These reports are narrative outlines of how Indian and non-native populations have used these -rivers, with emphasis on navigability, tidal influence, riparian interests, settlement patterns, commercial use and fishing rights. These historical reports were requested by the Interdepartmental Reserve Boundary Review Committee, a body comprising representatives from Indian Affairs and Northern Development [DIAND], Justice, Energy, Mines and Resources [EMR], and chaired by Fisheries and Oceans. The committee is tasked with establishing a government position on reserve boundaries that can assist in determining the area of application of Indian Band fishing by-laws. -

Educational Studies The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date: August 1994 Abstract Throughout the first half of this century controversy surrounded the division of governance between provincial and local authorities. In a general sense this thesis examines the centralizing forces of equality of opportunity promoted by the provincial government versus the forces of decentralization found in the principle of local autonomy. Specifically this thesis examines the reasons why the school districts in die central interior of British Columbia, around Prince George, were consolidated with little or no opposition in 1946 following the recommendations of the Cameron Report. This thesis is a case study of the region approximately in the center of the province that was to become School District No. -

Miners' Meetings and Mining Boards: the Development of Mining Law In
Miners’ Meetings and Mining Boards: The Development of Mining Law in Colonial British Columbia, 1858-1867 Thomas Oscar Mills A Thesis in The Department of History Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (History) at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada September 2016 © Thomas Oscar Mills, 2016 CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY School of Graduate Studies This is to certify that the thesis prepared By: Thomas Oscar Mills Entitled: Miners’ Meetings and Mining Boards: The Development of Mining Law in Colonial British Columbia, 1858-1867 and submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (History) complies with the regulations of the University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. Signed by the final examining committee: Dr. Barbara Lorenzkowski Chair Dr. Eric H. Reiter Examiner Dr. Gavin Taylor Examiner Dr. Wilson Chacko Jacob Supervisor Approved by Chair of Department or Graduate Program Director Dean of Faculty Date Abstract Miners’ Meetings and Mining Boards: The Development of Mining Law in Colonial British Columbia, 1858-1867 Thomas Oscar Mills Miners’ meetings were a customary legal practice from California that was imported to British Columbia during the Fraser River gold rush (1858). To date, there has been limited recognition of this practice’s influence on the development of British Columbia. The historical works that do exist on the subject argue that the practice was not established in the colony owing to the Colonial Government’s allowance for Mining Boards, a representative institution, by The Gold Fields Act, 1859. To the contrary, this thesis looks at the different ways that miners’ meetings and miners’ customary law were expressed and adapted to conditions in British Columbia before and after the passing of The Gold Fields Act, 1859. -
Birken Buddhist Forest MONASTERY: Asian Migration, the Creative Class, and Cultural Transformation in the New Pacific British Columbia
Birken Buddhist Forest MONASTERY: Asian Migration, the Creative Class, and Cultural Transformation in the New Pacific British Columbia Luke Clossey and Karen Ferguson* ne night in the mid-1990s police and ambulance responded to a medical emergency at a broken-down shack on the road between Mount Currie and D’Arcy in the Birkenhead Valley Onear Pemberton, two hundred kilometres north of Vancouver in the Coast Mountain range. Bumping their heads against the low doorframe, they were surprised to find inside a collapsed neighbour from down the road being tended to by a dozen young Thai women, a thirty-year-old German man, and a Canadian in his early forties. The men were wearing ochre robes and were bald, beardless, and eyebrow-less. This was Birken Forest Monastery. The Canadian was Venerable (Ven.) Sona (né Tom West), a Buddhist monk born and brought up mostly in the suburbs of Vancouver but now following the orthodox Thai forest tradition of Theravada Buddhism. In June1994 , he travelled from the Sri Lankan Buddhist Vihara Society (BVS) temple in Surrey, BC, to a cluster of unwinterized, off-grid shacks on the gold rush–era Pemberton Portage Road near Pemberton. There, along with his German-born fellow monk, Ven. Piyadhammo, he succeeded in establishing only the second North American foothold of the Thai forest tradition founded by a non-Asian monk.1 This tradition has since spread globally to become one of the most successful Theravada monastic orders outside Asia, particularly among non-Asian converts. * We’re grateful to our research participants for their generosity in sharing their memories with us. -
