  • National Aboriginal Awareness Week Booklet
    National Aboriginal Awareness Week 2016 May 19–22 Aboriginal Awareness This week of celebration is an opportunity for all Canadians, especially young people and educators, who have the opportunity to create a Shared Teachings/Learnings environment to learn more about Aboriginal cultural heritages of Canada. By sharing our knowledge and experience, there will be greater understanding and harmony among all Canadians. In recognition of the many aboriginal cultures and experiential difference that exist among the BC and Canadian aboriginals, the Shared Teachings/Learnings suggested in this booklet are intended to highlight Aboriginal peoples, events, places, issues and realities that are statement of knowledge about Aboriginal peoples’ cultures, values, beliefs, traditions, history and languages. Source(s) Shared Learning: Integrating BC Aboriginal Content K–10 Did you know? Did you know that some of BC’s towns or cities have names that come from aboriginal sources. Find out what the following names mean and from which language the words come from. Match the names with the description. Chilliwack The name comes from an Okanagan word meaning “the always place”, in the sense of a permanent dwelling place. Coquitlam Is the name of the local tribe, ch.ihl-KWAY-uhk. This word is generally interpreted to mean “going back up”. Kamloops Is likely from the Salish tribal name which is translated as “small red salmon”. The name refers to the sockeye salmon common to the area. Suggestion: Make up your own matching work list or create a word search, etc. Place names reveal Aboriginal peoples’ contributions: Place names are never just meaningless sounds.

  • Forging the Crown Jewel: the Creation of Stanley Park JANINE
    RZEPLINSKI Forging the Crown Jewel: The Creation of Stanley Park JANINE CARMEL RZEPLINSKI Stanley Park is a well-loved park just past the downtown core of Vancouver. Like all parks, Stanley Park had to be created by many people across generations. Stanley Park opened in 1888 after years of planning. During this planning stage, the government retroactively established provenance for the park and began unsettling its many residents. Over the decades, authorities relocated residents in the peninsula; removed skeletons from burial grounds; turned the park into a tinder-box through sloppy roadwork; and removed numerous flora and fauna to fit Stanley Park within a specific image of the Pacific Northwestern locale. Most recently, authorities placed freestanding poles from other nations in the park to manufacture an Indigenous presence that fit within a specific visage. Employing the research of local historians Sean Kheraj and Jean Barman among other academics, this paper will recount and analyse the development of Stanley Park. Particular attention is dedicated to the ways in which municipal and federal governments removed and remade Indigeneity in the park. It is clear through this research that the constructed nature of Stanley Park undermines the overall image presented to locals and tourists. Stanley Park, dubbed the city’s “Crown jewel,” has existed almost as long as the city of Vancouver and has become essential to the city’s identity. The park’s land spans one thousand acres on a peninsula near a harbour in the Burrard Inlet. Excluding the obviously developed areas, the peninsula is popularly seen and portrayed as a “virginal wilderness” within a metropolitan core to which residents and tourists can escape.

  • Brockton Pavilion Society – Lease Renewal
    Date: December 17, 2007 TO: Board Members – Vancouver Park Board FROM: General Manager – Parks and Recreation SUBJECT: Brockton Pavilion Society – Lease Renewal RECOMMENDATION A THAT the Brockton Pavilion Society be granted a five year lease from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2012 on similar conditions as their previous agreement and any changes which may be required by the Director of Legal Services and the Board. B. THAT no legal rights shall arise and no consents, permissions or licences are granted hereby and none shall arise or be granted hereafter unless and until all contemplated legal documentation has been executed and delivered to all parties. C. THAT once the form of the lease renewal has been approved by the General Manager and the Director of Legal Services for the City of Vancouver, that the General Manager be authorized to execute and deliver such documentation on behalf of the Board. BACKGROUND In the late 1800s Brockton Point was the hub of sports in the Lower Mainland and a major recreation focus for Vancouver. In 1892 a cricket field and pavilion was established at Brockton Point and 10 years later almost every major sports organization was represented at the athletics grounds. Although not the major area of sports activity that it was 100 years ago, Brockton Oval is still a popular location for cricket and rugby. Top-level cricket teams play here most evenings and weekends from May to September. Rugby is still the sport that dominates the Oval; international games have been staged here and Lower Mainland teams that use the field have competed successfully overseas against some of the best teams in the world.

  • History of Vancouver
    Intersection at Granville and Hastings Streets, early 1900s. HISTORY OF VANCOUVER Vancouver’s history as an urban centre got off to a snappy start in 1867. All that was here on the south shore of Burrard Inlet was the Hastings Sawmill and a couple of tiny native family groupings too small to call settlements. It was so quiet you could shout across the inlet and be heard by someone on the other side. Then, on the last day of September, a ruddy-faced and forever- talking saloon keeper from New Westminster, John Deighton (they called him “Gassy Jack”), came rowing around the heavily forested peninsula that loomed over the entrance to the inlet and aimed his rowboat straight for the mill. With him in the boat was his native wife, her mother and a cousin, a couple of sticks of furniture, an old yellow dog and a barrel of whiskey. The history of this area was about to change forever. The canny Deighton knew that the workers in the mill had nowhere nearby to get a drink. They either had to walk 8 Photo courtesy of City of Vancouver Archives the many miles through the forest (where they might meet a bear) to New Westminster, or row themselves there around the peninsula on a trip that would take the better part of a day. There was a larger mill on the other side of the inlet, with a tiny settlement around it, but it was run by the stern Sewell Moody, and he allowed no liquor of any kind. Deighton beached his tiny craft on the shore near the mill and approached the workmen.

  • Bats of Stanley Park
    Bats of Stanley Park BCIT Fish, Wildlife, and Recreation Program Erin Rutherford and Doug Sinclair 2009-2010 BATS OF STANLEY PARK BY ERIN RUTHERFORD DOUG SINCLAIR A REPORT SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DIPLOMA OF TECHNOLOGY In FISH, WILDLIFE AND RECREATION MANAGEMENT RENEWABLE RESOURCES TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF CONSTRUCTION AND THE ENVIRONMENT We accept this report as conforming to the required standard _______________________________________ Supervisor _______________________________________ Program Head BRITISH COLUMBIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY May 2010 ii Summary Bats are important and understudied animals in the ecosystems of British Columbia. The Lower Mainland of BC is known to support up to 10 bat species, yet little research on bats has been conducted in this region. The Bats of Stanley Park project was initiated by the Stanley Park Ecology Society in cooperation with the BCIT Fish, Wildlife and Recreation program to learn more about the bats of the Lower Mainland of BC and raise awareness on their role in the ecosystem. Surveys of bats and their habitat were carried out from summer of 2009 through the spring of 2010 to investigate the presence and distribution of bats in Stanley Park. Acoustic surveys using an ultrasonic bat detector examined bat activity distribution within the park spatially and seasonally. Bat activity was found to be concentrated around freshwater, with the highest levels of activity occurring in the spring and summer. Mist-net trapping was conducted to identify bat species using the park. During the project four bat species were confirmed in the park; the Yuma Myotis (Myotis yumanensis), the Little Brown Myotis (Myotis lucifugus), the Big Brown Bat (Eptesicus fuscus) and the Silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctivagans).
