Caroline and Andy Hickman of Gander’s Hatch Farm lost a beloved pet Saturday night after a veterinarian determined the animal could not recover from its injuries. A tenant of the Mount Maxwell area farm had discovered the grievously wounded animal in his pen along with his companion Maggie the mule, PHOTO BY JEN MACLELLAN who was unharmed.

You don’t see, you can only guess,” Hickman said. The B.C. Conservation Officer Service had planned to capture the cougar after a number of livestock kills were reported through February and March, but tracking efforts were not successful. Responding to a Driftwood request for an update on the situation on May 12, conservation officer Mark Kissinger said they had not had any new complaints for some time. The Hickman farm actually experienced a possible attack last week, when a lamb was pulled over the fence by its head — but they weren’t sure at the time what animal was involved. Hickman said the wounds and damage that Farley incurred left no doubt, however. Ted Akerman, who grew up tracking cougars with hounds, confirmed the source and also helped put Farley down after it was known he couldn’t be saved. Sadly, Farley should have had many years left to live as donkeys can reach 30 years of age. “He was young and he was healthy. We’d just done his feet and he was off in the fresh fields,” Hickman said. “We do everything we can to make their lives DRIFTWOOD FILE PHOTO BY JEN maCLELLAN happy and I feel I let him down.” Farley the donkey, seen at the Salt Spring Fall Fair in 2015, did not survive a cougar attack near Mount Max- No one from the conservation office was available for a response as of Drift- wood press time on Tuesday. well Saturday evening.

You are greatly missed. iii ABSTRACT This thesis examines how three unique, isolated maritime communities located off the coast of British Columbia, Canada have responded to significant obstacles. Over a century ago, disillusioned Finnish immigrants responded to the lethal conditions of the coal mines they laboured in by creating Sointula, a socialist utopia. The ‘Namgis First Nation in Alert Bay, a group of the Kwakwaka’wakw peoples, have recently developed a land-based fish farm, Kuterra, in response to an ocean-based fish farming industry that threatens the wild salmon they have survived on since time immemorial. Lasqueti Island residents have responded to exclusion from access to traditional power sources by implementing self-generating, renewable energy into their off-grid community.

  • Back-To-The-Land on the Gulf Islands and Cape Breton
    Making Place on the Canadian Periphery: Back-to-the-Land on the Gulf Islands and Cape Breton by Sharon Ann Weaver A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Sharon Ann Weaver, July 2013 ABSTRACT MAKING PLACE ON THE CANADIAN PERIPHERY: BACK-TO- THE-LAND ON THE GULF ISLANDS AND CAPE BRETON Sharon Ann Weaver Advisor: University of Guelph, 2013 Professor D. McCalla This thesis investigates the motivations, strategies and experiences of a movement that saw thousands of young and youngish people permanently relocate to the Canadian countryside during the 1970s. It focuses on two contrasting coasts, Denman, Hornby and Lasqueti Islands in the Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, and three small communities near Baddeck, Cape Breton. This is a work of oral history, based on interviews with over ninety people, all of whom had lived in their communities for more than thirty years. It asks what induced so many young people to abandon their expected life course and take on a completely new rural way of life at a time when large numbers were leaving the countryside in search of work in the cities. It then explores how location and the communities already established there affected the initial process of settlement. Although almost all back-to-the-landers were critical of the modern urban and industrial project; they discovered that they could not escape modern capitalist society. However, they were determined to control their relationship to the modern economic system with strategies for building with found materials, adopting older ways and technologies for their homes and working off-property as little as possible.
