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.

  • Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013
    Early Trail Building in the New Colony of British Columbia — John Hall’s Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013. A recent “find” of colonial correspondence in the British Columbia Archives tells a story about the construction of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails between 1862 and 1864 by pioneer settler John Hall. (In 1870 Hall pre-empted 160 acres of Crown Land on Indian Arm and became Belcarra’s first European settler.) The correspondence involves a veritable “who’s who” of people in the administration in the young ‘Colony of British Columbia’. This historic account serves to highlight one of the many challenges faced by our pioneers during the period of colonial settlement in British Columbia. Sir James Douglas When the Fraser River Gold Rush began in the spring of 1858, there were only about 250 to 300 Europeans living in the Fraser Valley. The gold rush brought on the order of 30,000 miners flocking to the area in the quest for riches, many of whom came north from the California gold fields. As a result, the British Colonial office declared a new Crown colony on the mainland called ‘British Columbia’ and appointed Sir James Douglas as the first Governor. (1) The colony was first proclaimed at Fort Langley on 19th November, 1858, but in early 1859 the capital was moved to the planned settlement called ‘New Westminster’, Sir James Douglas strategically located on the northern banks of the Fraser River.

NATRASONY, B.A. (Geography) Simon Fraser University, 2004 A PROJECT SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS (PLANNING) in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES School of Community & Regional Planning UBC We accept this project as conforming to the required standard ………………………………………………… ………………………………………………… THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA February 2009 © Shawn M. Natrasony, 2009 ABSTRACT The City of Burnaby continues to accommodate a significant amount of growth within a limited land base. The City’s long range plans call for an increasing amount of new development to be directed into four existing town centres of higher density. Lougheed Town Centre Mall is one site with increasing promise for intensification within Burnaby’s Lougheed Town Centre. This Masters Project undertakes the development of design guidelines with the aim of informing the future redevelopment of a successful suburban shopping mall into a mixed-use neighbourhood. It envisions transforming Lougheed Town Centre Mall from a mono-centric retail focus into a sustainable urban form that is more vibrant and attractive. It begins with a review of key literature within three themes: transit-oriented development, placemaking, and green infra- structure. Reference cases of mixed-use shopping mall redevelopment are investigated to illustrate precedents in the North American context. An urban analysis describes the existing context of the site.
