Information in the Guide is based upon data available at the time of publication. The Guide data is also in an Excel format and can be found by searching the DataBC catalogue at: http://www.data.gov.bc.ca. NOTE: While every reasonable effort is made to ensure the accuracy and validity of the information, we have been experiencing some technical challenges while updating the current database. Please contact us if you notice an error in your organization’s listing. We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we work towards resolving these challenges.

  • Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band
    Appendix B.27 – Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band I - Background Information Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band (Whispering Pines/Clinton) is a Secwepemc (pronounced “Shi- HUEP-muh” or “She-KWE-pem”) group. There is ethno-historical information that suggests that within the Secwepemc there was a notion of traditional territories among different Secwepemc communities/divisions, territories that were subject to the stewardship and control of those communities/divisions. Whispering Pines/Clinton is understood to correspond with the Fraser River Division. The Crown understands that the Whispering Pines/Clinton First Nation, High Bar First Nation, Esk’etemc First Nation, correspond with the Fraser River Division (who appeared to have absorbed the Canyon Division following the smallpox epidemic in the 1860s). Whispering Pines/Clinton has a registered population of 159, of which 52 live on reserve. The community is located in North Kamloops, British Columbia (BC), near Heffley Creek, which is approximately 65 kilometres (km) north of the confluence of the North and South Thompson Rivers. Whispering Pines/Clinton has three reserves: Clinton No. 1, Kelly Creek 3, and Whispering Pines 4. Whispering Pines/Clinton members historically spoke Secwepemctsín, the language of the Secwepemc people, and a portion of the community continues to speak the language today. In 1982, all 17 Secwepemc bands signed the Shuswap Declaration dedicated to the preservation and perpetuation of the Secwepemc language, culture, and history. This led to the formation of the Secwepemc Cultural Education Society in 1983, which has propelled forward efforts to provide public education and curriculum materials incorporating Secwepemc language and culture, including the Secwepemc Museum, and an Indigenous post-secondary education institute in Kamloops.

  • B.C. First Nations Pronunciation Guide
    A Guide to the Pronunciation of Indigenous Communities and Organizations in BC The Pronunciation Guide offered below is from the September 2018 Guide to Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia. Please note there may be some variation from this version due to periodic updates that have occurred since then. For changes, please email: [email protected]. This Guide contains aids to the pronunciation of communities and organizations listed in the Excel Database “Guide to Indigenous Organizations and Services in British Columbia” (Previously known as The Guide to Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia). The original Pronunciation Guide was created with input from First Nations and other Aboriginal organizations, as well as from the First Peoples’ Cultural Council. British Columbia has a vast wealth of First Nations languages and cultures. There are 7 distinct language families, completely unrelated to each other. Within these families there are 34 different First Nations languages and at least 93 different dialects (varieties) of those languages. Besides these 34 living languages, at least three languages which were spoken in British Columbia are now sleeping.1 All of these languages contain a rich inventory of sounds, many of which are not found in English. When preparing this Guide, we asked representatives to help us understand how to pronounce the traditional name of their community or organization. The pronunciation equivalents we have developed here are meant as an introductory guide. The final authority on a pronunciation rests with the community. We encourage you to gain a first-hand understanding of how a name is pronounced by speaking directly with, and being guided by, representatives from each community.
