SUMMARY:Arrow Lakes Tribunal Hearing
DESCRIPTION:Arrow Lakes Tribunal Hearing \nThe Arrow Lakes Tribunal is a private event for OKIB Members only. \nMarch 17-21 at Prestige Vernon Hotel (4411 32 St\, Vernon\, BC) \nMarch 17\, 2025: 1:00pm-4:30pm \nMarch 18\, 2025: 1:30pm-4:30pm \nStart time for March 18th has been moved to 1:30pm \nMarch 19\, 2025: 9:30am-4:30pm \nMarch 20\, 2025: 1:00pm-7:00pm \nMarch 21\, 2025: 9:30am-4:30pm \nOKIB Members are invited to attend and listen to the witness\nhearing. \nOnly community members invited to be witnesses and legal\ncounsel will be speaking \nBackground: \nSpecific Claims Tribunal to seek compensation for the Arrow Lake reserve. We have argued that Canada failed to honour its duties to OKIB by refusing to transfer the Arrow Lakes reserve to OKIB when Arrow Lakes and OKIB asked to be combined into one band in the 1950s. \nTHE ARROW LAKES RESERVE \nIn 1952\, Annie Joseph was the last remaining member of the Arrow Lakes Indian Band. She had descendants and other relatives in the Okanagan Indian Band\, so Annie and OKIB asked Canada to combine the two bands. This would have meant that the Arrow Lakes reserve would have become an OKIB reserve. But Canada refused. When Annie died\, Canada declared the Arrow Lakes Indian Band extinct and gave the Arrow Lakes reserve to British Columbia. \nThe purpose of the community witness hearing is for community members to share their knowledge about the Arrow Lakes reserve and Annie Joseph’s request to combine the Arrow Lakes Band and OKIB.
