Way’ p snaxselxw, our families, our young women, young men, our kids and elders are facing some very difficult times right now. Its hard to know how to help, where to begin and how do we heal from all our trauma and your trauma that has impacted our lives, our community and our families.

LANDS DEPARTMENT UPDATE

“Old Game Farm Land” BACKGROUND The “old Game Farm land” (Parcel AC 55141 CLSR Plan), of Penticton IR #1, was designated on June 1, 1967 to lease for commercial purposes. The K'ul Management Group wishes to lease about 244 hec- tares of Parcel AC 55141 CLSR Plan for the purposes of a recreation park for 99 years under section 53 (1) of the Indian Act for the benefit of the Band.

In preparation for a potential head lease, the Lands Department has been working with K’ul and Indige- nous Services Canada to gather the following necessary information and complete the following tasks: detailed construction plans, servicing arrangements (fire protection, water, sewer), Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA), remediation report for contaminated areas and soil analysis, and a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP). The Archaeological Im- pact Assessment indicated that there are four (4) previously recorded archaeological sites within the area, the RAAD (remote access to archaeological database) indicates the majority of the study area falls within moderate to high archaeological potential, and a portion of the historic Brigade Trail is reported to go through the northern extent of the area.

In addition, to the above, Kul undertook an Appraisal for the game farm lands that considered: access, topography, amenity features, configuration, wildlife, location, size, improvements, historical land use practices, soil, zoning requirements and other factors to determine the value of the land. The Land Ap- praisal did not consider syilx culture and cultural values. As such, the Land Appraisal does not represent the true value of the land and cultural history/resources at the old game farm site.

The Lands Department asked eleven (11) self-identified PIB Elders and Knowledge Keepers how to deter- mine syilx cultural value during the appraisal process. Many indicated that syilx culture was priceless and so could not be valued. Other PIB Elders and Knowledge Keepers informed the Lands Department about their use of the old game farm lands and expressed concern over the loss of that use, particularly for cul- tural transmission purposes. MEMBER ENGAGEMENT The Lands Department is doing further investigation and engagement to gather information to provide to the Appraiser. Due to COVID-19, the Lands Department will not be hosting in-person sessions, however, Joan Phillip, Land Manager will be telephoning PIB family representatives to seek their input. In addition, the Lands Department is requesting that Members consider the following questions and ask their Elders:

Have you or your parents used the “Old Game Farm Property” (aka “Game Farm”)? In what way? How often? When? If you have you ever heard stories about how the Game Farm area was used before it was a Game Farm, would you please share them? If you have you ever heard any old traditional stories about any part of the Game Farm, would you please share them? Are you aware of any traveling routes through any part of the Game Farm property, would you please share them? Are you aware of any “heritage sites” on the old game farm property, would you please share them?

The answers to these questions will be summarized for the benefit of Chief and Council and potentially provide the basis for an adjustment of the appraised value of Parcel A/C, Plan 15144. Please contact Joan Phillip, Land Manager at (250) 493-0048 ext. 217 or [email protected] to book a telephone interview or to contribute information.

Addressing Long-standing Issues with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure PIB has been meeting with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTI), Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation (MIRR) and Attorney General (AG) over the last year on five key issues: Kettle Valley Railway (KVR); Penticton River Channel; Oxbow Lands; Skaha Hills Intersection; and consent-based government-to-government process. KETTLE VALLEY RAILWAY (KVR) Lands were taken from the Band for the purposes of the KVR in the early 1900s and used until the 1970s. As the railway is no longer being used, the Lands must be returned to the Band. KVR Lands are expected to be returned to the Band in the next two (2) months at which time, the Lands Department will begin Member engagement. As part of the return of KVR lands, a report identified 59 encumbrances (ten with Ministry of Transporta- tion and Infrastructure (MoTI) that need to be resolved and restitution provided to the Band. The Lands Department has been actively negotiating with MoTI to resolve those encumbrances and surveying is about to be conducted to identify all encroachments. PENTICTON RIVER CHANNEL In 1955, the Province of British Columbia (BC) acquired PIB Indian Reserve (IR) #1 Land west of the Okanagan River to straighten the river for flood control purposes. As part of that project several Certifi- cate of Possession (CP) Holders properties became landlocked. BC provided $2.4 million through a Condi- tional Grant Agreement (CGA) to build an access road to those properties. The Band was unable to build the road as originally contemplated and instead expended $7 million (fully expending available CGA funds and debt financing an additional $2.1 million) to build a bridge at Lot 539. The Province was holding $900,000, plus interest of CGA funds which are expected to be released to the Band in early September 2020. RETURN OF OXBOW LANDS Previous to the Province’s taking of Lands from IR#1 for the purpose of straightening the river channel, the meandering river was the boundary of the IR#1. The taking of the Land changed the IR#1 boundary and created five “landlocked” oxbows. The Crown agreed to return these five oxbows to IR#1 in the early 1980s. Recently, MoTI has agreed to champion the return of these lands to the Band through its renewed relationship with the Band and a survey of these lands will be conducted in September 2020 as a first step in finally having the Lands returned. SKAHA HILLS INTERSECTION Between 1930 and 1969, the Crown took Lands from IR#1 for construction of the Oliver-Penticton road and a bypass. The Band was not compensated for all of its Lands. The Province of BC identified that the bypass would not constructed and declared the lands surplus. The Band has also raised a concern that there is a burial site underneath Highway 97. The Lands Department has been negotiating to have these lands returned to the Band, the burial site properly protected and for an upgrade to the Skaha Hills inter- section. As a first step in upgrading the intersection, SNC, under the direction of MoTI and the Band, is completing a drainage study that is beginning September 3, 2020, with final engagement and design of the upgraded intersection to begin after completion of the drainage plan. GOVERNMENT- TO-GOVERNMENT RELATIONSHIP Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTI) mandate letter requires that they explore new ap- proaches for recognizing and reconciling Indigenous rights and interests consistent with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). The Chief and Council requested that MOTI negotiate a consent-based, government-to-government proc- ess to reach agreement related to the ongoing concerns that the Band has with MOTI and their access to Band lands. MOTI has agreed to negotiate a new relationship with the Band and has provided resources to complete negotiations, land transfers, member engagement and implement associated work plans to address long-standing issues. The Lands Department will be hiring two term positions to move forward on the government-to-government relationship with MoTI. Stay tuned for upcoming job postings in Septem- ber 2020! sn’pink’tn Cannabis Control Law engagment The federal Crown legalized non-medical cannabis under the Cannabis Act. Under the Cannabis Act, Prov- ince’s are authorized to license the retail sale of cannabis that is obtained from federally licensed cultiva- tors and processors for non-medical purposes. The cannabis industry in Canada is expected to be worth $5 billion by 2021 and could provide urgently needed employment, revenue, and legitimate economic development opportunity for Members. Band tax funding could be used to mitigate the additional health, education, and enforcement costs that will likely result from cannabis sales and cultivation on reserve. Several Members have indicated an interest in opening cannabis dispensaries or production facilities on Band lands. The Act did not specifically provide any authority or jurisdiction for Indigenous Nations. As a result, the Lands Department drafted a sn’pink’tn Cannabis Control Law and held seven (7) engagement sessions with membership in February 2020. Through the engagement sessions, staff felt that Band Members un- derstood the purpose of the Law and support it in principle, however, changes were suggested and addi- tional engagement was requested. Staff are drafting a summary report from the Member engagement on the sn’pink’tn Cannabis Control Law. MEMBER ENGAGEMENT Staff is in the process of revising the Law based on member input and Joan Phillip, Land Manager, will be telephoning PIB family representatives shortly to review the revisions to the Law and seek any further re- visions required prior to presenting the law to Chief and Council for approval in late September 2020. Please contact Joan Phillip, Land Manager at (250) 493-0048 ext. 217 or [email protected] to book a telephone interview or to request a copy of the revised Law to provide feedback to the Lands Depart- ment. Specific Claims: Nicola Prairie IR No. 3 The Nicola Prairie IR No. 3 Claim relates to the surrender and exchange in 1904-1905 of IR No. 3 for less valuable lands now comprising IR No. 3A. The Claim argues that Canada failed to disclose important infor- mation about the value of IR No. 3 to the Band and was imprudent in relation to the surrender/exchange by failing to seek an appraisal of IR No. 3 and by accepting the surrender/exchange on terms that were exploitative.

The Joint Indian Reserve Commission described IR No. 3 as “flat, open land” located “at Nicola Prairie near the crossing of the Creek, a portion of which has already been enclosed and cultivated by the Indi- ans.” There was a plentiful supply of irrigation and domestic water from Eneas Creek (also historically de- scribed as “Nicola River”, “Prairie Creek”, and “Snake Creek”), which flowed through IR No. 3. The Bri- gade Trail also crossed through the Reserve. IR No. 3 is located within the geographic boundaries of the South Okanagan Commonage. At the time of the allotment, Band member Eneas lived and farmed there.

In July 2019, Canada wrote to the Band to seek to negotiate a settlement of the Band’s IR No. 3 Claim in agreement with the Band’s allegations that Canada breached its fiduciary duty by failing to: investigate the exchange of IR No. 3 for IR No. 3A; provide full disclosure and consult with the Band; and, prevent an exploitive bargain and ensure that the Band received adequate compensation. MEMBER ENGAGEMENT The Lands Department is seeking any evidence or information that families may have regarding IR No. 3. Please contact Joan Phillip, Land Manager at (250) 493-0048 ext. 217 or [email protected] to share your information. Negotiation of the settlement of the Claim will be undertaken on a confidential, privileged, and without prejudice basis and your information will be held and used as per your family’s direction.

Protecting Reserve Lands: Gates

The Lands Department held a Go-To-Meeting with Members on July 22nd to discuss having six (6) locked gates placed in certain areas for a time should we need to shut the reserve down. At the meeting it was suggested that the Lands Department host separate meetings for each of these potential sites. The Lands Department would like to engage with Members for the Single Creek Road, Green Mountain Road SW, Marron Valley Road, Old Airport Road, Green Mountain Road East and Westhills Drive. If you live near one of these locations, the Lands Department would like to hear from you at one of our upcoming meet- ings (yet to be determined). Please contact Joan Phillip, Land Manager at (250) 493-0048 ext. 217 or [email protected] to find out more about upcoming meetings.

Former Appleton Waste Site – Lot 210 Green Mountain Road, Penticton IR1 Appleton Waste Services Inc. (Appleton Inc.) Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) opened an unauthorized and informal waste disposal operation at lot 210, Green Mountain Road, Penticton Indian Reserve (IR) #1, in 2017. Shortly after they began operations, the Band began to receive complaints from the Mem- bership related to the environment and the health safety of the Appleton Inc. site. After making several attempts to have the Site cleaned up by Appleton Inc., in July of 2018, the interim Band Administrator for the Band contacted Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) to express concern over the Appleton Inc., opera- tions. ISC visited this waste site in July 2018, August 2018, and in February 2019 outlining several actions that needed to be taken as they site was unpermitted, however, very little was done to address the environ- mental and health risks associated with the Land. Most recently, the Band, ISC and the CP Holder have been working with a qualified environmental profes- sional on an Action Plan to have the land remediated and the waste removed. As part of these discus- sions, asbestos sampling occurred and no asbestos was detected. In addition, ISC has agreed to provide the Band with funding to engage a groundwater hydrogeological consultant to review the reports, conduct on-site monitoring and to do quarterly groundwater monitoring to ensure that the storage, sorting, and clean-up activities under the Action Plan do not contaminate the underlying groundwater. The Band continues to promote and advocate for the health and safety of its members and the protection of it lands and it is in the best interest of Members to have the Appleton Inc. site cleaned up. The Band does not currently have jurisdiction to apply Federal environmental laws; however, ISC has provided addi- tional funding to the Band to begin Member engagement on and draft an illegal waste bylaw and an envi- ronmental management plan, which will help ensure that issues like this do not happen in the future.

SUMMARY OF RCMP CALLS FOR SERVICE FOR: July 2020
