Proposed Reorganization: Proposed Calendar Description for Both Courses Proposed reorganization: We would like to replace CSC 220 described above, with the two courses listed below: 1. CSC 115: Discrete Computational Mathematicsl 2. CSC 215: Discrete Computational Mathematics II Proposed calendar description for both courses: CSC 115 Discrete Computational Mathematics I This course introduces the student to the mathematical models and formalisms that are of genuine use in Computer Science and Mathematics. The topics covered include set theory, principles of counting, logic, mathematical induction, relations and functions, ?nite—state machines, and the principle of inclusion and exclusion. Prerequisite: Math 12 or Math 050 or Math 100 3 CR / (3, 0) CSC 215 Discrete Computational Mathematics II This course is a continuation of CSC 115. Topics covered include generating functions, recurrence relations, graph theory, trees, optimization and matching, rings and modular arithmetic, Boolean algebra and switching functions, coding theory, ?nite ?elds, and combinatorial designs. Prerequisite.‘ CSC 115 and Math 101 3CR/(3,0) Proposed calendar changes to the Career Path Index: The current career path index for computer science is the 2D package. After consulting with the Counselling and Academic Advising Department, it was determined that, the best package for computer science majors will be 2C if a minor change is made to the 2C package. The Computer Science Department does endorse the change recommended. Below is the current listing of the 2C package in the calendar: Package Semester I Semester II Notes CHEM 113 CHEM 114 1. Prerequisites: ENGL 101 or 103 ENGL 102 or 104 M311112 or MATH 100 2C MATH 101 MATH 102 01- MATH 050, CSC 109 CSC 110 Chemistry 11 or PHYS 105 PHYS 106 CHEM 045) Physics 11 or PHYS 045. The proposed calendar listing of the 2C package is given next: Package Semester I Semester II Notes CHEM 113 CHEM 114 1. Prerequisites: ENGL 101 or 103 ENGL 102 or 104 Mat}, 12 or MATH 100 2C MATH 101 MATH 102 or MATH 050) CSC 109 CSC 110 Chemist,-y 11 or PHYS 105 or PHYS 106 CHEM 0457 CSC 115 Physics 11 or PHYS 045. The changed 2C package is most appropriate for students wishing to major in computer science. Also, there will no effect on the other disciplines for which 2C serves as the preferred package since PHYS 105 is not a prerequisite for PHYS 106. Rationale for proposed changes: In attempt was made to cover all the introductory and intermeateantopics in Discrete Mathematics in one semester. This did not give students adequate time to master the fundamental concepts before dealing with more advanced ones, i.e., both were dealt with in a single semester. Hence, an otherwise important and interesting Computer Science course became too challenging for the average student. Consequently, enrollments in CSC 220 and the computer science courses for which it serves as a prerequisite have suffered. The Department of Computer Science is con?dent that the reorganization of CSC 220 to CSC 115 and CSC2l5, will rectify this problem. With two courses in Discrete Mathematics, students would focus on introductory concepts in one semester, thereby, being able to master them without plunging into more dif?cult or intermediate concepts. The intermediate concepts become relatively easy for the students to handle since they are better prepared for them. Also, the focus of the students is restricted to just one class of concepts. Finally, this approach has been adopted by most major universities on the continent for the very reasons stated earlier.

The fullest expression of the whig interpretation of western Canadian history is to be found in the works of George F.G. Stanley and W.L. Morton. In presenting a narrative reconstruction of the events surrounding Canada's annexation of Red River, these authors primarily attempt to justify Canadian policy as the extension of British civilization.

Until the Hudson Bay Company and North West Company joined together in 1821, Fort St. James was the centre of government and commerce in British Columbia (then called New Caledonia). It claims to be the oldest established white settlement on the B.C. Mainland 1807 February 10th Simon Fraser wrote a letter to express what he witnessed in Stella (Stellaquo). “Almost all Natlians are gone over to Steela.. to grand feast to burn and exhume a couple of chiefs that died of late. When they return from there they will go to the mountains to kill Caribou.” 1828 Chief Kwah captured James Douglas at Ft. St. James, whom he held until his release was negotiated. The incident lead to conflict among different Carrier Nations. Douglas went on to become the first governor of the united colony of British Columbia.

    Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 CAUT Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 The following document offers the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) recommended territorial acknowledgement for institutions where our members work, organized by province. While most of these campuses are included, the list will gradually become more complete as we learn more about specific traditional territories. When requested, we have also included acknowledgements for other post-secondary institutions as well. We wish to emphasize that this is a guide, not a script. We are recommending the acknowledgements that have been developed by local university-based Indigenous councils or advisory groups, where possible. In other places, where there are multiple territorial acknowledgements that exist for one area or the acknowledgements are contested, the multiple acknowledgements are provided.

    The Ethno-Genesis of the Mixed-Ancestry Population in New Caledonia Duane Thomson n British Columbia and elsewhere in Canada the question of which mixed-ancestry persons qualify for Métis status is a largely unresolved public policy issue. Whether this issue is eventually Idecided by legal decisions or by political accommodation, the historical background relating to British Columbia’s mixed-ancestry population is an important element in the discussion and requires detailed exploration. Historical research conducted for the Department of Justice forms the basis of this study of the ethno-genesis of the mixed-ancestry population of central British Columbia.1 To understand the parameters of this research, some background regarding the 2003 R. v. Powley decision in the Supreme Court of Canada is necessary. The Court ruled that Steve and Roddy Powley, two mixed-ancestry men from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, qualified for Métis status. They thus enjoyed a constitutionally protected right to hunt for food under s. 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982.2 In its decision, the Court also set out the criteria that succeeding mixed-ancestry applicants must meet to similarly qualify for Métis status. One important criterion was that Métis Aboriginal rights rest in the existence of a historic, self- 1 For a summary of some of these legal and political issues, see Jean Barman and Mike Evans, “Reflections on Being, and Becoming, Métis in British Columbia,” BC Studies 161 (Spring 2009): 59-91. New Caledonia is the region chosen by Barman and Evans in their attempt to show that a Métis community developed in British Columbia.

Alan Bermant Abstract: This article examines the upcoming 1998 referendum on self- determination in New Caledonia through the larger contextual lens of French historical involvement in the territory. The article addresses the impact French colonization has had on Kanak culture, legal institutions, social organization and economic livelihood. The historical policies of the French government are canvassed by exploring the manner in which France manipulated the legal process and political institutions it created in New Caledonia to entrench colonial control. The article concludes that the process of decolonization is unlikely to be completed in the near future. Finally, the article discusses the potential consequences for France and the international community of French non-compliance with its international legal obligations.

  • Atlantic Colonies?
    WHAT SHAPED THE ATLANTIC COLONIES? Have you ever wondered why Canada today is divided into provinces and territories? In 1850, British North America was made up of separate colonies and territories. The colonies were under the British government’s political control and the territories were governed by the British Hudson’s Bay Company. The Atlantic colonies were Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The colonies farther inland were Canada East (present-day Québec) and Canada West (present-day Ontario). The Northwest region and New Caledonia were governed by Hudson’s Bay Company. Britain established these colonies and territories on Aboriginal FIGURE 1.1 This map shows British FIGURE 1.2 This 1865 drawing lands.

    OLD MSS HUDSON’S BAY COMPANY RECORDS The records listed below – with the exception of the first six1 - are Hudson’s Bay Co. and related records that were catalogued under a system used by the BC Archives between the mid-1930s and early 1970s (known as the “Old MSS” system) and are only described in detail in the “Old MSS” card catalogue. The descriptions have mostly been taken from the cards and the list is in call number order. The notation “BOOK” after a call number means that the record is a bound volume; “MS”, loose pages. There may be duplicate numbers, one for a BOOK and one for an MS – these are distinct and different records. While most of the records listed below are from the colonial era (ca. 1849-1871), there are some later records as well. Also, a number of colonial era records (a number of which originally had “old MSS” numbers) are to be found as GR and MS records, and are searchable on our collections database (http://search-bcarchives.royalbcmuseum.bc.ca/).
