Distribu- tion is restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. However, no restriction is placed on subject matter, and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, namely, fisheries and aquatic sciences. Manuscript reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report is abstracted in Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts and indexed in the Department's annual index to scientific and technical publications. Numbers 1-900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Numbers 901-1425 were issued as Manuscript Reports of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Numbers 1426-1550 were issued as Department of Fisheries and the Environment, Fisheries and Marine Service Manuscript Reports. The current series name was changed with report number 1551 Manuscript reports are produced regionally but are numbered nationally. Requests for individual reports will be filled by the issuing establishment listed on the front cover and title page. Out-of-stock reports will be supplied for a fee by commercial agents.

Location of sites in the Strait of Georgia where information on unpublished maps have been compiled in this report. The bibliographic information was organized using D.F.O. Pacific Region Statistical Districts and Subdistricts. The following format was used to annotate or describe maps that have not been distributed through journal articles, numbered report series, or other media normally used in scientific communication. For the purposes of this bibliography, we have called these "unpublished" maps and annotated each of them as follows: a) Date on map: month and year when the map was drawn b) Date of field checking: month and year when field work or ground truthing was conducted c) Scale: map scale d) Author(s): person(s) who produced the map e) Habitat classification system: vegetation or organisms used to establish polygons or areas of similar characteristics f) Method of mapping: technique or procedures used to produce map g) Base map: if known h) Air photos used and date: B.C. Government photo abbreviations: BC - black and white photo BC(C) - colour photo at a time when black and white was still used BCC - colour photo Extent of the study area: includes 1) the boundaries of the mapped area, 2) the National Topographic System (NTS) map on which the area appears, and 3) the VIM (zone 10) coordinates for the northwest and southeast corner of the study area. j) Description: a short description of the map, including a description of the georeference system if used k) Accompanying Text: availability of a report in addition to map legend 1) Available at: organization or agency where the map may be obtained At the end of the compilation for each subdistrict, we have presented a list of reports and papers that include fish habitat maps pertinent to that particular subdistrict. We have called these "published maps" for the purposes of this bibliography. In most cases, critical information dealing with how the map was prepared (see points a to 1, above) is given in the particular report cited. Published maps that may be obtained at Maps-BC (B.C. Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks, Surveys and Resource Mapping Branch, Victoria, B.C.) are listed in Appendix A. Other published reports and databases indirectly related to fish habitat maps in the Strait of Georgia are given in electronic form on a 3.5" floppy diskette accompanying this report. The readme.txt file on this diskette gives information on the latter compilation. 3 New Westminster District 2 Squamish Subdistrict 28B Unpublished According to a memo in Hunter et al.

    The Kulleet Bay Mass Grave by Colleen Parsley A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) June 2018 © Colleen Parsley, 2018 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, a thesis/dissertation entitled: The Kulleet Bay Mass Grave submitted by Colleen Parsley in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology Examining Committee: Darlene Weston Supervisor Bruce Granville Miller Supervisory Committee Member n/a Supervisory Committee Member David Pokotylo Additional Examiner Abstract This bioarchaeological study was undertaken in partnership with Stz’uminus First Nation and draws on forensic and osteological methodologies for the analysis of 153,386 cremated human bones found buried together in a mass grave. Archaeological context is integrated with the bioarchaeological results to understand the various dimensions of a mass cremation grave discovered during 2004 sewer line excavations in the traditional ancient Stz’uminus village of Kulleet Bay. Analyses of the thermally altered skeletal bone indicate fleshed bodies were intensely cremated with sustained temperatures. Vertical gradation of temperature altered matrices were observed in the stratigraphic profile. Archaeological and osteological evidence point to an in situ cremation event of fleshed corpses who suffered a mass death, radiocarbon dated to 2407 cal BP. Skeletal pathologies consistent with poor health and also potentially related to disease processes are perhaps indirect evidence of the agent of mass death. No evidence of conflict or natural environmental disaster is present to support alternative causes.

Founded in 1670, the HBC was given exclusive rights to trade in Northern North America. Over the next century and a half, the Company expanded from its Hudson Bay beginnings, pushing west to the Pacific Ocean and including the coast from what is now British Columbia as far south as Northern California. However, in 1843, as a result of a dispute with the Americans, the HBC moved its main southwestern headquarters from Fort Vancouver on the Columbia River to Fort Victoria on Vancouver Island. In 1849 Vancouver Island became a colony of Great Britain and remained a separate colony until joined with British Columbia, on the mainland, to form one colony in 1866.

Pearlman, for the appellant Saanichton Marina Ltd. M.L. Mandell and S.A. Guenther, for the respondent In 1983 the province of British Columbia issued a licence of occupation to Saanichton Marina Ltd. for the purpose of constructing and operating a marina and breakwater in Saanichton Bay on the coast of Vancouver Island. The Tsawout Band, successors to the Saanich Indians, brought an action to stop the project on the grounds that it would be harmful to its right to fish which was recognized and guaranteed by the Saanich Treaty of 1852. The treaty was in the form of a deed by which the Hudson's Bay Company purported to purchase the aboriginal land rights of the Saanich Indians, but reserving to them the right to carry on their fisheries as formerly. The whole of the Bay was part of their traditional fishing grounds. At trial ([1987] 4 C.N.L.R. 48) a permanent injunction halting the project was granted against both the company and the Crown. The company and the Crown appealed. Held: Appeal dismissed. Permanent injunction against the Crown dissolved. 1. The 1852 agreement is a treaty within the meaning of s.88 of the Indian Act, R.S.C.

  • Crofton, BC, Canada | Red Seal Recruiting
    Crofton, BC http://www.croftonbc.com/ The active community of Crofton is situated on the calm waters of Osborne Bay in the Cowichan Valley, 22 minutes’ drive from Duncan. It is home to 2,500 people. The modern town of Crofton was founded in 1902 by Henry Croft, who owned a nearby copper in Mt. Sicker. He used the town to build a smelter, export his copper, and house his workers. The town prospered until world copper prices dropped, causing the closure of the mine in 1908. The miners struggled to find work in the logging and fishing industries until 1956, when a large pulp and paper mill was built on the outskirts of town, attracted by Crofton's deep-sea port. The mill is still in operation today. These days, this friendly forestry community offers quiet parks, comfortable accommodation and a host of family activities such as golfing, swimming, fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing. Close to Victoria and Nanaimo, Crofton is also is home to one of the ferries heading to Saltspring Island.
