About Stewardship and Community Involvement About Stewardship and Community Involvement This is the 14th edition of the Stewardship and Community Involvement Directory. The directory provides a “snap shot” of the many community-based projects and activities operating under oceans, habitat and salmon enhancement community programs. We have written this directory as a resource for those involved in these endeavours. This edition is organized by geographic areas to reflect Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s (DFO) move to an area-based management model in the Pacific Region. There have been many changes since the last edition of this directory. The most significant change was the formal ending of the five-year Resource Rebuilding initiatives: Habitat Conservation and Stewardship Program (HCSP), Habitat Restoration and Salmon Enhancement Program (HRSEP) and Strategic Stock Enhancement Program (SSEP). These short-term initiatives will continue to provide many benefits to conserve and protect West Coast salmon and their habitat for many years to come. So will the ongoing efforts of hundreds of volunteers who give freely of their time, labour and skill to preserve the resource for generations to come. The future of our resources depends on educating children and young adults. New education materials and resources have been introduced to classrooms from kindergarten to Grade 12. Teachers and students are taken “from stream to sea” right in the classroom. New activities in the revised Salmonids in the Classroom curricu- lum introduce students to topics like sustainability and stewardship. New oceans learning resources like Beach Explorations, Salish Sea, and Beside the Sea round out the new curriculum. There are now 18 DFO Community Advisors (CAs) serving B.C. and Yukon Territory. Two positions were added since the last edition: Barry Peters is the CA in Campbell River and Mark Johnson is the CA for Eastern Fraser Valley. Other CAs have moved to different areas. Dave Davies has moved from the Queen Charlotte Islands to Comox and Christina Engel is the new CA for the Queen Charlotte Islands. Martin Forbes is the new CA in Terrace and Rob Heibein will be Acting CA for Williams Lake while Roy Argue is on leave. Welcome to all. There are many people to thank for helping to produce this resource guide. My special thanks go out to Mark Johnson, Yuka Ota, and Joanne Day for their contributions. Jeff Jung A/Regional Chief Stewardship and Community Involvement Unit Habitat and Enhancement Branch 1 About this Directory The 2003-2004 Habitat and Enhancement Branch (HEB) Community Involvement Directory lists Fisheries and Oceans Canada HEB community involvement staff and some community projects supported by these staff. This directory covers the Pacific Region which includes British Columbia and Yukon Territory. The Pacific Region is divided into six areas, each lead by an Area Chief. Each area supports community projects through a team of Community Advisors, Education Coordinators, and Community Liaison Officers. • Community Advisors (CAs) are the key liaisons between DFO and community-based projects. Following each CA listing, is a list of projects supported by that CA. Generally, there are four types of projects: • Community Economic Development Program (CEDP) projects are operated under In some areas, Education commercial and recreational • Areas: Pacific Region (B.C. and contract by Aboriginal people or Coordinators and Community fisheries sectors.

  • BC Road Trip: Great Bear Rainforest Loop
    BC Road Trip: Great Bear Rainforest Loop Vancouver to Nanaimo to Port Hardy to Bella Coola to Anahim Lake to Williams Lake to Lillooet to Whistler to Vancouver Part 1 Vancouver to Nanaimo via BC Ferries 1hr 40 mins crossing time Vancouver and Nanaimo are both gorgeous, well-known and bustling west coast ports in British Columbia. Vancouver is consistently named as one of the top five worldwide cities for livability and quality of life and Nanaimo, known as “The Harbour City” is the gateway for other destinations on northern Vancouver Island. We highly recommend planning a day to explore each city’s landscape and culture. We recommend you reserve a spot on the ferry leaving Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal, as the wait for sail times can get quite long in the spring and summer months. Part 2 Nanaimo to Port Hardy Ferry 385 km | 4.5 hours Coming out of Nanaimo, take Highway BC-19N toward Campbell River and follow it all the way up to Port Hardy, where you will board a ferry to Bella Coola. This picturesque stretch of highway is chock full of quaint towns, camping and fishing spots, wineries and craft breweries, and so much more. Check out Tourism Vancouver Island for the lowdown on the island’s activities and sights. Port Hardy: A fantastic town at the northern tip of Vancouver Island, Port Hardy serves as a hub for air, ferry and marine transportation networks, and serves as the gateway to the fast-growing Central Coast (part of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region). The town also supports several traditional and emerging sectors and remains rich in natural resources and community spirit.

  • Oceans, Habitat and Enhancement Branch 2006-2007
    Oceans, Habitat and Enhancement Branch 2006-2007 DirectoryA guide to community involvement, stewardship, Streamkeepers, and education projects in British Columbia and the Yukon Territory Published by Community Involvement Oceans, Habitat and Enhancement Branch Fisheries and Oceans Canada Suite 200 – 401 Burrard Street Vancouver, BC V6C 3S4 Dear Stewardship Community, This edition of the Stewardship and Community Involvement directory marks our 15th year of publication. We believe this is a useful reference tool, providing a summary of the numerous community-based projects and activities that partner with Oceans, Habitat and Enhancement Community Programs. This edition is organized by geographic areas to reflect the area-based management model which Fisheries and Oceans Canada has implemented in the Pacific Region. The future of our world depends upon educating children and young adults. The Stream to Sea education program is strongly supported throughout Pacific Region, with involvement of over 25 part and full-time Education Coordinators, 18 Community Advisors and many educational professionals and volunteers supporting the program. The Stream to Sea program combines oceans and aquatic species education and lessons on marine and freshwater habitat to create a stewardship ethic. The ultimate goal is to have students become aquatic stewards, caring for the environment around them. The Community Advisors dedicate their mission statement to the volunteers and community projects: “Fostering cooperative fisheries and watershed stewardship through education and involvement”. Our Community Advisors work alongside the stewardship community, building partnerships within community. From assisting with mini hatchery programs, policy implementation, to taking an active role in oceans and watershed planning, these staff members are the public face of DFO.

  • Sergeant John Percy Hampton Bole
    Sergeant John Percy H. Bole – WW1 Veteran: Vimy Ridge, Lens, 2nd Passchendaele By Catherine Elson, Belcarra South, BC, November 17th, 2017. Shortly after I submitted an article for the April 2017 issue of the ‘Belcarra Barnacle’ on the ‘Battle of Vimy Ridge’, I received Percy Bole’s “full/complete” CEF (overseas) military file. Wading through this information and the official War Diaries of the ‘54th Battalion’, as well as, doing quite a bit of digging and fact checking, I decided to update my original article… April 9th, 2017, marked the 100th Anniversary of the ‘Battle of Vimy Ridge’, and it is worth noting that a long-time Belcarra resident was one of the 97,000 Canadians who fought in this pivotal battle of World War 1 (WW1). John “Percy” Hampton Bole, the son of Judge Wm. Norman Bole who named ‘Belcarra’, was well-known in his own right as the patriarch of the “Bole Estate”, a 143-acre property that stretched south along the shoreline from the Belcarra picnic grounds to the ‘Admiralty Point Military Reserve’ and across to Bedwell Bay. He was also one of 620,000 Canadian soldiers who served in WW1. Percy “joined-up” in January 1916 (before conscription) and spent almost three years overseas. In 1917, he spent 10 months on the front lines, in France and Belgium, and fought in three major battles that took place that year: the ‘Battle of Vimy Ridge’ (April), the ‘Battle of Lens’ (August), and the ‘2nd Battle of Passchendaele’ (November). J.P.H. Bole, 1925 (CVA Port P185) ‘Witley Camp’, Surrey, England, October 17th, 1916.
