This thesis describes the development of a cross-cultural science curriculum on dzaxwan, using information gained from interviews with knowledgeable elders that have participated in the annual trips to work with dzaxwan and the rendering of t’łina (oolichan oil). Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Wisdom (TEKW) and Western Modern Science (WMS) concepts are woven into the creation of the dzaxwan curriculum. Lessons were pilot tested in the spring of 2009 with grade 6/7 students at the ‘Namgis First Nation band operated T’łisalagi’lakw School in Alert Bay, BC. Evaluative techniques showed that the students understood the TEKW of the people, a range of WMS concepts, and practiced mayaxala (respect for the people, the land and water, and the dzaxwan. iv Table

You are greatly missed. iii ABSTRACT This thesis examines how three unique, isolated maritime communities located off the coast of British Columbia, Canada have responded to significant obstacles. Over a century ago, disillusioned Finnish immigrants responded to the lethal conditions of the coal mines they laboured in by creating Sointula, a socialist utopia. The ‘Namgis First Nation in Alert Bay, a group of the Kwakwaka’wakw peoples, have recently developed a land-based fish farm, Kuterra, in response to an ocean-based fish farming industry that threatens the wild salmon they have survived on since time immemorial. Lasqueti Island residents have responded to exclusion from access to traditional power sources by implementing self-generating, renewable energy into their off-grid community.

  • Bear Viewing Tours
    Grizzly Bears in British Columbia Located 80kms north of Campbell River in British Columbia is a wild and remote area of the Pacific Northwest known as Knight Inlet. As the longest fjord on the B.C. coast, Knight Inlet offers visitors spectacular scenery and dramatic mountain peaks. Situated 60 kms from the mouth of Knight Inlet is a floating lodge of the same name. Tucked into Glendale Cove, Knight Inlet Lodge offers one of the few protected anchorages in the inlet. During your stay you will be able to enjoy several activities which all centre on the area’s fascinating wildlife. Bear viewing is the main attraction but, depending on the nature of your itinerary and how long you choose to stay, you can also expect to see a diverse range of birdlife and marine mammals, too. This is a unique, untouched area of Canada and guests always depart with fabulous wildlife memories. The lodge is open from mid May to mid October (closed 25 – 31 July) and the minimum stay is two nights, one in Campbell River and one at Knight Inlet, although we would recommend a stay of at least three nights in order to make the most of the activities. Your Financial Protection All monies paid by you for the air holiday package shown [or flights if appropriate] are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our ATOL number is ATOL 3145.

  • 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.
