Les missionnaires francophones ACADÉMIE STE-ANNE / ST-ANN’S ACADEMY Localité : Canada (C.-B.) - Kamloops Emplacement de la géocache : GPS coordonnées / Geocache location: GPS N 50° 32.351 W 120° 26.808 L’HISTOIRE DU LIEU VOUS CONDUIRA À DÉCOUVRIR UNE JOLIE VUE DE LA VILLE / THE PLACE’S HISTORY WILL LEAD YOU TO DISCOVER A NICE VIEW OF THE CITY. Parmi les francophones qui occupent une grande partie de l’histoire de Kamloops se trouvent les prêtres, les frères et les religieuses qui sont venus de la France ou de l’est du Canada. Le travail de quelques-uns les a rendus célèbres alors que d’autres n’avaient pour but que la glorification de Dieu. La première école située à Kamloops fut construite et exploitée par l'Église catholique romaine. Appelée Académie Sainte Anne, l'école a été construite en 1878 par le père Grandidier, premier prêtre à s’établir en permanence à Kamloops. Construite sur les terres à l'ouest de Kamloops, l’école est voisine de la Saint-Louis-Mission établie auparavant. Cette zone est maintenant connue sous le nom de Mission Flats. Sainte-Anne, l’école pour les filles, a été ouverte en 1880 avec trois enseignants et un élève. Le besoin d'une école pour les garçons a rendu nécessaire la construction d’une école supplémentaire en 1881, appelée collège Saint-Louis. Le site choisi pour ces écoles n’était pas un bon choix car sujet à des crues printanières. Le père Grandidier s’est également occupé de faire construire la première église de Kamloops. French missionaries Included among the francophones who make up a big part of Kamloops history were the priests, the brothers, and the nuns who arrived from France and Eastern Canada. Some of them were made famous by their work, others worked only for the glory of God. The first school located at Kamloops was built and operated by the Roman Catholic Church. Called St Ann’s Academy, the school was built by father Grandidier in 1878 by Father Grandidier, the first permanent priest to settle in Kamloops. Built on the flats west of Kamloops, the school is nearby the earlier established St. Louis Mission. This area is now known as Mission Flats. St. Ann, the school for girls, opened in 1880 with three teachers and one pupil. The need for a school for boys made it necessary to build an additional school in 1881, called St. Louis College. The site chosen for these schools was not a good one in that it was subject to spring floods. Father Grandidier aslo had the first church built in Kamloops. Les premières compagnies LES PREMIÈRES COMPAGNIES / THE FIRST COMPANIES LOCALITÉ : CANADA (C.-B.) - KAMLOOPS Emplacement de la géocache : GPS coordonnées / Geocache location: GPS N 50° 40.725 W 120° 20.473 Les premiers habitants de la région font partie de la tribu Secwepemc (autrefois Shuswap) de la nation Salish. Ils nomment la région Tk'emlups, ce qui signifierait « rencontre des eaux ». David Stuart, de la Pacific Fur Trading Company, y passe l'hiver de 1811 et est impressionné par le potentiel qu'offre la traite des fourrures. C’est à cette année-là que la Pacific Fur Trading Company s’est établie à Kamloops. En septembre 1812, il y construit le premier poste de traite, Fort She-whaps, premier établissement non autochtone du Sud de la Colombie-Britannique. Quelques mois plus tard, en novembre, la Compagnie Nord-Ouest érige le fort Thompson sur l'autre rive, tout près de celui de ses compétiteurs. L’officier en charge de l’établissement du poste était un canadien français, Joseph LaRocque*. Même si les deux compagnies étaient en compétition, les employés vivaient en paix grâce au grand nombre de fourrures disponibles. En 1813, la Pacific Fur Trading Company vend ses intérêts à la Compagnie Nord-Ouest puis en 1821, la Compagnie Nord-Ouest est avalée par la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson, qui s'approprie le fort Kamloops. Dans les années 1850, des chercheurs d'or arrivent. Kamloops devient alors le centre de ravitaillement de la région et c'est alors que commencent l'élevage de bétail et l'agriculture. L'achèvement du chemin de fer du Canadian Pacific Railwayen 1885 favorise l'essor de la ville et, en 1893, elle compte déjà 1000 habitants. *Né en 1786, Joseph LaRocque se joint à la Compagnie Nord-Ouest à l’âge de 15 ans, faisant de lui l’employé le plus jeune à avoir travaillé pour la Nord-Ouest. En 1821, LaRocque reçoit le titre de Trafiquant en chef et jusqu’en 1825 il travaille dans différentes régions de la province. Il prend sa retraite en 1825 mais en 1831 on le persuade de prendre le poste de Directeur de la région du Saint Laurent. Il partira en retraite réellement en 1833. The first companies The region's first inhabitants were members of the Secwepemc (formerly Shuswap) nation of the SALISH-speaking peoples, who named the area Tk'emlups, likely meaning "confluence". David Stuart of the Pacific Fur Trading Company spent the winter of 1811 in the area and was impressed with the fur-trading possibilities. It was this year that the Pacific Fur Trading Company established in Kamloops. He built the first trading post, Fort She-whaps, in September 1812, the first non-native settlement in southern BC. A few months later, in November, the North West Company erected the Fort Thompson on the other side of the bank, close to its competitors’. Joseph La Roque*, the officer in charge of the establishment, wasFrench Canadian. Although the two companies were in competition, employees lived in peace thanks to the large number of furs available. In 1813 the Pacific Fur Trading Company sold its interests to the North West Company and in 1821, the North West Company is swallowed by the Hudson’s BayCompany, whichtakes Fort Kamloops over. In the late 1850s gold seekers arrived and ranching and farming began; Kamloops became a general depot for the region. The completion of the CanadianPacific Railway in 1885 encouraged further development, and by 1893 Kamloops had a population of 1000. *Born in 1786, Joseph LaRocque joined the North West Company at the age of 15, making him the youngest employee to have worked at the North West. In 1821, LaRocque received the title of Chief Dealer and until 1825 he worked in different areas of the province. He retired in 1825 but in 1831 he was persuaded to take the role of Saint Laurent region Director. He actually retired in 1833.

The Club’s first hiking activity occurred on the Sunday following its first meeting (October 11, 1936), with prospective club members hiking from the Cenotaph on Battle Street to the McIntosh Memorial in the West End. Jack Gregson was elected as the club’s first president, and it would be formally incorporated under the Societies Act in March 1950. Early activities organized by the club included an annual alpine summer camp, banquets and picnics, a Winter Snoball Frolic (formal dance) and Christmas parties, and hiking and sporting activities for all seasons. The first clubhouse was located at an old farmhouse on Rose Hill, donated by Mr. Egli, which was improved by club members with the addition of eating and sleeping facilities and a stone fireplace. The clubhouse burnt down in 1941, but the enterprising group would come together to construct a new clubhouse further up the same field. After this clubhouse was also burnt down in 1961, a third location was established on land granted to the club by the Provincial Government on Heffley Lake in 1963.

  • 14. Other Potential Effects on Aboriginal Interests
    14. OTHER POTENTIAL EFFECTS ON ABORIGINAL INTERESTS 14.1 INTRODUCTION AND APPROACH This chapter addresses other interests identified by Aboriginal Groups with respect to economic, social, health, heritage, and environmental conditions that could the affected by the Ajax Project (Project), as well as other general concerns raised by Aboriginal Groups. For each Aboriginal Group this chapter assesses whether the Project is expected to have direct or indirect effects on their identified other interests, makes recommendations to avoid, mitigate or otherwise address adverse effects, and describes potential residual effects. The assessment of potential effects on current use of lands and resources for traditional purposes (CULRTP) is presented in Section 8.5. Results of that assessment have been incorporated in this chapter as relevant. The assessment of Aboriginal rights and title, including assessment of effects and mitigation measures are described in Chapter 13. Aboriginal Groups considered in the assessment include: • Stk’emlupsemc te Secwépemc Nation (SSN) which is comprised of the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc (TteS) and Skeetchestn Indian Band (SIB); • Ashcroft Indian Band (AIB); • Lower Nicola Indian Band (LNIB); • Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band (WP/CIB); and • Métis Nation British Columbia (MNBC). The section 11 Order (issued on January 11, 2012) identifies the SSN as the Project “First Nations” whom KGHM Ajax Mining Inc. (KAM) is required to consult regarding potential Project effects on their Aboriginal interests. In addition, the section 11 Order identifies LNIB and AIB as “Working Group First Nations” and directs KAM to provide information to them regarding the Project, specifically the Application/EIS. On July 23, 2015, the BC EAO issued a section 13 Order identifying WP/CIB as a “Notification First Nation” and directing KAM to provide information to the WP/CIB regarding the Project.
