  • Gulf Island Life Is Great, but Not Paradise When BC Ferries Officials
    Gulf Island life is great, but not paradise When BC Ferries officials come to Saturna Island on Tuesday, they'll find getting there is an expensive, time-consuming adventure Read more: http://www.vancouversun.com/Gulf+Island+life+great+paradise/7632323/story.html#ixzz2DpJrkqbL Hi there, members of the BC Coastal Ferries Consultation and Engagement panel. I am sorry to miss your visit to Saturna Island on Tuesday, Dec. 4 to "gather input on elements of the government's vision of connecting coastal communities in an affordable and efficient manner" as the notice in our Island Tides newspaper states. I will be taking five ferries - one way - for Christmas visits to family on the Sunshine Coast and Texada Island, if winter storms don't cancel the sailings. It will take another five ferries to get home to Saturna. That's right, 10 ferries. Our families live on the coast, all 27,000 kilometres of it. Ferry routes are our marine highways. Recent Vancouver Sun stories portray Gulf Islanders as elitists who choose to live here in paradise and therefore should pay higher ferry costs while people on the mainland argue over who should pay for their bridges. It's a great life, but it is not paradise, and it is not for everybody. The Sun's recent stories on BC Ferries assume that if a reporter talks to a shopkeeper on Salt Spring (about 10,000 people) that covers off Pender (about 2000) or Mayne, Galiano or Texada (1100 or so each) or Saturna (305 and dropping). Not so. While the lifestyle varies on each island, I have prepared some cautionary notes on Saturna.

  • Sedimentary Environments and Structure of the Cretaceous Rocks of Saturna and Tumbo Islands, British Columbia
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Charles David Sturdavant for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE (Name) (Degree) in GEOLOGY presented on June 2, 1975 (Major Department) (Date) Title: SEDIMENTARY ENVIRONMENTS AND STRUCTURE OF THE CRETACEOUS ROCKS OF SATURNA AND TUMBO ISLANDS, BRITISH COL T 1:11. A Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Keith F Oles Seven formations of the Upper Cretaceous Nanaimo Group sedimentary rocks are exposed on Saturna and Tumbo Islands.These formations are, from oldest to youngest, the Extension-Protection, Cedar District, DeCourcy, Northumberland, Geoffrey, Spray, and Gabriola.The rocks represent four successive cycles of deltaic sedimentation, the oldest and the youngest of which are incompletely exposed in the thesis area. A composite section of maximum thick- neis for the formations exposed on Saturna and Tumbo Islands is 9, 776 feet; however, the formations vary significantly in thickness along strike. The Extension-Protection Formation, consisting of conglomer- ates and lithic wackes, represents the upper part of a delta complex. The lower part of the cycle is not exposed in the thesis area.The conglomerates are interpreted as having been deposited in the bed load and point bar subenvironments of highly competent streams. The sandstones overlying the conglomerates are interpreted as marine topset sands. The Cedar District Formation, the lower part of the Cedar District-DeCourcy deltaic cycle, overlies the Extension-Protection Formation with an angular discordance of about 50.The Cedar Dis- trict Formation consists of repetitively interbedded and normally graded sandstones, siltstones, and mudstones, which were probably deposited as turbidites.The Cedar District strata are interpreted as delta-slope deposits.

Dunae, Department of History Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. John Lutz, Department of History Supervisor Dr. Eric W. Sager, Department of History Departmental Member Dr. Patrick A. Dunae, Department of History Departmental Member In the years between 1789 and 1792 the shores of what is now British Columbia were opened to European scrutiny by a series of mostly Spanish expeditions. As the coastline was charted and explored by agents of European empires, the Pacific Northwest captured the attention of Europe. In order to carry out these explorations the Spanish relied on what turned out to be an experiment in ‗gentle‘ imperialism that depended on the support of the indigenous ―colonized‖. This thesis examines how the Spanish envisioned their imperial space on the Northwest Coast and particularly how that space was shaped through the exploration of the Salish Sea.
