  • Okanagan Water Systems: an Historical Retrospect of Control, Domination and Change
    OKANAGAN WATER SYSTEMS: AN HISTORICAL RETROSPECT OF CONTROL, DOMINATION AND CHANGE by MARLOWE SAM B.A., The University of British Columbia - Okanagan, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE COLLEGE OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Interdisciplinary Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) September 2008 © Marlowe Sam, 2008 Abstract In this study, I examine the history of colonial control, domination, and change that began in the Interior Plateau region of British Columbia in 1811 when interaction between the Syilx (Okanagan) and European explorers first occurred. I focus on water use practices in particular, employing an indigenous Syilx approach (En’owkinwixw) in order to display the negative impacts of colonial policies on the Syilx and their environment. The En’owkinwixw methodology, which calls for the incorporation of multiple perspectives, is thousands of years old, but has been modified here from its original consensus-based decision-making process. The manner in which the U.S. government developed resource and water management policies in America’s arid Far West directly influenced the models that were later adopted by British Columbia and Canada. U.S. Supreme Court decisions along with a number of international treaties and trade agreements between the United States and Canada have also compromised the ability of the Syilx to maintain a sustainable and harmonious relationship with their environment. Depression era policies in the United States led to the implementation of large-scale projects such as the damming of the Columbia River that had further negative consequences on the environment of the Interior Plateau.

  • St-Andrews-History.Pdf
    St. Andrews on the Square is one of Kamloops’ oldest public buildings. It dates to the early history of this city – back to 1887. In four short months, this church went from an idea and initiative to a reality. This work looks chronologically at the history of St. Andrews. Along the way, glimpses of the history of Kamloops will also unfold. From the early Presbyterian missionary years, to Reverend John Chisholm, Phil Gaglardi, and to the restorations of 1996–1998, St. Andrews is a glimpse into our rich and diverse past. In 1872 a Presbyterian minister by the name of George M. Grant visited Kamloops. At this time, Kamloops was a small village nestled along the confluence of two rivers. Kamloops had one main street, coincidently named Main Street (now called Victoria Street), and a few other buildings that were located west of what is today First Avenue. George Grant was traveling at the time with Stanford Fleming as Fleming’s personal secretary. Both men worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway (C.P.R.). Grant conducted Presbyterian services on September 29, 1872 in the old dining room of the Hudson’s Bay Company fort – Fort Kamloops. In the years following 1872, Kamloops continued to be visited by various other Presbyterian Ministers. Their religious services were held in the old log courthouse that was located at the extreme west end of town. When a new wood framed courthouse was build in the late nineteenth century on First Avenue and Victoria Street, all religious services were moved there. Reverend George Murray was the first Presbyterian Minister to start regular meetings and services in Kamloops.

  • Settler Anxiety and State Support for Missionary Schooling in Colonial British Columbia, 1849–1871
    57 Historical Studies in Education / Revue d’histoire de l’éducation ARTICLES / ARTICLES Settler Anxiety and State Support for Missionary Schooling in Colonial British Columbia, 1849–1871 Sean Carleton Mount Royal University ABSTRACT Indigenous peoples and settlers engaged in innumerable conflicts in the colonies of Vancouver Island and British Columbia between 1849 and 1871. The constant threat of violent Indigenous resistance to settler colonization in the Pacific Northwest — both real and imag- ined — produced feelings of anxiety for settlers, especially state officials, that shaped colonial strategy and statecraft. To buttress colonial security, the nascent state partnered with Christian missionaries in the hope that missionaries could use education to cultivate the goodwill of Indigenous peoples and train them to accept colonization. The state’s support for early mis- sionary schooling in colonial British Columbia is examined in the context of settler anxieties regarding three instances of Indigenous resistance: a Lekwungen convergence at Fort Victoria in 1851, the Puget Sound War of 1855–56, and the 1864 Tsilhqot'in War. In different ways, settler anxiety over these conflicts acted as a catalyst, prodding the state to support mission- ary schooling as a financially expeditious way of trying to contain Indigenous resistance and safeguard colonial security. RÉSUMÉ Entre 1849 et 1871, les colonies de l’île de Vancouver et de la Colombie-Britannique sont le lieu d’innombrables conflits entre les peuples autochtones et les colons. La menace constante — réelle et imaginaire — d’une résistance violente des Autochtones à la colonisation dans le nord-ouest du Pacifique a engendré un sentiment d’anxiété chez les colons, et en parti- culier chez les fonctionnaires de l’État, ce qui a façonné la stratégie et la gestion coloniale.

  • Cannibalism and Infertility Among the Lillooet, Thompson, and Shuswap, And, Thus, Mediates Sexual Imbalance
    CANNIBALISM AND INFERTILITY AMONG THE LILLOOET, THOMPSON, AND SHUSWAP: THE SHAMAN AS A SEXUAL MEDIATOR by MARCIA STEPHANIE CALKOWSKI B.A., Rice University, 1970 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in the Department • of Anthropology and Sociology We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA June, 1974 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department: or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of Anthropology and Sociology The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date June 26, 1974 ii ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to demonstrate that the symbolic significance of food gathering among the Lillooet, Thompson, and Shuswap generates two major paradoxes, cannibalism and infertility, which arise from a sexual imbalance revealed by certain myths related to food gathering, and that the shaman is a potential mediator of these paradoxes. Initially, I suggest that an analysis of the symbol system of a culture affords an excellent access to native perspective if the analyst is able to avoid the influences of his ethnocentrism with respect to his methodology and selection of data. Thus, analytical methods must possess universal applicability, and the data (native categories of thought) might be selected from native solutions to problems occurring to all humans-- e.g., cultural solutions and conceptions of those solutions to food gathering.
