Information in the Guide is based upon data available at the time of publication. The Guide data is also in an Excel format and can be found by searching the DataBC catalogue at: http://www.data.gov.bc.ca. NOTE: While every reasonable effort is made to ensure the accuracy and validity of the information, we have been experiencing some technical challenges while updating the current database. Please contact us if you notice an error in your organization’s listing. We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we work towards resolving these challenges.

  • Coldwater Indian Band

    Coldwater Indian Band

    Appendix B.10 – Coldwater Indian Band I - Background Information The Coldwater Indian Band (Coldwater) is part of the Nlaka’pamux (pronounced “Ing-khla-kap-muh”) people, whose asserted traditional territory encompasses part of south central British Columbia (BC) from the northern United States to north of Kamloops. Coldwater holds three reserves situated near Merritt and/or the banks of the Coldwater River: Coldwater Indian Reserve no. 1 (1,838 hectares [ha]), Gwen Lake Indian Reserve no. 3 (17 ha) and Paul’s Basin Indian Reserve no. 2 (646 ha). Coldwater’s registered population is approximately 330 members living on Coldwater’s reserve lands, 54 members living on other reserves and 455 living off reserve for a total registered population of 840. Coldwater is part of what was historically called Cawa'xamux or Tcawa'xamux (“people of the creek"), or the Nicola section of the upper Nlaka’pamux peoples, originating from a number of Cawa'xamux village communities. The Nicola Athapaskan speaking people of this region (called by the Nlaka’pamux: Stuwixamux) lived in this vicinity during the early 19th century. Coldwater is a member of the Nicola Tribal Association which also includes: Siska Indian Band, Nicomen Indian Band, Shackan Indian Band, Nooaitch Indian Band, Cook’s Ferry Indian Band and Upper Nicola Band. Coldwater members historically spoke Nłeʔkepmxcín or the language of the Stuwixamux. The former is the language of the Nlaka’pamux people, which falls into the Interior Salish language group. Coldwater is a party to the Nlaka’pamux Nation’s Writ of Summons, which was filed in the BC Supreme Court on December 10, 2003, asserting Aboriginal title to a territory identified in the writ.

    LANGUAGE REVITALIZATION PROGRAM Con't... The Elders/Speakers: One of the most important activities taken on by the Language Team continues to be the audio and video taping of Elders/Speakers. In 2017, the following individuals have contributed to the audio and video recordings, as well as attending other cultural activities: • Coldwater – Larry and Ellen Antoine, Annie Major and Bernice Garcia; • Nooaitch – Arthur Sam and Esther Voght, and Amelia Washington; • Shackan – Jim Toodlican and Bert Seymour; • Cooks Ferry – Marie Anderson, Ross Albert, Dempsey Albert, Pearl Hewitt and Verna Miller; • Ashcroft – Leslie Edmonds; • Nicomen – Lorraine Spence; • Siska – Maurice Michell and Ina Dunstan; • Boston Bar – (teaching at Boston Bar School) Charon Spinks; and • Lytton – Wesley and Mary Williams. The Team has developed a “speaker of the Month” profile format and has done some additional interviews with Elders/Speakers. The intent is to interview other speakers who consent to the placing of their profiles on the CNA web site as well as in NLX Radio. CAN-8 Language Program Update: Between February and March of 2017, CAN-8 was launched in Ashcroft, Cooks Ferry, and Coldwater communities; while the remaining 5 Bands launched later in the spring. Each of the Participating Bands was sent a letter to Chief and Council and the Band Administrator to decide where their community wanted to place their six language computers. Some Bands wished to put the computers into schools, others in their Band Office and or Hall. 2017 CNA Annual Report 31 LANGUAGE

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This archaeology baseline report summarizes the results of the archaeological studies conducted for the proposed Ajax Project. This report is not an interim or final Heritage Inspection Permit report and is intended to be available to the public. As such, information is presented in this report in a manner consistent with the requirements for confidentiality of archaeological site data in the British Columbia Heritage Conservation Act (HCA; 1996).
