As we inquire into learning more about the history of these lands, we are grateful to Burnaby Village Museum for working with our host First Nation communities. The knowledge being shared in this resource guide through our local communities supports the teaching and learning happening in our classrooms. It deepens our understanding of the history of our community and will increase our collective knowledge of our host First Nations communities’ history in Burnaby. In our schools, this guide will assist in creating place-based learning opportunities that will build pride for our Indigenous learners through the sharing of this local knowledge, but also increase understanding for our non-Indigenous learners. Through this guide, we can move closer to the Truth and Reconciliation’s Call to Action 63 (i and iii): 63. We call upon the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada to maintain an annual commitment to Indigenous education issues, including: i. Developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Indigenous peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools. iii. Building student capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. We would like extend thanks to Burnaby Village Museum staff for their time and efforts in creating this resource guide.

  • Fee Creek Salmon Spawning Channel Riparian Restoration Project
    Fee Creek Spawning and Rearing Channel Re-Vegetation Project Fee Creek Salmon Spawning Channel Riparian Restoration Project Prepared for: University of Victoria Restoration of Natural Systems Diploma Program ER- 390 Selected Project Prepared by: Kathy Jenkins Student # - 0135005 February, 2008 Fee Creek Spawning and Rearing Channel Re-Vegetation Project ABSTRACT In 1991, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans created a spawning and rearing system beside the Birkenhead River to enhance habitat for Coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) salmon primarily. The stocks of salmon from the Fraser River salmon runs had been declining since the 1970’s and there were efforts undertaken around the province to change this pattern of decline. A fish hatchery was built near the Fee Creek spawning channel before this development. The channel was designed to help enhance the salmon population more naturally; through increasing important habitat and to use the area in coordination with the hatchery for increased hatchery success... The DFO created a series of ponds and riffles to provide both spawning and rearing habitat for salmon and the area has been maintained since and has provided a healthy habitat for salmon. Fee Creek is currently used not only for important reproduction habitat but also for educational purposes. As part of the Department of Fisheries Salmonids in the Classroom program children are brought to the area to learn about the life cycle of salmon and their importance in our ecosystems. The Fee Creek re- vegetation project was developed to restore an area of the system that had been destroyed by BC Hydro clearing during their routine power line protection.

  • Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013
    Early Trail Building in the New Colony of British Columbia — John Hall’s Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013. A recent “find” of colonial correspondence in the British Columbia Archives tells a story about the construction of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails between 1862 and 1864 by pioneer settler John Hall. (In 1870 Hall pre-empted 160 acres of Crown Land on Indian Arm and became Belcarra’s first European settler.) The correspondence involves a veritable “who’s who” of people in the administration in the young ‘Colony of British Columbia’. This historic account serves to highlight one of the many challenges faced by our pioneers during the period of colonial settlement in British Columbia. Sir James Douglas When the Fraser River Gold Rush began in the spring of 1858, there were only about 250 to 300 Europeans living in the Fraser Valley. The gold rush brought on the order of 30,000 miners flocking to the area in the quest for riches, many of whom came north from the California gold fields. As a result, the British Colonial office declared a new Crown colony on the mainland called ‘British Columbia’ and appointed Sir James Douglas as the first Governor. (1) The colony was first proclaimed at Fort Langley on 19th November, 1858, but in early 1859 the capital was moved to the planned settlement called ‘New Westminster’, Sir James Douglas strategically located on the northern banks of the Fraser River.
