Resumen

In 1981 the Nisga'a Tribal Council in New Aiyansh and North Coast Tribal Council in Prince Rupert commissioned a feasibility study to determine whether there was interest among Indian people of coastal British Columbia in pursuing registered nurse (RN) education. The study resulted in a three year project, the Northern Native Indian Professional Nursing Program (NNIPNP) offering RN preparation which addressed the personal, social and cultural needs of prospective students, their families and communities, while ensuring quality education at par with provincial standards. This article discusses the project as a community-based initiative and my roles as program coordinator, cultural broker, advocate, and liaison between communities, students and the educational institutions offering the RN program.

Resumen

British Columbia is a diverse province, with ecosystems ranging from semi-arid deserts to valley glaciers and vast ice fields. By world standards, BC has an abundance of fresh water in its lakes and rivers. However, rivers have been exploited for social and industrial purposes, often to the detriment of the natural values. Community groups and non-government organizations have been active in rehabilitating and restoring waterways. The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC is a provincial non-government organization that has been instrumental in river conservation issues in BC. Three key initiatives have been established by the Council since its formation in 1975. BC Rivers Day has grown into the largest river celebration of its kind in North America, and there is a move to establish a national Rivers Day in Canada based on the model established in BC. Second is the annual Endangered Rivers List compiled by the Council and released each spring. The third initiative is the River Recovery Project in which dams and impoundment structures were evaluated against a set of criteria. A short list of candidates was generated by the project that will be further studied to determine what actions should be taken to alter the management of the structures to restore ecological values of the rivers and streams on which they are built. The three initiatives described rely on local community support. The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC provides coordination, promotion, and publicity as well as some resource materials while local groups and communities take on stewardship roles for their local streams. This model may be useful for other jurisdictions.

Resumen

The article examines the role of the family in the lives of women in a turn-of-the-century psychiatric institution in British Columbia, Canada. The continued connection between institutionalized women and their families is highlighted. Evidence drawn from the psychiatric case files of 774 women patients at British Columbia's Provincial Hospital for the Insane show that families significantly influenced such factors of institutional life as the conditions of care, the timing of discharge and the possibility of readmission. Conclusions presented here underscore the negotiated and conflictual nature of asylum practice.

Resumen

The Future Forest Ecosystems Scientific Council (FFESC) was created in 2008 following a one-time allocation of funding from the BC provincial government to support research that would inform adaptation of BC’s current forest management policies to a changing climate. A key goal of the council was to maximize the utility of the research to inform provincial policy. The eightstep process that we developed to achieve this goal is described in this paper. In roughly chronological order, the eight steps were: determining the research needed to inform policy, connecting scientists and policy-makers, requiring interdisciplinary teams including both natural and social scientists and relevant stakeholders, assessing proposals for their value to inform policy, fostering scientific excellence, fostering ongoing communication between scientists and policy-makers, tailoring communication to policy-makers, and disseminating the policy-relevant outcomes in a timely and targeted manner. Based on the FFESC experience, we suggest best practices for engaging policy-makers in research and scientists in policy development and adaptation.

Resumen

The Justice Institute of British Columbia convened its first annual Paramedics Connecting Through Applied Research (Paramedics CARe) between May 27 2021 and June 11 2021 over four morning sessions held online. The conference was co-sponsored by the CSA Group, the Justice Institute of British Columbia, and the University of Waterloo through a Connections grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. The aim of the Paramedics CARe is to mobilise knowledge on the latest research in Canadian paramedicine and foster intersectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration between academic researchers, educators, provincial and municipal governments, private small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that support paramedic practice, and the public through patient advocacy groups. In this Conference Report, the authors share some featured presentations, discuss lessons learned and visions for the future of paramedicine.

Resumen

This article situates a 1976 feminist rally in Victoria, British Columbia, Women Rally for Action, within the context of Canada’s national feminist movement. The rally was a legislative lobbying event aimed at the newly elected Social Credit government and their cuts to the social services that supported gender equality in the province. By tracing the development of the second wave feminist movement in Canada and in BC, this article explores how the organizers of the BC rally employed a national feminist strategy of organized political pressure. In doing so, they worked towards the politicization of the women’s movement on a national and provincial level, and developed an invaluable framework for future women’s organizing in BC.

Resumen

Abstract This essay focuses on the role of Lieutenant-Governor Hector-Gustave Joly de Lotbinière in bringing political stability to British Columbia after the turn of the twentieth century. As well as ensuring that the composition of the executive council was based on federal party lines, he worked to ease federal-provincial tensions and exercised a significant influence on the McBride government’s highly effective economic reform programme. Joly has been largely ignored by historians, aside from his short term as Quebec premier, but his socially conservative liberalism made him an ideal promoter of Canada’s liberal order on the west coast.

Resumen

Background. Providing equitable access to the full range of reproductive health services over wide geographic areas presents significant challenges to any health system. We present a review of a service provision model which has provided improved access to abortion care; support for complex issues experienced by women seeking nonjudgmental family planning health services; and a mechanism to collect information on access barriers. The toll-free pregnancy options service (POS) of British Columbia Women’s Hospital and Health Centre sought to improve access to services and overcome barriers experienced by women seeking abortion.Methods. We describe the development and implementation of a province-wide toll-free telephone counseling and access facilitation service, including establishment of a provincial network of local abortion service providers in the Canadian province of British Columbia from 1998 to 2010.Results. Over 2000 women annually access service via the POS line, networks of care providers are established and linked to central support, and central program planners receive timely information on new service gaps and access barriers.Conclusion. This novel service has been successful in addressing inequities and access barriers identified as priorities before service establishment. The service provided unanticipated benefits to health care planning and monitoring of provincial health care related service delivery and gaps. This model for low cost health service delivery may realize similar benefits when applied to other health care systems where access and referral barriers exist.

Resumen

This study draws upon the results of a survey of the general public in three communities in British Columbia to examinethe social bases of satisfaction with public participation in forest management decision-making at both the local andprovincial levels. The main findings are that those members of the general public who are relatively more biocentricallyoriented (as indicated by the NEP Scale) are less satisfied, and those who have acquaintanceship ties to people employedin the forestry sector are more satisfied. Women and those with more education were less satisfied (at the provincial level),and Vancouver residents were more satisfied (compared to Kelowna and Armstrong residents). Overall, satisfaction withpublic participation in forest management decision-making was relatively low. It was, however, slightly higher at the locallevel than at the provincial scale. Policy and research implications of this study are discussed.Key words: social networks, public participation, gender, New Ecological Paradigm, satisfaction with forest management,and sustainable forest management

Resumen

This article explores a puzzle in Canadian legal historiography: the meaning of “British justice” and its relationship to race. Scholars have noted the use of this term in the interwar years of the twentieth century, to object to demonstrations of racial bias in the legal system. The puzzle is why. From the mid-1850s onward, statutes aimed at circumscribing the rights and opportunities of aboriginal people multiplied. British Columbia passed anti-Chinese, anti-Japanese, and anti-Indian legislation. Saskatchewan prohibited Chinese and Japanese employers from hiring white women. At least some officials supposed that legislation targeting African Canadians would be permissible. In 1924, the TorontoTelegramcalled for a poll tax against Jews. It is clear that between 1880 and 1920 or thereabouts, federal and provincial law was deeply involved in creating and reifying legal categories that rested explicitly on physical distinctions perceived to exist among people, which were assumed to signal morally and legally relevant characteristics. Why, then, would anyone have thought that “British justice” should be a shield against racism?

Resumen

Although the civil restraining order is the most commonly sought legal initiative to combat intimate partner violence in British Columbia, no known qualitative research has assessed the application process or the enforcement of the orders in BC. Previous quantitative research presents mixed findings and fails to provide an in-depth analysis of how legal and institutional work is organized, and in turn, organizes the process. This thesis employs Dorothy Smith's institutional ethnography to critically examine civil restraining order application processing in the BC Provincial Court. A combination of interviews, observations, and textual analyses contribute to the mapping of the way formalized texts regulate the different phases of practitioner's work. Particular attention is paid to disjunctures between battered women's experiential knowledge and what becomes formally known to practitioners who manage her case. This research found that abused women's lived experience with violence is transformed and shaped into accounts in which her safety needs disappear. Court practitioners become immersed in text-mediated activity within a legal ruling apparatus that emphasizes timely completion of a large quantity of cases, with little or no commitment to quality solutions. In the same effort to preserve limited police time and resources, one policy directs judges to add a police enforcement clause to only a few of the most serious cases. All restraining orders that do not have this clause are currently unenforceable.
