Haida Gwaii Land Day Tour – Day 1-2 of Your Trip As a welcome to the Islands and a great way to see Graham Island, your first day is a land day tour. Your land day begins in the arrivals lounge of the Masset airport (see previous page), where you will be met by a guide. Typical highlights of the tour are listed below. Your guide on this tour is an excellent source of knowledge with great connections to the area. If he is aware of an event or sight that is very special, he may arrange to take you to it, which would alter the itinerary for your land day slightly, to accommodate a very special experience. You will then board your ship on the afternoon of Day 2, and we’ll explore Gwaii Haanas “Place of Wonder” for the remaining days. Typical Highlights of Land Day Itinerary*: • Masset • Old Masset’s poles • Naikoon Provincial Park including Tow Hill, Agate Beach and North Beach • Delkatla Wildlife Sanctuary • Tlell River • Balance Rock • Bill Reid’s Dogfish pole (Skidegate) • Kaay Llnagaay (Haida Heritage Centre), Skidegate • A local shop with Haida artists’ work Accommodations and Meals on Land Day: All meals are included. Accommodations will be in a lodge on Graham Island, and meals will be in eating establishments selected for their quality and their local character. You may wish to bring some money with you to purchase art, cards or other items at Kaay Llnagaay, the Haida Heritage Center. * We are providing a list of what typically may be included in your land day to help you with your planning and your expectations. However, please note that Haida Gwaii is not a predictable urban environment, and our plans may have to change based on services that alter their schedules (such as ferry sailings, opening hours), weather or other logistical surprises, or new and special opportunities that arise. Some of these become apparent in the winter before your trip, and some not until right before your trip. We always work to include the best experiences for you and we ask that you understand that travelling in such a special place as Haida Gwaii means a little bit of flexibility is required to accommodate the few or nonexistent services available. The flip side is that Haida Gwaii is a magical place to visit because of the very things that make it a challenge to operate in. .

    ENVIRONMENTAL POLITICS on HAIDA GWAII by Michael Dean A

    “WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO THE LAND, THEY ARE DOING TO US”: ENVIRONMENTAL POLITICS ON HAIDA GWAII by Michael Dean A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (VANCOUVER) October 2009 © Michael Dean ABSTRACT This paper discusses the development of Native environmental politics on Haida Gwaii, also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands, since the late 1970’s. During that time, concerns among the Haida about the impacts of industrial logging on their culture led to the emergence of a sustained, innovative challenge to the existing regime of resource extraction on the islands as well as the larger colonial structures on which it was premised. As a result, environmental activism became a means for the Haida to pursue decolonization outside the official channels of the land claims process. In particular this paper focuses on the conflict surrounding logging in the area of South Moresby Island culminating in the creation of the Gwaii Haanas National Park, which was the first National Park to be co-managed by the Government of Canada and an indigenous nation. By tracing the development of environmental activism on Haida Gwaii it contributes to an understanding of the ways that recent Native environmental movements have formulated indigenous identity and drawn on cultural traditions as well as their experience of colonialism. It also contributes to debates surrounding co-management and TEK by showing how the development of Haida environmental management structures occurred in conjunction with the development of a Haida environmental politics without which it would not have been capable of delivering on its liberatory promise.
