Tel.: +1 306 690 0573. E-mail address: [email protected] (S. Rayne). Management of groundwater quantity and quality is an important resource development issue in Canada [1]. Overuse and/or contamination of groundwater supplies has the potential to restrict future use of this resource [2]. In the western Canadian coastal province of British Columbia, increasing attention is being paid to the scientific and legislative/regulatory aspects of surface and groundwaters. Aquifer types in the province have been classified [3] and various investigations have employed case-study type approaches to determine the status of groundwater resources, developed rigorous quantitative models of representative aquifers with predictive capacity, and attempted to assess future changes due to natural and/or anthropogenic forcings (see, e.g., ref. [4-16] and references therein). In our previous work, we examined temporal trends in groundwater monitoring wells for the western Canada prairie province of Saskatchewan [17]. We found that groundwater resources in this region generally appear to be increasing over time and do not appear to be under current threat from depletion. As part of the current study, we have conducted a similar investigation on time trends for groundwater monitoring well levels in British Columbia.

  • COAST SALISH SENSES of PLACE: Dwelling, Meaning, Power, Property and Territory in the Coast Salish World

    COAST SALISH SENSES of PLACE: Dwelling, Meaning, Power, Property and Territory in the Coast Salish World

    COAST SALISH SENSES OF PLACE: Dwelling, Meaning, Power, Property and Territory in the Coast Salish World by BRIAN DAVID THOM Department of Anthropology, McGill University, Montréal March, 2005 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Brian Thom, 2005 Abstract This study addresses the question of the nature of indigenous people's connection to the land, and the implications of this for articulating these connections in legal arenas where questions of Aboriginal title and land claims are at issue. The idea of 'place' is developed, based in a phenomenology of dwelling which takes profound attachments to home places as shaping and being shaped by ontological orientation and social organization. In this theory of the 'senses of place', the author emphasizes the relationships between meaning and power experienced and embodied in place, and the social systems of property and territory that forms indigenous land tenure systems. To explore this theoretical notion of senses of place, the study develops a detailed ethnography of a Coast Salish Aboriginal community on southeast Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Through this ethnography of dwelling, the ways in which places become richly imbued with meanings and how they shape social organization and generate social action are examined. Narratives with Coast Salish community members, set in a broad context of discussing land claims, provide context for understanding senses of place imbued with ancestors, myth, spirit, power, language, history, property, territory and boundaries. The author concludes in arguing that by attending to a theorized understanding of highly local senses of place, nuanced conceptions of indigenous relationships to land which appreciate indigenous relations to land in their own terms can be articulated.
