbued with meanings and how they shape social organization and generate social action are examined. Narratives with Coast Salish community members, set in a broad context of discussing land claims, provide context for understanding senses of place imbued with ancestors, myth, spirit, power, language, history, property, territory and boundaries. The author concludes in arguing that by attending to a theorized understanding of highly local senses of place, nuanced conceptions of indigenous relationships to land which appreciate indigenous relations to land in their own terms can be articulated.

  • Maple Bay Area Plan ~ 2015
    Maple Bay Area Plan ~ 2015 A rural, seaside community that values and protects its natural environment, facilitates outdoor activities, and promotes a strong community spirit for current and future generations. Maple Bay Community Association (MBCA) Maple Bay Area Plan – May, 2015 Introduction This Maple Bay Area Plan has been prepared by the community of Maple Bay through the Maple Bay Community Association (MBCA). At a Community Forum held in November 2013 a “Vision” was drafted and the elements of the plan were identified. The MBCA then organized separate discussion groups with community and business participant members covering Marine, Traffic and Transportation, Community, Development, Environment and Recreation. The information and views received from the 90 participants in these groups have been brought together in this Maple Bay Local Area Plan. The goal of the plan MBCA is to submit it to The District of North Cowichan to be adopted as the Maple Bay Local Area Plan.

  • Garry-Oak.Pdf
    A publication by: NORTHWEST WILDLIFE PRESERVATION SOCIETY Garry Oak Quercus garryana Written by: Jesse Langelier The Garry oak (also called Oregon white oak) is a deciduous tree belonging to a family of oak trees native to the west coast of North America. There are several varieties that extend from the Gulf Islands, southern Vancouver Island, and the Lower Mainland in the north, to northern California in the south. In its northern habitat, and especially in Canada, it supports a unique ecosystem where it serves as the keystone species, meaning it supports a number of other species that would be unable to thrive without the unique landscape characteristic of the ecosystem. For this reason, the Garry oak grass community is rated as the most endangered in BC; but there are numerous successful revitalization efforts happening to help save and study the threatened ecology. Characteristics The Garry oak is a medium sized tree that matures to approximately 20 metres, however, trees as large as 30 metres have been recorded, especially in the Southern end of its range. The bark of mature trees is greyish-black, fire-resistant, NWPS Headquarters NWPS Vancouver Island t Vancouver 604.568.9160 720-1190 Melville Street PO Box 39058 t Victoria 778.967.3379 Vancouver, BC V6E 3W1 RPO James Bay e [email protected] Victoria, BC V8V 4X8 w www.northwestwildlife.com has deep grooves, a scaly appearance, and is abrasive to the touch.

  • Roberts Bank Terminal 2 Panel Submission
    Roberts Bank Terminal 2 Panel Submission Cowichan Tribes, Halalt First Nation, Stz’uminus First Nation Cowichan Nation Alliance Cowichan Tribes, Halalt First Nation, ROBERTS BANK TERMINAL 2 PANEL SUBMISSION Stz'uminus First Nation June 6, 2019 Dear Chair Beaudet, Dr. Levy, and Dr. Steyn On behalf of Cowichan Tribes, Stz'uminus First Nation, and Halalt First Nation, please accept our submission to your Panel regarding the potential impacts of the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 (RBT2) project on the culture and livelihood of our communities. As member communities of the Cowichan Nation, and active representatives of the Cowichan Nation Alliance (CNA), our submission to you - the Panel - is part of a sustained effort on our part to ensure and reinforce our asserted Aboriginal Rights and Title, which extend into and beyond the RBT2 project area. How decisions are reached on projects such as these reflect the process and progress of reconciliation, including how the principles of the United Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), Section 35 of Canada's own Constitution Act 1982, and first and foremost our indigenous laws and protocols are upheld. The proposed Roberts Bank Terminal 2 project and the associated vessel traffic have potential to impact the ability of our communities to exercise their Aboriginal Rights to fish and harvest and threatens to further alienate our cultural connection with the land, water, and all living things in the Salish Sea, including the threatened Southern Resident Killer Whales. This submission contains further detail on the impacts this project could bring to our communities and concerns around the methodology of the Environmental Impact Statement used to assess those impacts.
