In the Pacific Region, wild stocks of salmonids are suffering from the impacts of mixed stock. harvesting practices; additionally, the increased exploitation necessary to harvest some enhanced stocks takes a further toll on weak.er, unenhanced stocks. If the natural production from wild salmonid stocks is to be preserved, fishery managers may have to consider harvesting stock. s, or portions of them, at or near the rivers to which these stocks return. To ensure an optimll!:l harvest of Pacific salmonids, resource managers need to be able to identify the locations where they can harvest individual stocks somewhat discretely, thereby avoiding or minimizing the impacts of mixed stock fisheries without foregoing a substantial loss of product quality, associated with the maturation process, which will be evident when fish are caught in terminal fisheries. This report presents preliminary salmon quality information which may need to be considered as prerequisite to the implementation of terminal fisheries. General criteria for grading salmon are presented for, and applied to, each of the five salmon species. The maturity of selected stocks at various locations has been described; pictures and maps graphically detail maturational characteristics and the areas where salmon undergo quality or grade changes, and tables list additional quality information for these, and other, stocks. Also discussed are other relevant factors which affect the quality of fish after they are caught; the incidence of parasites; and possible conflicts concerning the use of terminal fisheries. (The federal government's Quality Improvement Program has specific implications for terminal fisheries, and there may be extra fish inspection and conservation requirements if fisheries are held in rivers.) Additional programs are recommended to fill numerous information gaps, and some financial considerations of program implementation are presented. LIST OF TABLES iv. 1.

Salmon quality information contained in this report will assist managers to determine where terminal fisheries might be located in order to achieve stock separation, yet still obtain fish of marketable quality. BACKGROUND 1. The Department has a problem with mixed stock fisheries in which weak stocks may be overharvested as a result_ of heavy fishing pressure on strong stocks. There are numerous opportunities to reduce mixed stock harvest levels; for instance, a portion of the harvest can be taken at more terminal points so that the fleet's fishing effort can be focused more directly on specific stocks. 2. Terminal fisheries are being considered in the context of a Canada - U.S.A. Salmon Agreement to reduce interceptions which are now common in many fisheries. 3. The recently announced Quality Improvement Program suggests that the Department should consider directing the fishing effort away from terminal points to ensure a higher quality catch. However, this would involve fishing mixed stocks in a large number of situations. Therefore, an effort should be made to catch only a portion of fish in a mixed stock situation, where they are of very high quality, and the remainder of the harvestable surplus should be taken at more terminal points where there are fewer mixed stocks, but where the quality is still acceptable. Because there are markets for different quality products, Page 2 BACKGROUND (Continued) the resource can still be fully utilized if mixed stock and terminal fisheries are held. This action may assist in preventing over-fishing of weak stocks. 4. The Salmonid Enhancement Program, by adjusting its strategies in some areas, may be able to enhance all stocks migrating through a fishing area at the same time, thereby overcoming the mixed stock problem without overharvesting weak stocks or forgoing fish quality by harvesting in terminal fisheries. 5. The sale of Indian food fish

    Archaeological Investigations in the Takla Lake Region

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS IN THE TAKLA LAKE REGION John McMurdo INTRODUCTION In early spring, 1971, the Pacific Great Eastern Railway was approached by the Archaeology Department of Simon Fraser University, as construction had begun on a new railway linking Fort St. James and Dease Lake. The company was presented with plans for an extensive archaeological survey of the proposed route. It was explained that our purpose was to salvage any archaeological information that might be destroyed in the process of construction. While a grant from the Opportunities for Youth Programme would form part of the budget for this survey, the co-operation of P.G.E. was necessary, particularly in the field of transportation and 10 0 m and board, if the survey was to be successful. By May 15, 1971, P.G.E. had not only granted permission for the survey but had committed itself to providing transportation in the survey area and room and board for a crew of six. By June 15 however, the company had limited the crew size to two, and on the arrival of David Butlin and rcyself in the field on June 17, it was discovered that transportation and other facilities were limited to the area of Takla Lake. Although this area was found to have been extensively disturbed through clearing and bulldozing, a survey was initiated. The results of that survey form the basis of this report. An appendix has also been added which includes the results of discussions with some native residents of Takla Lake. THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT Takla Lake is approximately 50 miles long and two miles wide at its widest point.

    The Ethno-Genesis of the Mixed-Ancestry Population in New Caledonia Duane Thomson n British Columbia and elsewhere in Canada the question of which mixed-ancestry persons qualify for Métis status is a largely unresolved public policy issue. Whether this issue is eventually Idecided by legal decisions or by political accommodation, the historical background relating to British Columbia’s mixed-ancestry population is an important element in the discussion and requires detailed exploration. Historical research conducted for the Department of Justice forms the basis of this study of the ethno-genesis of the mixed-ancestry population of central British Columbia.1 To understand the parameters of this research, some background regarding the 2003 R. v. Powley decision in the Supreme Court of Canada is necessary. The Court ruled that Steve and Roddy Powley, two mixed-ancestry men from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, qualified for Métis status. They thus enjoyed a constitutionally protected right to hunt for food under s. 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982.2 In its decision, the Court also set out the criteria that succeeding mixed-ancestry applicants must meet to similarly qualify for Métis status. One important criterion was that Métis Aboriginal rights rest in the existence of a historic, self- 1 For a summary of some of these legal and political issues, see Jean Barman and Mike Evans, “Reflections on Being, and Becoming, Métis in British Columbia,” BC Studies 161 (Spring 2009): 59-91. New Caledonia is the region chosen by Barman and Evans in their attempt to show that a Métis community developed in British Columbia.

    The Role of Native Peoples in the Fur Trade

    OUTCOMES In this chapter, you will read about the role of the fur trade in the creation of the country of Canada. By the end of this chapter, you wilt •outline the role of the fur trade in Canada • understand that the fur trade is an example of economic imperialism •describe the function and duties of fur traders • use problem-solving strategies •identify factors that created conflicts in the fur trade ® describe the economics of the fur trade •evaluate the importance of rivers and other geographic elements to the spread and success of the Canadian fur trade * compare European and Native perspectives on the fur trade el MMMMMM Sixteen Years in the Indian Country: The Journal of Daniel Williams Harmon In the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, few people in eastern North America or Europe had any knowledge of the Inhabitants or geography of western North America. This was still a largely unknown territory. The first accounts of the west came from fur traders. In this window, you will read some of the entries in the journals of Daniel Williams Harmon, who was chief trader at the North West Company fur post at Fort St. fames in northcentral British Columbia (New Caledonia) between 1810 and 1816. Prior to this, Harmon had spent some time on the prairies, where he had married a Mitts woman named Elizabeth Duval. The couple had twelve children. Harmon's book, Sixteen Years in the Indian Country, describes life in New Caledonia. We can learn something about the lives of the Carrier and Sekani peoples, as well as about the lives of the fur traders.

    Teaching Through Toponymy: Using Indigenous Place-Names In Outdoor Science Camps Karen Ann Heikkila B.A., University of British Columbia, 1994 B.Ed., University of British Columbia, 1995 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of The Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Natural Resources and Environmental Studies (Geography) The University of Northern British Columbia January 2007 ©Karen Ann Heikkila, 2007 For All who teach and make known the Dakelh language and culture Abstract The naming of places, be they landforms, villages or cities, is a cultural phenomenon dating back to the earliest of times. Naming to identify and differentiate places seems to be as basic a need as assigning names to the persons and objects that make up one’s world. In the Tl’azt’en culture, where oral transmission was the means of passing down knowledge, people developed particular strategies for recalling information. Routes to hunting grounds or fishing holes, for instance, were memorized with the aid of place-names and through the narratives that illumined the named places. This study examines the potential of Dakelh place-names as a tool for educating Tl’azt’en children and youth about the Tl’azt’en ancestral past, the Dakelh language and places on the land that have sustained Tl’azt’enne for generations. The processes of colonization, resistance and cultural reclamation as observed in the naming and re-naming of places provides a theoretical framework from which to explore the potential of indigenous place-names to address issues of cultural revitalization and identity-strengthening. Such theory enables understanding of the importance of indigenous language and places on the land in sustaining cultural identity and forming the basis for appreciating oral tradition.
