  • Is 'Sasamat' the Aboriginal Name for 'Burrard Inlet'?
    Is ‘Sasamat’ The Aboriginal Name For ‘Burrard Inlet’? Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, March 2012. One of the oldest place-names in the Lower Mainland is ‘Sasamat’. When exploring the outlet of Boca de Floridablanca in June 1791, the Spanish pilot José María Narváez met some aboriginals who told him their name for the upper portion of Burrard Inlet (Indian Arm) was ‘Sasamat’; likely derived from the Salishan word Tsaa-tsmat which means “cool place”. (1) Captain Dionisio Alcalá Galiano told Captain George Vancouver in 1792 that the aboriginals applied the name ‘Sasamat’ to Burrard Inlet and its North Arm, (2)(3) and on the Spanish map of 1802 Burrard Inlet and its North Arm was designated ‘Canal de Sasamat’. (2) However, Suttles (4) argues that no name has been recorded for Burrard Inlet as a whole: “It has long been supposed that the Native name for Burrard Inlet was ‘Sasamat’. This supposition is based on a statement in the account of the Spanish exploration of 1793 [sic 1792] by Dionisio Alcalá Galiano and Cayento Valdés in the ships Sutil and Mexicana published in Spain in 1802, a translation of which appears in Wagner. (5) The passage in the translation (p. 265) reads: “The North Arm [Indian Arm] of the channel [Burrard Inlet] which we called ‘Floridablanca’, and the natives name ‘Sasamat’, ends in a river...” The name ‘Canal de Sasamat’ also appears on a chart drawn after the voyage. However, Kendrick (6) discovered good reasons to infer that the 1802 publication was put together after the voyage and ‘contains distortions’.

    January 23, 2020 Mayor & Council City of Port Moody 100 Newport Drive Port Moody, BC V3H 5C3 VIA EMAIL: [email protected] Re: Public Hearing – Ioco Lands Official Community Plan Amendment – Removal of Special Study Area Designation Dear Mayor & Council: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the City of Port Moody’s OCP Amendment. I write today on behalf of Anmore Council. We understand that this proposal was brought forward at the Port Moody Regular Council meeting on October 8, 2019, when Port Moody Council received a report from Mayor Vagramov regarding the OCP amendments related to the Ioco Lands and the David Avenue Connector right-of-way and passed the following resolutions: THAT staff be directed to bring forward an Official Community Plan Amendment Bylaw to remove the Special Study Area Designation for the Ioco Area, and to restrict density in the Ioco Lands Area to the level permitted under the zoning currently in place; THAT staff be directed to remove the Right-of-Way commonly referred to as the David Avenue Connector, and to incorporate its land into Bert Flinn Park; The Village of Anmore provides no comment on the OCP amendment to restrict density within the Port Moody Ioco lands, as identified in the amendment submission. These density changes are wholly within the purview of Port Moody, and under the Local Government Act, Port Moody Council has every right to proceed with this change. The Village of Anmore has significant concerns regarding the removal of the David Avenue Connector from Port Moody’s OCP. The David Avenue Connector was designed to accommodate regional transportation growth in Port Moody, Anmore and Belcarra.
