    Tsleil-Waututh community members paddling Burrard Inlet, June 18, 2014. Copyright Tsleil-Waututh Nation, Photograph by Blake Evans, 2014. Indigenous History in Burnaby Resource Guide 6501 Deer Lake Ave, Burnaby, BC V5G 3T6 | 604-297-4565 | burnabyvillagemuseum.ca 2019-06-03 The Burnaby School District is thankful to work, play and learn on the traditional territories of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ and Sḵwxwú7mesẖ speaking people. As we inquire into learning more about the history of these lands, we are grateful to Burnaby Village Museum for working with our host First Nation communities. The knowledge being shared in this resource guide through our local communities supports the teaching and learning happening in our classrooms. It deepens our understanding of the history of our community and will increase our collective knowledge of our host First Nations communities’ history in Burnaby. In our schools, this guide will assist in creating place-based learning opportunities that will build pride for our Indigenous learners through the sharing of this local knowledge, but also increase understanding for our non-Indigenous learners. Through this guide, we can move closer to the Truth and Reconciliation’s Call to Action 63 (i and iii): 63. We call upon the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada to maintain an annual commitment to Indigenous education issues, including: i. Developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Indigenous peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools. iii. Building student capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. We would like extend thanks to Burnaby Village Museum staff for their time and efforts in creating this resource guide.

  • A GUIDE to Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia (December 2013)
    A GUIDE TO Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia (December 2013) A GUIDE TO Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia (December 2013) INTRODUCTORY NOTE A Guide to Aboriginal Organizations and Services in British Columbia is a provincial listing of First Nation, Métis and Aboriginal organizations, communities and community services. The Guide is dependent upon voluntary inclusion and is not a comprehensive listing of all Aboriginal organizations in B.C., nor is it able to offer links to all the services that an organization may offer or that may be of interest to Aboriginal people. Publication of the Guide is coordinated by the Intergovernmental and Community Relations Branch of the Ministry of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation (MARR), to support streamlined access to information about Aboriginal programs and services and to support relationship-building with Aboriginal people and their communities. 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. If there have been any changes to your organization’s contact information please send the details to: Intergovernmental and Community Relations Branch Ministry of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation PO Box 9100 Stn Prov.

  • Our First Nations Health Authority (Fall 2013)
    SHARING FIRST NATIONS HEALTH AND WELLNESS OUR FIRST NATIONS HEALTH AUTHORITY Digital Wellness Spirit of the Peace A Time to Cleanse FALL 2013 www.fnha.ca FNHCHave Your Diaries Say… WHAT DOES HAVING A NEW FIRST NATIONS HEALTH AUTHORITY MEAN TO YOU? “It means that the everyday person is thinking about their health, because of this transfer process. If it wasn’t for this, we would not be thinking about our or our neighbour’s health. The medicine makers in our world would not be able to share their knowledge of our own ways of being healthy, and it would have taken longer for our people to be more aware of our medicine.” Chief Brenda Lester, Samahquam First Nation “I have seen the wellness services provided to many generations. I want to use my skill, my love, and my culture to ensure that we break this cycle of depending on others for our survival. We are a strong vibrant people and adding my efforts in along with others brings my pride, my confidence, and my strength to a level that at one time felt could never be achieved. It feels good to be a part of a transition from the grass roots level and see success exists simply through the powerful yet simple task of speaking up and taking action as a whole and as one.” Crystal Disher, Lake Babine Nation “The Health Authority to me means a better understanding and better communication between the federal, the provincial and the Aboriginal people. As we bridge between the gaps our people will have greater flexibility and have a voice in the care and have our specific needs met more effectively.” Lily Ned, Upper Nicola Band “I think it is important and absolutely vital we have our First Nations Health Authority.
