  • Lessons from Three BC Communities
    Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses: Lessons from Three BC Communities by Dyan Dunsmoor-Farley B.Mus., University of British Columbia, 1990 M.A., Athabasca University, 2013 A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Interdisciplinary Studies © Dyan Leigh Dunsmoor-Farley, 2020, University of Victoria All rights reserved. This dissertation may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or by other means, without the permission of the author. Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses Supervisory Committee Dr. James Lawson, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Pamela Shaw, Co-Supervisor, (Adjunct, Faculty of Geography) Dr. Warren Magnusson, Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Richard Rajala, Outside Member (Department of History) ii Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses Abstract The global economy infuses every aspect of our day to day lives, from the clothes we wear, to the food we eat, to our political choices. And with its ability to “mutate, shudder and shatter” (Dicken et al), the unpredictable ruptures associated with the global economy elude our ability to grasp its impact and to govern its activities. So how, as citizens, do we imagine governing ourselves when ‘nobody appears to be in charge any longer’? How does our understanding of the state apparatuses– the legislation, regulations, policies –speak to people’s day to day experience in their communities? This research addresses two broad questions: how are communities responding to externally generated ruptures and how do they govern themselves in response? I propose that responding coherently to rupture events is inhibited by community members’ lack of awareness of the complex interrelationships of the constituent elements of the economy, and secondarily, a tendency to see the state as the primary site of governance.

  • STONY LAKE History, Trails & Recreation
    STONY LAKE History, Trails & Recreation Stony Lake watercolour, by Euphemia McNaught, 1976 (view from the Stony Lake Ranger Station) The well preserved remains of the old bridge at Stony Lake Stony Lake today Stony Lake, popular for camping, fishing and hiking, lies southeast of Tumbler Ridge, fifty-five kilometers by road via the Boundary Road (Heritage Highway East). Its shores and surrounding area have been the scene of some of the most intriguing history in northeastern British Columbia, such as its first tourist resort and the discovery of natural gas in Canada. 2 Access to Stony Lake today is via a slightly rough road that leads for 1.6 kilometres from the Boundary Road (55 kilometres from Tumbler Ridge) to the Forest Recreation Site on the northeastern shore of the lake. Here there are a number of campsites and fire pits, and a simple boat launch area. Within this area would have stood trapper Emil Kruger’s old 1930s cabin, of which there is no trace. (Its location was under 100 metres east of the boat launch and in the tiny bay just east of the prominent knoll, so as to avoid the force of the prevailing westerly winds.) The lake remains popular for fishing, predominantly Northern Pike, although the prodigious catches of the late 1930s no longer occur. The long reach can make for large waves. Canoeing in an easterly direction along a narrower portion of the lake to the terminal beaver dam is more sheltered, with opportunities for wildlife and bird watching. There are tantalizing remains of the Monkman days, which make for a fascinating trip back into the past.

  • “The Re-Birth of a Nation” the Kelly Lake Cree Peoples the REBIRTH
    “The Re-Birth of a Nation” the Kelly Lake Cree Peoples THE REBIRTH OF A NATION THE KELLY LAKE CREE PEOPLES Marian Kwarakwante 1 “The Re-Birth of a Nation” the Kelly Lake Cree Peoples Throughout this background paper, I will use the Cree people as an example because that is the culture that I am a part of and I was fortunate to be raised with the traditional teachings of the Cree. Therefore my combined knowledge base comes both from the oral history of the elders who raised me as well as from my education. I do not however, purport to speak on behalf of the Kelly Lake Cree Nation or the Rocky Mountain Cree Tribe. Introduction In most First Nation communities, anonymity is the basis for preserving traditional knowledge of the land. For most part, historic records refer to First Nations people in the most marginal terms and many of the artefacts in Provincial museums today are inconsequentially referred and labelled such as “Plains Cree arrow” but does not identify to whom it may have belonged or particular tribes to which it may have come from. The purpose of this background paper is not only to outline on the surface history of Kelly Lake Cree peoples but also to find out who these people were. A genealogy was developed not only for the Kelly Lake Cree Nation land claim but also for the close relations and more distant association with aboriginal families could be studied. The requisites in providing a basis of terms under Section 35 of the Constitution Act the term First Nation and Indian references to what is defined as “Aboriginal”.

  • Monkman Pass Hiking Route Memorial Trail
    MONKMAN PASS MEMORIAL TRAIL HIKING ROUTE –1– The Monkman Pass Memorial Trail is dedicated to the pioneers that dared to follow a dream and take control over their own destiny . These people did not just live in the Peace Country , they created it . The Monkman Pass Memorial Trail Hiking Route is a new, unforget- table, class hiking destination that includes major waterfalls and rivers, lakes, temperate boreal forest, alpine meadows and optional alpine summits. The six day wilderness trail leads through magnificent, remote, untouched mountain terrain, suffused with inspiring, tangible history. The Monkman Pass Memorial Trail comprises a Driving Tour from Grande Prairie to Kinuseo Falls via Tumbler Ridge, and the Hiking Trail from Kinuseo Falls over the Rocky Mountains to Hobi’s Cabin on the Herrick River. The hiking trail is sixty-three kilometres long, and takes five to six days to complete. There are many possible side trips for the adventurous hiker that can make for an expedition of seven to ten days. For those seeking shorter trips, the return hike from Kinuseo Falls to the Cascades and Monkman Lake requires just three days. The trail lies mostly within Monkman Provincial Park and for the most part follows the old Monkman route over the Rockies. Once at Hobi’s Cabin on the Herrick River, it is necessary either to travel by river boat to Prince George, or to be ferried across the Herrick to a waiting ve- hicle. Alternatively, some hikers may wish to hike the trail from south to north and to be dropped off by boat at Hobi’s Cabin.
