Hul'qumi'num Peoples in the Gulf Islands Hul’qumi’num Peoples in the Gulf Islands: Re-Storying the Coast Salish Landscape by Ursula Abramczyk BA Anthropology, University of Guelph, 2012 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology Ursula Abramczyk, 2017 University of Victoria All rights reserved.

Collaborative research undertaken with the Hul’qumi’num-Gulf Islands National Park Reserve Committee is part of a long-term and practical effort to regain authorship over Central Coast Salish cultures, languages and history. In particular, this thesis seeks to challenge popular and public narratives which do not recognize Hul’qumi’num peoples’ territories and territorialities in the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve (GINPR). By tracing the processes of narrative and historical production, and with attention to how power imbues these processes (Trouillot 1995), I argue that the narrative of ephemerality whereby Hul’qumi’num peoples are thought to have “floated by” the southern Gulf Islands, but never “settling” there, emerged largely through early colonial processes and Indian land policy which reconfigured Central Coast Salish territorialities. These assumptions have been reproduced in a regional anthropological “seasonal rounds” narrative and through the language of “villages” and “seasonal camps.” Through the period of comprehensive land claims, this narrative has been reified by framing the southern Gulf Islands as the exclusive territory of First Nations’ neighbouring the Hul’qumi’num. Narratives of ephemerality and exclusivity continue to dominate the public imaginary through their reproduction in GINPR interpretive materials and in the grey literature of consulting archaeologists. These narratives are not neutral, but have implications for rights and title recognition and accommodation by the state. The perspectives of Hul’qumi’num peoples help to understand the silence in the dominant narratives by elucidating the historic and ongoing significance of specific locales in the southern Gulf Islands for Hul’qumi’num individuals, families and communities, as well as the transformative processes effecting territorial dispossession in the post-European contact period. iv Table of Contents

The W̱SÁNEĆ way of life has been passed on to each succeeding generation through an educational way, centered in large part on the W̱SÁNEĆ Reef Net Fishery. This fishing practice formed the backbone of W̱SÁNEĆ culture and society. Despite being protected by the Douglas Treaty of 1852, over the next 163 years of colonization, the knowledge, ceremony, practice, and educational way of the SX̱OLE (Reef Net) was nearly lost.

Today is October 30th, 2020, and I will be interviewing Leonard Forsman, the Chairman of the Suquamish Tribe. My name is Alison DeRiemer, and this interview is being conducted remotely over Zoom. So, Leonard, welcome, and thank you so much for agreeing to be interviewed today. We really appreciate it. I’d just like to start, please, by getting your full name, and where and when you were born. Leonard Forsman: [0:30] Okay. My full name is Leonard Andrew Forsman, and I was born January 25, 1962 in Bremerton, Washington. Alison: [0:41] Okay, great. Can you also tell me your current location where you are today? Leonard: [0:47] I am in Suquamish, Washington, on the Port Madison Indian Reservation. Alison: [0:51] Okay. Great. Could you tell me a little bit about what you know about your Nordic ancestors, even if it’s not a lot. If you know any names, where they might have come from, where they immigrated to—if you know any of that information. Leonard: [1:10] Okay. Well, my paternal grandfather… My father was James William Forsman. His father was Alexander Forsman, who immigrated from Sweden. I don’t know a whole lot about his past, other than I believe the census records show him kind of coming via the Midwest, I believe Indiana, or something like that.

  • Gulf Island Life Is Great, but Not Paradise When BC Ferries Officials
    Gulf Island life is great, but not paradise When BC Ferries officials come to Saturna Island on Tuesday, they'll find getting there is an expensive, time-consuming adventure Read more: http://www.vancouversun.com/Gulf+Island+life+great+paradise/7632323/story.html#ixzz2DpJrkqbL Hi there, members of the BC Coastal Ferries Consultation and Engagement panel. I am sorry to miss your visit to Saturna Island on Tuesday, Dec. 4 to "gather input on elements of the government's vision of connecting coastal communities in an affordable and efficient manner" as the notice in our Island Tides newspaper states. I will be taking five ferries - one way - for Christmas visits to family on the Sunshine Coast and Texada Island, if winter storms don't cancel the sailings. It will take another five ferries to get home to Saturna. That's right, 10 ferries. Our families live on the coast, all 27,000 kilometres of it. Ferry routes are our marine highways. Recent Vancouver Sun stories portray Gulf Islanders as elitists who choose to live here in paradise and therefore should pay higher ferry costs while people on the mainland argue over who should pay for their bridges. It's a great life, but it is not paradise, and it is not for everybody. The Sun's recent stories on BC Ferries assume that if a reporter talks to a shopkeeper on Salt Spring (about 10,000 people) that covers off Pender (about 2000) or Mayne, Galiano or Texada (1100 or so each) or Saturna (305 and dropping). Not so. While the lifestyle varies on each island, I have prepared some cautionary notes on Saturna.

  • Battlefields & Treaties
    welcome to Indian Country Take a moment, and look up from where you are right now. If you are gazing across the waters of Puget Sound, realize that Indian peoples thrived all along her shoreline in intimate balance with the natural world, long before Europeans arrived here. If Mount Rainier stands in your view, realize that Indian peoples named it “Tahoma,” long before it was “discovered” by white explorers. Every mountain that you see on the horizon, every stand of forest, every lake and river, every desert vista in eastern Washington, all of these beautiful places are part of our Indian heritage, and carry the songs of our ancestors in the wind. As we have always known, all of Washington State is Indian Country. To get a sense of our connection to these lands, you need only to look at a map of Washington. Over 75 rivers, 13 counties, and hundreds of cities and towns all bear traditional Indian names – Seattle, Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane among them. Indian peoples guided Lewis and Clark to the Pacifi c, and pointed them safely back to the east. Indian trails became Washington’s earliest roads. Wild salmon, delicately grilled and smoked in Alderwood, has become the hallmark of Washington State cuisine. Come visit our lands, and come learn about our cultures and our peoples. Our families continue to be intimately woven into the world around us. As Tribes, we will always fi ght for preservation of our natural resources. As Tribes, we will always hold our elders and our ancestors in respect. As Tribes, we will always protect our treaty rights and sovereignty, because these are rights preserved, at great sacrifi ce, ABOUT ATNI/EDC by our ancestors.
