SUMMARY:Prescribed cultural burn near Bonneau Rd Information meeting
DESCRIPTION:Prescribed cultural burn near Bonneau Rd Information meeting\n\nNovember 13th\, 5:00pm at New Horizons building.\n\n\n\nOn November 13\, 2024\, at 5:00pm\, at the New Horizon Centre\, the TSD division would like to invite community members to a presentation regarding the plans for a Prescribed–Cultural Burn on the south facing hill side and plateau above Bonneau Road. There will be representatives of the First Nations Emergency Services Society (FNESS) and Foresite Consulting who are working with the TSD Division to plan and manage this burn.\n\n\nThe intent of the meeting would be to introduce the project\, discuss the steps involved in the planning and to consult the community on objectives. It must be stated that weather conditions would have to be ideal for the burn to proceed. We want to engage community members in a discussion and hear any questions or concerns community members may have. Dinner will be served at 5pm prior to the meeting.\n\nWe are sensitive and aware that after the devastating impacts of the White Rock Lake Fire on the OKIB community\, and specifically the Six Mile area\, that community members would be rightly concerned about any fire or smoke close to our community. However\, we also know that each spring many community members undertake their own limited burns to the grasses and shrubs around their properties to reduce the risk of fire to their homes and outbuildings. Historically\, Indigenous communities undertook spring burns of the underbrush and pastures near their communities to improve the grazing landscape\, which also reduced the threat of wildfire.\nPlease Join us at the New Horizon Center at 5:00 pm on November 13\, 2024\, to learn more about this proposed Community Wildfire Protection Project\n\n\n\nMaurice Evans\nEmergency Program Coordinator

SUMMARY:Arrow Lakes - Community Witness Hearing
DESCRIPTION:Arrow Lakes – Community Witness Hearing November 19th-22nd 9:30 am-4:30 pm @ Head of the Lake Hall \nThe community witness hearing will be taking place at HOL from November 19th-November 22nd\, 2024 from 9:30 am-4:30 pm with the exception of November 19th which will start at 9:00am to allow for an Opening Ceremony. \nOKIB community members are welcome to attend the community witness hearing. However\, it is a formal process\, similar to court\, so only community members invited to be witnesses and legal counsel 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. If you have information on these topics\, and a member of our team has not yet spoken to you\, please contact one of OKIB’s lawyers\, Christina Joynt at cjoynt@jfklaw.ca or 416-587-0936.
