  • A Stylistic Analysis of the Petroglyphs of Gabriola
    VISIONS CAST ON STONE: A STYLISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE PETROGLYPHS OF GABRIOLA ISLAND, B.C. By AMANDA SHEA ADAMS BA. University of California, Berkeley, 2001 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of Anthropology and Sociology) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required'standards. THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA DECEMBER 2003 © AMANDA SHEA ADAMS Library Authorization In presenting this thesis in partial fulfillment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study.

Name of Author (please print) Date / • • Title of Thesis: *1//£/CA/£ C/)£7~" &'7~OA*/££-~ S4— Degree: /HA~ Year: sZcTb 3> \ ABSTRACT This study explores the stylistic variability and underlying cohesion of the petroglyphs sites located on Gabriola Island, British Columbia, a southern Gulf Island in the Gulf of Georgia region of the Northwest Coast (North America). I view the petroglyphs as an inter-related body of ancient imagery and deliberately move away from (historical and widespread) attempts at large regional syntheses of 'rock art' and towards a study of smaller and more precise proportion. In this thesis, I propose that the majority of petroglyphs located on Gabriola Island were made in a short period of time, perhaps over the course of a single life (if a single, prolific specialist were responsible for most of the imagery) or, at most, over the course of a few generations (maybe a family of trained carvers).

  • Nanaimo Harbour: Past, Present, and Future John Dunham Address To
    Nanaimo Harbour: Past, Present, and Future John Dunham Address to the Nanaimo Historical Society on May 23, 1967 Transcribed by Dalys Barney, Vancouver Island University Library June 9, 2017 [tape starts suddenly] Mr. Whalley Well, it gives me very great pleasure in introducing the speaker this evening. Because the speaker and myself were born within 20 miles of one another in England. So, that really is something. [laughter] Of course at different times. [laughter] But Mr. Dunham has done a lot of work on the, and he had a number of photographs of the harbour and his maps, which really most of us have examined. And I'm sure we're looking forward to a very instructive lecture this evening. I’d like to call on Mr. John Dunham. [applause] John Dunham Thank you very much Mr. Whalley. Mr. Chairman, ladies, and gentlemen, when I was asked to talk about Nanaimo harbour: past, present, and future, I had a few qualms. And these related back to when I first came to Canada, in that I used to think that nothing was old until it was at least two or three hundred years old. Then, as I, as we lived in Nanaimo a little more, I became aware of the fact that this area had started its own history within the last 100 or 110 years, and that these were things about which people were still talking, and not something gathering fungus, shall we say, in the archives in London, or something that was so old that all you could go by were records, and you couldn't really appreciate the truth in these records.

As the economic hub of central Vancouver Island, Nanaimo boasts both a vibrant business community and an exceptional quality of life.

The city is now a regional centre for health services, technology, retail, construction, manufacturing, education and government services. Nanaimo is a central transportation and distribution hub for Vancouver Island. Home to an excellent deep-sea port, this ocean-side city receives 4.6 million tons (2019) of cargo through its port facilities and deep-sea terminal at Duke Point each year. Air Canada offers direct flights to Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto from the Nanaimo Airport, an all-weather facility. Seaplanes and Helijet link downtown Nanaimo to downtown Vancouver in 20 minutes. BC Ferries provides vehicle and passenger service between Nanaimo and Vancouver as well as Richmond from two terminals located in Nanaimo.

  • Texada Goop Gabriola Letter
    E-mail January 25, 2010. From: Honourable Shirley Bond Minister of Transportation Province of British Columbia BOX 9055 STN PROV GOVT Victoria, B.C., V8W 9E2 184265 - Texada Gravel Dear Nicholas: Thank you for your e-mail of November 3, 2009, and attachments,regarding your continued concerns over the use of Texada gravel on Gabriola Island. Please accept my apologies for the lateness of this reply. You may be interested to know that Texada Gravel has also been used on other Gulf Island roads and my ministry has received positive feedback about the performance of this product from other areas. That said, I recognize that residents of Gabriola Island have concerns about the use of this material and in response my ministry has decided to limit the application of Texada gravel on Gabriola Island's roads. During the winter period, our local maintenance contractor, Emcon Services Ltd., will use a different material to fill potholes and will schedule grading during drier periods to address the conditions you note. If you have further questions about this matter, please don't hesitate to contact my ministry's local Operations Manager, Jim Symington. He can be reached by telephone at 250 751-7136 or by e-mail at [email protected], and would be pleased to assist you further. Thank you again for taking the time to write. Sincerely, Shirley Bond Minister Copy to: Jim Symington, Operations Manager Vancouver Island District My immediate response: E-mail January 25, 2010 Dear Minister I thank you for your reply but consider it a very inadequate response to my concerns as detailed below.

  • Five Easy Pieces on the Strait of Georgia – Reflections on the Historical Geography of the North Salish Sea
    FIVE EASY PIECES ON THE STRAIT OF GEORGIA – REFLECTIONS ON THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF THE NORTH SALISH SEA by HOWARD MACDONALD STEWART B.A., Simon Fraser University, 1975 M.Sc., York University, 1980 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2014 © Howard Macdonald Stewart, 2014 Abstract This study presents five parallel, interwoven histories of evolving relations between humans and the rest of nature around the Strait of Georgia or North Salish Sea between the 1850s and the 1980s. Together they comprise a complex but coherent portrait of Canada’s most heavily populated coastal zone. Home to about 10% of Canada’s contemporary population, the region defined by this inland sea has been greatly influenced by its relations with the Strait, which is itself the focus of a number of escalating struggles between stakeholders. This study was motivated by a conviction that understanding this region and the sea at the centre of it, the struggles and their stakeholders, requires understanding of at least these five key elements of the Strait’s modern history. Drawing on a range of archival and secondary sources, the study depicts the Strait in relation to human movement, the Strait as a locus for colonial dispossession of indigenous people, the Strait as a multi-faceted resource mine, the Strait as a valuable waste dump and the Strait as a place for recreation / re-creation. Each of these five dimensions of the Strait’s history was most prominent at a different point in the overall period considered and constantly changing relations among the five narratives are an important focus of the analysis.
