It seeks to provide an accurate account of the main events: the killings and the para-military expeditions which resulted from them.

Finally, it examines the attitudes of whites towards the Indians as revealed in the actions they took and the views they expressed in connection with the uprising and the resulting expeditions to the Chilcotin territory.

    Indian Reserves Allotted for Fishing Purposes in British Columbia, 1849-1925

    Indian Reserves Allotted for Fishing Purposes in British Columbia, 1849-1925 Douglas C. Harris This table accompanies Landing Native Fisheries: Indian Reserves and Fishing Rights in British Columbia, 1849-1925, by Douglas C. Harris (Vancouver: UBC Press, 2008). It provides additional and supporting detail for the Indian reserves that were specifically allotted for fishing purposes. The table is organized geographically and by First Nations language group or regional affiliation. It begins with the reserves allotted to the Coast Salish, and then moves inland, following the Fraser River, to the reserves allotted to the Nlha7kapmx, Stl’alt’imc, Secwepmec, and Tsilqot’in. It then moves east into the Columbia River drainage basin to include the reserves allotted to the Okanagan and Ktunaxa. The table then returns to the coast and works north from the Nuu-chah-nulth reserves on the west coast of Vancouver Island, to the reserves of the Kwakwaka’wkaw, Oweekeno, Heiltsuk, Nuxalk, Haisla, Tsimshian, Haida, and Nisga’a. It then follows the Skeena River inland, listing the reserves allotted to the Gitxsan and Wet’suwet’en, and then the Dakleh reserves of the upper Fraser and Skeena rivers. Finally, it lists the Sekani and Tahltan reserves in the north. With the exception of the reserves allotted under Treaty 8 in north eastern British Columbia, the table lists every reserve allotted for fishing purposes in British Columbia, the First Nation to which the reserve was allotted, the date of the allotment, the person responsible for allotting the reserve, and an extract from the document creating or confirming the reserve that included a reference to the fishery.

    COLONIALISM, CAPITALISM, AND THE RISE OF STATE SCHOOLING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA, 1849-1900 A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, Anishinaabe Territory © Copyright by Sean Carleton 2016 Canadian Studies Ph.D Graduate Program May 2016 ABSTRACT Colonialism, Capitalism, and the Rise of State Schooling in British Columbia, 1849-1900 Sean Carleton This dissertation examines the historical relationship between settler colonialism, capitalism, and the rise of state schooling in what is now known as British Columbia between 1849 and 1900. It aims to “unsettle” conventional views of Canadian schooling history by bringing accounts of Indigenous and non-Indigenous education into one analytical frame, and it shows how the state used different forms of schooling for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous children—company, common, public, mission, day, boarding, and industrial schools—to assist colonial-capitalist social formation in the Pacific Northwest. In combining interdisciplinary insights from Indigenous studies, historical materialism, political economy, and critical pedagogy, the dissertation highlights the ways in which state-supported schooling facilitated capitalist accumulation by colonial dispossession. The central argument of the dissertation is that between 1849 and 1900, colonial, provincial, and federal governments strategically took on greater responsibility for schooling as a way of legitimizing the state and supporting the emergence of a capitalist settler society. KEYWORDS: Settler Colonialism; Capitalism; Education; Indigenous Peoples; Violence; Indian Residential Schools; History; Political Economy; British Columbia; Canada. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I gratefully acknowledge the funding I received from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) to complete this dissertation.

This part of the region is steeped in Tsilhqot’in First Nation History, as well as the settler traditions of ranching and guide outfitting. Be prepared to be blown away by not only the abundant wildlife but also the vastness of this ever-changing landscape Williams Lake: Williams Lake is the hub city of the Cariboo region. It’s also a mountain biking mecca that serves up some of BC’s best backcountry biking on Westsyde Ridge, Desous Mountain, and Fox Mountain. The River Valley Trail also offers a 12 km gravel trail down to the Fraser River that’s great for walking, running, mountain biking and horseback riding. For nature and wildlife addicts, Scout Island houses a nature sanctuary with a beach, picnic grounds and a wide variety of small animals and birds. If history interests you, Williams Lake has a rich First Nations history and it is named after Chief William of the Secwepemc First Nation. Also, because Williams Lake is in the heart of Cowboy Country, it hosts a famous rodeo, the Williams Lake Stampede, every year in July, drawing rodeo buffs from all over the world. We highly encourage you to take a 1 day and have a look around and stop into the BC Cowboy Hall of Fame, located in the Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin, which is open daily and offers an interesting insight into the lives and histories of the regions’ cowboy past.

V9P 1A3 e-mail: [email protected] 23932 Telegraph Bay Road, Victoria, B.C. V8N 4H7 Abstract: We speculate on the occurrence and distribution of the native Canada Goose on Vancouver Island before the arrival of the first Europeans and discuss the current taxonomy and status of native Canada Goose subspecies that breed, migrate through, or winter on the island. We also document Canada Goose introductions and consider the status of these exotic, ‘resident’ birds, their dispersal, and population growth. We conclude that before the introductions, the Canada Goose was only a rare breeding bird on the northern half of Vancouver Island.

  • The Chilcotin Uprising of 1864

    The Chilcotin Uprising of 1864 EDWARD SLEIGH HEWLETT The "Chilcotin Uprising" was a disturbance which broke out in April of 1864 when a group of Chilcotin Indians massacred fourteen workmen on a trail being built from Bute Inlet to the interior of British Columbia. Variously referred to in the accounts of the time as a series of massacres, as an insurrection, and as a war, the Chilcotin Uprising was the type of reaction to the inroads of Europeans which certain modern historians would prefer to label as a "resistance." "Uprising" is adequately descrip­ tive without reflecting any particular theory of social action. Numerous violent incidents involving hostility between whites and Indians occurred in the early history of what is now British Columbia. A. G. Morice gives examples of some which occurred in the interior dur­ ing the era of the fur trade.1 Though individual acts of violence occurred during this period, there is reason to believe that because of the interde­ pendence of the fur trader and the Indian a relatively stable relationship involving a considerable degree of trust had been built up over a period of time between the fur traders and many groups of native people with whom they had to do. However, this trust does not seem to have developed between the fur traders and the Chilcotins. After the Fraser River gold rush which began in 1858 clashes occurred which indicated a marked difference between the earlier relationship of Indian and fur trader and that of the Indian and those whites brought in by the gold rush.2 A difference in the roles of the fur traders and the 1 See, for example, A[drian] Gfabriel] Morice, The History of the Northern Interior of British Columbia, Formerly New Caledonia (Toronto: William Briggs, 1904), p.
