We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home. -

By the Road: Fordism, Automobility, and Landscape Experience in the British Columbia Interior, 1920-1970 by Ben Bradley A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada December 2012 © Copyright by Ben Bradley, 2012 By the Road: Fordism, Automobility, and Landscape Experience in the British Columbia Interior, 1920-1970 Ben Bradley Abstract This dissertation examines how popular experiences of nature and history in the British Columbia Interior were structured by automobility – the system of objects, spaces, images, and practices that surrounded private automobiles and public roads. The Fordist state poured massive resources into the provincial road network during the period 1920 to 1970, and in the process created new possibilities for leisure and for profit. Motoring was a new, very modern way of experiencing BC, and also an important economic engine. Making the province’s highways and the landscapes that were visible alongside them look appealing to the motoring public became a matter of concern for many different parties. Boosters, businesses, and tourism promoters who stood to benefit from increased automobile travel often cultivated roadside attractions and lobbied the state to do the same. Starting in the early 1940s, the provincial government established numerous parks along the Interior highway network: the two examined here are Manning and Hamber parks. Beginning in the late 1950s it did the same with historical -

Cataloguing in Situ Protection of Genetic Resources for Major Commercial Forest Trees in British Columbia
Cataloguing in situ protection of genetic resources for major commercial forest trees in British Columbia a,* a b A. Hamann , S. N. Aitken , A. D. Yanchuk Extended manuscript, cite as: Conference Proceedings, Dynamics and Conservation of Genetic Diversity in Forest nd th Ecosystems, Strassbourg, December 2 to 5 , 2002. Forest Ecology and Management (special issue) 197: 295-305. _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract Loss of genetic diversity can be due to a variety of causes and might take place unnoticed even in widespread and frequent species. In situ reserves can be a very efficient method of protecting genetic diversity in tree species if they are sufficiently large to sustain adequate populations and spatially well distributed to protect populations adapted to a range of environmental conditions. We use a geographical information system (GIS) based approach to assess the level of in situ protection using forest inventory data. Recently revised maps of seed planning units used for management of genetic resources for 11 major commercial conifer species reflect geographic variation as observed in genetic tests. On this basis we investigate how well populations are represented in protected areas. Due to a systematic expansion of protected areas in the 1990s, it appears that conifer genetic resources are now well represented in protected areas. In this study we identify the remaining gaps for in situ protection and discuss implications for genetic resource management. Further, we evaluate protected areas for their importance with respect to gene conservation, and determine whether ground truthing is necessary to confirm that populations in protected areas are sufficiently large. Keywords: gene conservation, conifers, gap analysis, GIS, British Columbia _________________________________________________________________________________ ab1. -

Whom shall I meet now? (Anne Carson, 2000, p. 133) This report is the result of 24 months of hard work and cooperation from a remarkable group of people who in themselves model the very best of what the Shuswap Hut-to-Hut Trail and Waterway concept envisions. If every trail tells a story, and the richness of a trail is in the experiences it guides us to, then the journey of friendships, dreams, disappointments and rediscovery, of natural wonders, and fine people met along the way are the true measures of its value. To everyone who has contributed to this pilgrimage into the landscape – a journey reflected in this report with plenty of untraveled trail ahead – thank you. You are the local geniuses of landscape that -
