As Indigenous populations work to revitalize their languages and cultures, many are reclaiming their traditional names. r The distribution of language families, or languages with a common ancestor, is quite varied across Canada. Languages from two I 1 families, Algonquian and Iroquoian, are traditionally found east of Lake Winnipeg. In the Prairies, there are speakers of Algonquian, Siouan, and Dene (Athapaskan/ Athabaskan/ Athabascan and Tlingit) languages, while speakers of Dene, Inuit and Algonquian languages inhabit the Subarctic. The province of British Columbia is linguistically highly diverse, with languages of the Salishan, Tsimshian, Wakashan, Dene (Athapaskan/ Athabaskan/ Athabascan and Tlingit) and Algonquian families spoken there as well as the isolates Haida/Xaad Kil and Kutenai/Ktunaxa. Related languages are found in other regions. Algonquian, Iroquoian, Dene, Siouan and Salishan languages are also spoken in the United States; and languages that are closely related to Inuit are spoken in the United States, as well as in Siberia and Greenland. The Dene languages are thought to be related to the Yeniseian languages of Siberia. \.

Indigenous understandings of territory are based The intent of this map is to provide a more accurate representation on worldviews that are both complex and culturally specific, of First Nations in British Columbia. Boundaries shown are language areas and not an authoritative depiction of traditional territories. and represent a variety of multi-faceted relationships and The names listed are the ones First Peoples prefer to call themselves. ancestral connections to place since time immemorial... Terms and spellings do not reflect all dialects or names used by First Nations living within the illustrated regions. Treaties, Land Claims and Reserves During the 19th century, Indigenous people were moved off their land and onto reserves, which represented only a portion of their original territory. These reserves were allocated through the establishment of treaties and through the Indian Reserve Commission. Today, federally recognized First Nations live on and operate their own governments on reserves. However, First Nations have traditional territories beyond reserves. For First Nations that have signed treaties, the government defines these territories based on treaty boundary lines. For First Nations that have not signed treaties, the definition of traditional territory may arise from ongoing treaty negotiation processes or other interactions with the Canadian government and legal system .. There are also indigenous nations in Canada that are not federally recognized, but that have traditional territories. For example, the Qalipu Mi'kmaq are recognized, but not connected to a reserve. In addition, Metis and Non-Status Indians live across Canada, with connections to various traditional territories. A 2016 Supreme Court decision recognized that Metis and Non-Status Indians are under the jurisdiction of the federal government, which has implications for recognition of rights to traditional territory.

    1 KWAKIUTL BAND COUNCIL PO Box 1440 Port Hardy BC Phone (250) 949-6012 Fax (250) 949-6066 February 5, 2007 Att: Mr. Rich Coleman, RE: GOVERNMENT APPROVAL FOR WESTERN FOREST PRODUCTS LAND TRANSFER AND INFRINGEMENT OF THE KWAKIUTL FIRST NATION DOUGLAS TREATIES AND TRADITIONAL TERRITORY We learned of the BC Government’s approval of Western Forest Product’s application to remove private lands from its Tree Farm License via news broadcasts. Our relationship, or lack of it, with Western Forest Products and the Ministry of Forests and Range is indicative of the refusal to openly discuss the application and especially when the Kwakiutl First Nation Council met with them on October 4th and 18th of 2006 (contrary to what we stated at these two meetings that this was not consultation nor accommodation). Western Forest Products historically has been blatantly allowed to disregard their obligations by your “watchdogs” to notify First Nation communities of their harvesting plans. These plans have, and always will have, the end result of infringement on our Treaty and Aboriginal rights and title as it exists for our traditional territory. This situation is further exacerbated by non-notification from your office of the recommendation to approve Western Forest Product’s application. It should be obvious to your ministry that there is the obligation to meaningfully consult and accommodate with First Nations and that message should have been strongly stressed to Western Forest Products. Western Forest Products has touted that it has good relationships with First Nations communities on its website but when we look at our relationship with them, the Kwakiutl First Nation must protest that Western Forest Products and Ministry of Forests and Range do not entirely follow legislated protocol.

  • “Viewpoints” on Reconciliation: Indigenous Perspectives for Post-Secondary Education in the Southern Interior of Bc
    “VIEWPOINTS” ON RECONCILIATION: INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVES FOR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN INTERIOR OF BC 2020 Project Synopsis By Christopher Horsethief, PhD, Dallas Good Water, MA, Harron Hall, BA, Jessica Morin, MA, Michele Morin, BSW, Roy Pogorzelski, MA September 1, 2020 Research Funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Executive Summary This research project synopsis presents diverse Indigenous community perspectives regarding the efforts needed to enable systemic change toward reconciliation within a public post-secondary educational institution in the Southern Interior of British Columbia. The main research question for this project was “How does a community college respectfully engage in reconciliation through education with the First Nations and Métis communities in the traditional territories in which it operates?” This research was realized by a team of six Indigenous researchers, representing distinct Indigenous groups within the region. It offers Indigenous perspectives, insights, and recommendations that can help guide post-secondary education toward systemic change. This research project was Indigenous led within an Indigenous research paradigm and done in collaboration with multiple communities throughout the Southern Interior region of British Columbia. Keywords: Indigenous-led research, Indigenous research methodologies, truth and reconciliation, Indigenous education, decolonization, systemic change, public post- secondary education in BC, Southern Interior of BC ii Acknowledgements This research was made possible through funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada. The important contributions from the Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Syilx, and Métis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, youth, men, and women within this project are essential to restoring important aspects of education that have been largely omitted from the public education system.

This letter reports the findings of an archaeological overview assessment (AOA) and Preliminary Field Reconnaissance (PFR) of the proposed City of Trail Cambridge Creek Reservoir and Violin Lake Dam Decommissioning. The AOA and PFR were conducted at the request of Robin Annschild of Wetland Restoration Consulting on behalf of the City of Trail. The proposed dam decommissioning project is approximately 4 km south of Trail, BC and centers on Cambridge Creek Reservoir, located at the headwaters of Cambridge Creek, and the adjacent Violin Lake Reservoir, located at the headwaters of Goodeve Creek (Figure 1). The objectives of the AOA are to: •! Identify and evaluate any areas of archaeological potential within the subject exploration area that warrant detailed archaeological investigation; •! Provide recommendations regarding the need and appropriate scope of further archaeological studies. Archaeological sites can be defined as physical evidence of past human use of an area that, in the subject region, is typically represented by artifacts, lithic debitage (by-products of stone tool production), faunal remains, fire altered rock, hearth/fire pit features, and habitation and subsistence features. Project Background As outlined by Biebighauser and Annschild (2020), the Cambridge Creek and the Violin Lake Dams were originally constructed as part of a drinking water reservoir system for the City of Trail that operated from 1919 -1994.
