    Vancouver Demographic Report – Victoria-Fraserview January 2019 The Vancouver Early Years Partnership (VEYP) and the Human Early Partnership (HELP) collaborated on a research project to produce detailed demographic profiles for all 21 Vancouver Neighbourhoods. These profiles have gathered the key data that we know about children and families in our city into one place. The intention of these profiles is to encourage thought, reflection, conversation and the desire to know more and do more. Our hope is that this information provides local planning tables, service providers, government, funders and others the data needed to work collaboratively to make changes that will improve the lives of children and their families. Thank you to Barry Forer, our lead researcher, and Pippa Rowcliffe from HELP; Peter Marriott from the City of Vancouver; Claire Gram and Lianne Carley from Vancouver Coastal Health for your advice and support! Finally, many thanks to the Ministry of Children and Family Development, Children First, for funding this project. Together we can make a difference for children!

  • Erasing Indigenous Indigeneity in Vancouver

    Erasing Indigenous Indigeneity in Vancouver

    Erasing Indigenous Indigeneity in Vancouver J EAN BARMAN1 anada has become increasingly urban. More and more people choose to live in cities and towns. Under a fifth did so in 1871, according to the first census to be held after Canada C 1867 1901 was formed in . The proportion surpassed a third by , was over half by 1951, and reached 80 percent by 2001.2 Urbanization has not benefited Canadians in equal measure. The most adversely affected have been indigenous peoples. Two reasons intersect: first, the reserves confining those deemed to be status Indians are scattered across the country, meaning lives are increasingly isolated from a fairly concentrated urban mainstream; and second, the handful of reserves in more densely populated areas early on became coveted by newcomers, who sought to wrest them away by licit or illicit means. The pressure became so great that in 1911 the federal government passed legislation making it possible to do so. This article focuses on the second of these two reasons. The city we know as Vancouver is a relatively late creation, originating in 1886 as the western terminus of the transcontinental rail line. Until then, Burrard Inlet, on whose south shore Vancouver sits, was home to a handful of newcomers alongside Squamish and Musqueam peoples who used the area’s resources for sustenance. A hundred and twenty years later, apart from the hidden-away Musqueam Reserve, that indigenous presence has disappeared. 1 This article originated as a paper presented to the Canadian Historical Association, May 2007. I am grateful to all those who commented on it and to Robert A.J.

  • Neighbourhood and Community in Interwar Vancouver: Residential Differentiation and Civic Voting Behaviour

    Neighbourhood and Community in Interwar Vancouver: Residential Differentiation and Civic Voting Behaviour

    Neighbourhood and Community in Interwar Vancouver: Residential Differentiation and Civic Voting Behaviour JEAN BARMAN For a quarter century after incorporation in i8865 Vancouver experi­ enced rapid growth. Its population approached 14,000 within five years, despite depression doubled over the next decade, and then almost quad­ rupled to surpass 100,000 by 1911. Concurrently, settlement pushed out from an enclave on Burrard Inlet westward along the water's edge, east as far as neighbouring Burnaby, and south to the two residential suburbs of South Vancouver and Point Grey. The inevitable concomitant was, as numerous historians have detailed, residential diversity.1 As new arrivals sought out suitable living arrangements, so they congregated in neighbour­ hoods reflecting their socio-economic status and possibly also their racial and ethnic background. By the time of the First World War Vancouver's 1 I am grateful to Bob McDonald and Pat Roy for their perceptive critiques of this essay.
