Oral Narratives, Customary Laws ORAL NARRATIVES, CUSTOMARY LAWS AND INDIGENOUS WATER RIGHTS IN CANADA by Marlowe Gregory Sam M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE COLLEGE OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Interdisciplinary Studies) (Indigenous Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) September 2013 © Marlowe Gregory Sam, 2013 Abstract Prior to the European discovery and colonization of North America the Indigenous peoples managed their natural environment through a management regime that was guided by traditional governance systems that were based within the oral tradition. Since the assertion of European authority the water rights of indigenous peoples were subsequently diminished and infringed upon by colonial policies that derived from the doctrine of discovery. In the contemporary era the Supreme Court of Canada has determined that the priority water rights of Canada’s aboriginal peoples must be proven under the premise of European concepts of land ownership and entitlement. It is my intent to use the oral narratives of the Syilx (Okanagan) to provide evidence of the ancient customary laws and practices that guided the management practices over this natural resource. To substantiate the existence of the customary laws of indigenous peoples I use primary research gathered from Syilx (Okanagan) and Secwepemc (Shuswap) informants. Previously published and unpublished oral narratives that were recorded and transcribed during the twenty-first century will also be used in this inquiry. Prior to the arrival of Europeans a phenomenon of globalization greatly influenced the development of colonial policies and laws that in turn impacted modern day Supreme Court decisions in both the United States and Canada. An analysis of the manner in which the Supreme Court decisions infringed upon the human and aboriginal right to water will be used to determine both the weaknesses and strengths of the priority rights of water that have been held in perpetuity by aboriginal peoples within Indigenous North America. ii Table of Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................... ii Table of Contents ............................................................................................................... iii Abbreviations ..................................................................................................................... iv Glossary: Sylix and Secwepmc Terms ................................................................................ vi Acknowledgements .......................................................................................................... viii Dedication .......................................................................................................................... ix Chapter 1: Introduction ........................................................................................................1 Research interests, objectives and personal background .................................. 3 Methodology ..................................................................................................... 4 Chapter 2: Syilx History .......................................................................................................8 Chapter 3: Globalization ....................................................................................................24 Chapter 4: Marshall Trilogy, Case Law and Constitutional Law ......................................63 Chapter 5: United Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples ..............................113 Chapter 6: Oral Narratives and Customary Law ..............................................................145 Chapter 7: Water Rights of Indigenous Peoples ..............................................................197 Chapter 8: Conclusion......................................................................................................232 Bibliography ....................................................................................................................250 Appendices………………………………………………………………………………285 Appendix A: Syilx Creation story as told by Martin Louie and transcribed by Delphine Derrickson .............................................................285 iii Abbreviations Alberta Law Reform Institute ............................................................................................

  • Stehekin River Classification
    Stehekin Wild & Scenic River Eligibility Report FINAL DRAFT May 2002 Acknowledgments . The National Park Service gratefully acknowledges the support and assistance of the U.S. Forest Service Wenatchee and Okanogan National Forests – their assistance was critical in this report’s development. Special thanks also to the staff at the North Cascades National Park for helping to make the field work a very pleasant and informative experience. Executive Summary This study report evaluates the eligibility and classification of the Stehekin River watershed, located in the North Cascades Mountains of Washington State, as a component of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System (National System). This evaluation is done partially in settlement of a cause of action brought by the North Cascades Conservation Council1, but primarily as a Department of the Interior requirement for normal management planning processes. The Stehekin River and its tributaries constitute a comparatively small watershed. Most of the natural and cultural resources found in the watershed are dependent not just on the main stem of the Stehekin River, but also on its tributaries. There is also no clear demarcation between most resources throughout the watershed. For these reasons, it is appropriate to consider the entire Stehekin River system as a single unit for the purposes of this evaluation, with the exception of classifying segments of the river as described later. Under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (Act), the river must meet physical requirements (eligibility). These physical requirements are: 1) the river must be free-flowing; and 2) the river must have at least one resource important or unique to the region or nation.

  • “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.

  • Native Perspectives on Sustainability: Jeannette Armstrong (Syilx)
    NPS: Armstrong 1 Native Perspectives on Sustainability: Jeannette Armstrong (Syilx) Interviewee: Jeanette Armstrong Interviewer: David E. Hall Date: 10/21/07 Transcribed: Brianna Finney DH: Thank you for taking your time with us today. As you know from our other conversations this project is about sustainability from the perspective of indigenous leaders and our aim is to hear from you on the subject today. JA: Okay DH: To start can you just share a little bit about yourself in terms of your background, cultural heritage, and your work? JA: My name is Jeannette Armstrong. My Okanagan Syilx name means something like the light, rippling off of moving water. It’s an image name. I come from the Okanagan, but my mother is from Kettle Falls at the Columbia River. The Okanagan River is the most northern area that the salmon reach in their spawn. I come from a people that were people that respected and loved salmon on the way to the Columbia. DH: So you mentioned some of the geography and the area that you are connected with. How would you define your community in terms of geography and people? JA: We’re Salishan peoples of the interior plateau. There are quite a number of Salishan tribes in the interior Columbia River Basin area, and we’re simply one of them. One of the things about the Okanagan is that, the Okanagan Lake System of course is quite a large lake system, and empties into the Okanagan River and meets the Columbia River at Brewster, Washington. So my Nation, the Okanagan Nation, is actually larger than the Okanagan valley and it was simply a name attributed to us because I guess the population of people in the Okanagan Valley was significant.

KETTLE FALLS, A READER'S COMMENTARY ON A SITE ON THE COLUMBIA RIVER by Don Miles is a plea for consequent action during the next low-water period of the Columbia . }>ehind Grand Coulee Dam. This will probably take place in 1973. May -was a lost .. opportunity for archaeology since only the relic hunters and collectors came in numbers. Archaeologists visiting the site seem to have produced little; certainly no excavatiou of even a salvage nature was done. Being under the jurisdiction of -the Federal Government through the National Parks Division, Lake Roosevelt is out­ of•bounds for any but authorized persons to excavate. The status of surface collectors is unclear, but -usually in t he absence· of authority collectors tend to do as they please. The responsibility of investigating and reclaiming any archae­ ological material rests with the govenment or ·its agent. In the absence of any action the crisis between the professional and the amateur persists. The emergency nature of the 1973 exposure of old sites demands planning, action, and the coopera­ tion of professional and amateur in reclaiming as much as possible from important sites along the Upper Columbia.

  • Okanagan Water Systems: an Historical Retrospect of Control, Domination and Change
    OKANAGAN WATER SYSTEMS: AN HISTORICAL RETROSPECT OF CONTROL, DOMINATION AND CHANGE by MARLOWE SAM B.A., The University of British Columbia - Okanagan, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE COLLEGE OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Interdisciplinary Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) September 2008 © Marlowe Sam, 2008 Abstract In this study, I examine the history of colonial control, domination, and change that began in the Interior Plateau region of British Columbia in 1811 when interaction between the Syilx (Okanagan) and European explorers first occurred. I focus on water use practices in particular, employing an indigenous Syilx approach (En’owkinwixw) in order to display the negative impacts of colonial policies on the Syilx and their environment. The En’owkinwixw methodology, which calls for the incorporation of multiple perspectives, is thousands of years old, but has been modified here from its original consensus-based decision-making process. The manner in which the U.S. government developed resource and water management policies in America’s arid Far West directly influenced the models that were later adopted by British Columbia and Canada. U.S. Supreme Court decisions along with a number of international treaties and trade agreements between the United States and Canada have also compromised the ability of the Syilx to maintain a sustainable and harmonious relationship with their environment. Depression era policies in the United States led to the implementation of large-scale projects such as the damming of the Columbia River that had further negative consequences on the environment of the Interior Plateau.
