    North Vancouver MUSEUM & ARCHIVES SCHOOL PROGRAMS 2018/19 Squamish Community: Our People and Places Teacher’s Package Grade 3 - 5 [SQUAMISH COMMUNITY: OUR PEOPLE AND PLACES KIT] Introduction SQUAMISH COMMUNITY: OUR PEOPLE AND PLACES KIT features 12 archival photographs selected from the Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw: The Squamish Community: Our People and Places exhibit presented at the North Vancouver Museum & Archives in 2010. This exhibit was a collaborative project undertaken by the North Vancouver Museum & Archives and the Squamish Nation. These archival images were selected by the Squamish Elders and Language Authority to represent local landscapes, the community and the individual people within the Squamish Nation. The Squamish Elders and Language Authority also contributed to the exhibit labels which are included on the reverse of each picture. This Kit has been designed to complement BC’s Social Studies curriculum for grades 3 - 5, giving students the opportunity to explore themes related to First Nations cultures in the past and cultural First Nations activities today. Included within this Kit is a detailed teacher’s package that provides instructors with lesson plan activities that guide students in the analysis of archival photographs. The recommended activities encourage skills such as critical thinking and cooperative learning. Altogether, the lesson plan activities are estimated to take 1 hour and 45 minutes and can easily be stretched across several instructional days. Through photo analysis worksheets and activities, students will be introduced to the Squamish Nation and historical photographs. Teachers are encouraged to read through the program and adapt it to meet the learning abilities and individual needs of their students.

  • Beginning of a Sacred and Culturally Safe Healing Journey
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **TRIGGER WARNING** This news release contains information about Indian Residential Schools. Squamish, Musqueam and Tsleil-Waututh Nations Announce Investigation at Former St. Paul’s Indian Residential School Site Beginning of a sacred and culturally safe healing journey Coast Salish Territories | August 10, 2021 — Today, the Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) announced it has embarked on an Indigenous-led initiative, on behalf of its people and in partnership with its relatives, the xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam) and səl̓ilw̓ ətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, to find answers about the children who attended the former St. Paul’s Indian Residential School but never made it home. Over 2,000 Indigenous children, representing six generations of Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh, xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm, and səl̓ilw̓ ətaʔɬ Nations, and other Indigenous communities, were institutionalized at St. Paul’s from grades one through eight. Many of these same children were then forcibly relocated to Kamloops Indian Residential School, where the remains of at least 215 children were confirmed this May. Oral histories told by St. Paul’s survivors include stories about children who disappeared. According to public records, 12 unidentified students died while attending St. Paul’s between 1904 and 1913. The Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh Úxwumixw’s goal with the investigation of the former residential school site, located within Squamish unceded territory, is to find the location of each of these children and bring them home to rest. “It’s important to note that our People’s experiences with St. Paul’s Indian Residential School are well known and healing is needed to move forward. This work is being done to respect and address both known and unknown knowledge, and is a critical part of reconciliation,” says Khelsilem, spokesperson for the Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh Úxwumixw.

  • First Nations, Catholics Work at North Vancouver Residential School Site
    First Nations, Catholics work at North Vancouver residential school site NORTH VANCOUVER, British Columbia (CNS) — Three First Nations are working with the Archdiocese of Vancouver to look for remains of at least 12 students who attended the former St. Paul’s Indian Residential School. The investigation is complicated because it is roughly where the parking lot sits at St. Thomas Aquinas Regional Secondary School in North Vancouver. “Our intention here today is to begin a healing process for our survivors and for our people, for the survivors who attended St. Paul’s Indian Residential School, but also the intergenerational survivors who live with and have felt the effects of the residential school system,” said Squamish Nation spokesman Khelsilem, also known as Dustin Rivers. He announced Aug. 10 that the inquiry would begin in mid- August and would involve hearing personal accounts from survivors, collecting archival material about St. Paul’s, and a field search that could involve ground-penetrating radar or other technology. “We know based off of the current archival information that we have that there are a number of children that attended the school that did not make it home,” he said, “but most of the information is piecemeal.” A news release from the Squamish Nation said public records show 12 unidentified students died while at St. Paul’s between 1904 and 1913, but the location of their remains is unknown. Rivers said his hope is the investigation will bring to light truths about the residential school, which operated from 1899 to 1959, and the students who attended it.

Skinner, Advisor Christine Ballengee-Morris Danielle Fosler-Lussier Copyright by Margaret Helen Bissler 2014 Abstract This thesis examines moments of spatial, historical, and identity transformation through the performance of aboriginal community radio production in contemporary Vancouver, BC. It highlights points at which space is marked as indigenous and colonial through physical movement and through discourse. Beginning with a trip to record a public demonstration for later broadcast, this thesis follows the event in a public performance to question and unpack spatial, sonic, and historical references made by participants. The protest calls for present action while drawing upon past experiences of indigenous peoples locally and nationwide that affect the lived present and foreseeable future. This thesis also moves to position aboriginal community radio practice in a particular place and time, locating the discussion in unceded indigenous territory within the governmental forces of Canadian regulation at a single radio station.

CFRO is located in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside and its shows, mostly aired live from the studio, broadcast a marginalized voices.

  • Learning from Legends Section A) the Legend of Wountie a Long Time Ago, Even Before the Time of the fl Ood, the Cheakamus River Provided Food for the Squamish People
    Name: Learning From Legends Section A) The Legend of Wountie A long time ago, even before the time of the fl ood, the Cheakamus River provided food for the Squamish people. Each year, at the end of summer when the salmon came home to spawn, the people would cast their cedar root nets into the water and get enough fi sh for the winter to come. One day, a man came to fi sh for food for his family for the winter. He looked into the river and found that many fi sh were coming home this year. He said thanks to the spirit of the fi sh, for giving themselves as food for his family, and cast his net into the river and waited. In time, he drew his nets in and they were full of fi sh, enough for his family for the whole year. He packed these away into cedar bark baskets and prepared to go home. But he looked into the river, saw all those fi sh, and decided to cast his net again. He did so, and again it fi lled with fi sh, which he threw onto the shore. A third time, he cast his net into the water and waited. This time, when he pulled his net in, it was torn beyond repair by sticks, stumps and branches which fi lled the net. To his dismay, the fi sh on the shore and the fi sh in the cedar bark baskets were also sticks and branches. He had no fi sh and his nets were ruined.
