Beaudoin Amiskwaciwâskahikan: Edmonton From Time Immemorial 2018 ASA Annual General Meeting and Conference LETTER OF WELCOME Welcome to Amiskwaciwâskahikan: Edmonton From Time Immemorial, the 2018 ASA Annual General Meeting and Conference. On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to personally welcome each of you to our conference featuring the deep history of what we now call Edmonton. This conference highlights a new and exciting time in archaeology in Canada and Alberta as we acknowledge the colonialist underpinnings of our chosen discipline and our society. Since the dissemination of the Truth and Reconciliation calls for action, our organization has aimed to bring more indigenous voices into the conversation regarding archaeology and heritage at this conference and into our future plans and endeavours. We hope that this is the start of many conversations and learning opportunities for our board and members. I would like to thank each one of you for your participation in these conversations and this conference. Throughout this conference I hope that you can stay engaged and help shape the future of archaeology in Alberta. We could not do what we do without the participation and engagement of interested people. All my thanks and gratitude go out to you. Sincerely, Amandah van Merlin; Chair of the 2018 ASA AGM and Conference VOLUNTEER THANK YOU It has been a pleasure, and a tremendous learning experience, serving as the president of the Archaeological Society of Alberta: Edmonton Centre for the last 6 years. Over that time, we’ve seen significant change in our organization. We have grown in membership and activity, built connections with new institutions and organizations, and undertaken, new, exciting, and ambitious projects. All of this has required the work of a dedicated volunteer executive, and dozens more volunteers and engaged members. The 2018 Archaeological Society of Alberta Conference is a great example of this. I would like to thank some specific individuals for their work. First, George Chalut deserves enormous credit for his role in maintaining the Strathcona Archaeological Society through the majority of the last 30 years. Without his dedication, the Edmonton Centre of the Archaeological Society of Alberta would almost certainly have ceased to exist. Kathy Gadd and Angela Green also deserve recognition for their long-term commitment to the roles of Secretary and Vice President, respectively. Over the last few years, several other dedicated volunteers have joined our executive. Though there are too many to list them all, Madeline Coleman, Amandah van Merlin, Christina Poletto, Jennifer Hallson and Alexandra Burchill deserve recognition for their ongoing work. I also want to acknowledge the contributions made by Evert Poor, who joined our board to help us in our efforts towards Truth & Reconciliation and engagement with indigenous communities. Every public talk, workshop, field trip, newsletter, or field project takes hours of planning, preparation and reporting. The events our members see are only the tip of an iceberg of effort. I hope that this conference marks the beginning of a new phase for the archaeology society in Edmonton, as we take on a larger role in the community. We have more big ideas and ambitious plans, and they’re going to take the efforts of many more volunteers and members, just like you. Thanks, Kurtis Blaikie-Birkigt; President, Archaeological Society of Alberta: Edmonton Centre, 2012-2018 2 Amiskwaciwâskahikan: Edmonton From Time Immemorial 2018 ASA Annual General Meeting and Conference SOCIAL EVENTS Thursday, April 26th 2018 6:00-9:00 PM AGM AND CONFERENCE WELCOME RECEPTION AND REGISTRATION LOCATION: THE PROVINCIAL KITCHEN & BAR 4211 106 ST NW, EDMONTON, AB Friday, April 27th 2018 6:00 PM PUBLIC LECTURE: ALBERTA’S ANCIENT MUD AND BLOOD AND THE PAST WE LIVE IN BY TODD KRISTENSEN RECEPTION WITH CASH BAR OPENS 6:0, LECTURE BEGINS AT 7:00 LOCATION: TELUS CENTRE, UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTA CAMPUS 111 ST 87 AVE NW, EDMONTON, AB 8:15 PM SOCIAL RECEPTION LOCATION: DEVANEY’S ON CAMPUS 11113 87 AVE NW, EDMONTON, AB Saturday, April 28th 2018 5:30 PM RECEPTION & BANQUET KEYNOTE ADDRESS: GLIMPSES OF EARLY EDMONTON: ARCHAEOLOGICAL DISCOVERIES AT THE ROSSDALE SITE, 1999-PRESENT BY NANCY SAXBERG LOCATION: THE LODGE SNOW VALLEY 13204 RAINBOW VALLEY ROAD Sunday, April 29th 2018 10:00 AM TOUR OF THE STRATHCONA SITE: FjPi-29 LOCATION: STRATHCONA SCIENCE PARK 8650 17 ST NW, STRATHCONA COUNTY MEET ON SITE, MORE DETAILS TBA Weather permitting 3 Amiskwaciwâskahikan: Edmonton From Time Immemorial 2018 ASA Annual General Meeting and Conference SCHEDULE: FRIDAY, APRIL 27th 8:30 Registration Opens 9:00 Opening Remarks Cabins and Coulees: Archaeological mysteries and historical myth surrounding 9:30-9:50 the Métis hivernant experience in the Cypress Hills Eric Tebby Lac én Long (Long Lake Settlement): Edmonton's Forgotten Métis Precursor 9:50-10:10 Dylan Reade Cultural Resource Management and Urban Planning – Examples from 10:10-10:30 Edmonton, Alberta Gareth Spicer 10:30-10:50 COFFEE BREAK Timing of post-glacial landscape stabilization and early human occupation in the 10:50-11:10 Oil Sands region, northeastern Alberta, Canada Robin Woywitka Exploring Palaeoenvironments in Mountainous Areas: Recovered Organics from a Receding Glacier 11:10-11:30 Diana Tirlea, Alwynne Beaudoin, Krista Williams, Richard Caners, Ashley Thorsen, Lisa Lumley, and Greg Horne Human - Landscape Dynamics in Northern Alberta during the Late Holocene: A 11:30-11:50 View from Sharkbite Lake Christina Poletto 11:50-1:00 LUNCH Results from the Brazeau Archaeological Project – 2015 and 2016 1:00-1:20 Madeline Coleman and Amandah van Merlin The Flood Mountain Research Project: Thoughts and Results from the 2017 1:20-1:40 season, aka What’s Up with Early Prehistoric Sites near Grande Cache?

Established in 2016, a 12-year collaborative effort worked to establish the biosphere reserve and achieve formal UNESCO designation. Subsequent efforts to grow the newly established biosphere reserve have accelerated in recent years. Our study documented how different types of knowledge were accessed, created, curated, and shared between partners during these two time periods. Focus group interviews were conducted with 14 participants, who are affiliated with Beaver Hills Biosphere Reserve partner organizations, and revealed the following findings: (1) not all knowledge is equally valued or understood; (2) partnerships are highly valued, and were essential to successful knowledge mobilization, but were stronger among individuals rather than organizations; (3) fear of the loss of autonomy and potential complications due to the establishment of a biosphere reserve slowed the exchange of information and engagement by some regional actors; and (4) knowledge mobilization is and was impeded by staff and agency capacity, finances, and time scarcity.
