Indigenous Title vs. Private Property: The Cowichan Tribes Decision Explained

The foundation of property ownership in British Columbia faces a potential earthquake with the landmark Cowichan Tribes decision. After what may be Canada's longest trial—spanning over 500 days—the judge delivered an 800-page ruling that could fundamentally alter who truly owns land throughout the province.Michael Mulligan breaks down this complex legal battle by explaining the collision between two powerful forces: BC's Torrens property system and Aboriginal title claims under Section 35 of the Constitution. The Torrens system provides what legal experts call "indefeasible title"—conclusive proof of ownership registered with the government that enables secure property transactions and mortgage lending. But the judge has ruled that Aboriginal title is "a prior and senior right to land" that can exist simultaneously with registered property ownership, potentially superseding private property rights despite the Torrens system's guarantees.The implications are profound. If Aboriginal title claims—which cover virtually the entire province, often with overlapping claims from multiple Indigenous groups—can override registered property ownership, what happens to homeowners who've worked their entire lives to pay for their properties? The economic consequences could be equally severe, as mortgage lending depends on the certainty of ownership. As Mulligan observes, the legal system ultimately depends on public acceptance: "If I tell you that the house you worked for and paid for is no longer yours, I don't know that that's generally going to be accepted." With BC already announcing its intention to appeal, this case will likely progress through higher courts, where judges must balance constitutional obligations to Indigenous peoples with maintaining a functional property system. Listen now to understand what's at stake for every property owner in British Columbia.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discsused.

Even if you don't recognize the Cowichan sweater by its name, you will absolutely recognize it on sight: the thick yarn; the distinctive patterns; the warmth of the raw sheep's wool. But a Cowichan sweater is more than just a sweater, especially for the Coast Salish people from the Cowichan Tribes who make them. It's a provider of life, literally, as a way to put food on the table; it's a way to build community and share stories and connect to ancestors. To quote Ron Rice of the Victoria Native Friendship Centre as featured in filmmaker Mary Galloway's documentary The Cowichan Sweater: Our Knitted Legacy, “Cowichan sweaters are iconic. Cowichan sweaters are our path forward in so many different ways. Cowichan sweaters are a look back and a look forward all at the same time.” Writer, director, filmmaker, and actor Mary Galloway hails from Coast Salish Territory, and her beautiful film brings viewers into the past, present, and future of the Cowichan sweater while taking us along on a deeply personal quest: to recreate a sweater that was worn by her late grandfather, Chief Dennis Alphonse, who was chief for 40 years. The Cowichan Sweater: Our Knitted Legacy is now available on CBC Gem and will have its first national television broadcast on December 23. In this fascinating and revealing conversation with Sabrina Rani Furminger, Mary reflects on her journey into this important part of her own legacy. Episode sponsor: UBCP/ACTRA

Buscando información para el programa, he encontrado todo tipo de historias, leyendas y curiosidades que se dicen han ocurrido aquí, en la ciudad de Duncan, o en las cercanías del valle de Cowichan. También contaré algunas historias, que se conocen por estas montañas, sobre fantasmas, OVNIS, Ufología, desapariciones y asesinatos. Incluso son varios los testigos que aseguran haber visto al Sasquatch, también llamado Big Foot, Pie Grande. Algunos ejemplos son. Articulo del Cowichan Leader, sobre la noticia que tituló: Un Mensaje de Marte. Un meteoro o meteorito con extraños jeroglíficos al parecer, cayó en una granja. Una extraña mujer, conocida como la chica o Niña de la Curva, también se aparece, pero permitidme advertiros, que mucho más aterradora. Carmen Robinson, fue una de las desaparecidas en esta zona, ha dia de hoy tampoco tiene explicación. Otra historia que os contaré, fue la desaparición, aunque no ocurre en este lugar del mapa, del piloto Frederick Valentich, en 1978. Atención a este caso, porque es sobrecogedor. Sobre los suicidios, respecto a temas ufológicos, recordaremos qué ocurrió con la secta de Marshall Applewhite, Puerta del Cielo, Heaven´s Gate. Hablaré también de los suicidas de Terrassa, Jose Félix Rodríguez Montero de 41 años, natural de Aguadulce (Sevilla) y Joan Turú Vallés de 21, es natural de Terrassa. Manuel Carballal, Josep Guijarro y Jordi Monedero fueron periodistas e investigadores que llegaron, tal vez al final de los hechos. Otros chicos que corrieron suertes similares son Juan José Gómez Vargas de 18 años y Francisco Saureu Prim, de tan solo 16. Y qué decir de los hombres de las máscaras de plomo, Campos do Goytacazes (Brasil). Manuel Pereira da Cruz y Miguel José Viana. Increíble historia, todavía de final sin esclarecer.

Beiling rushed outside after spying the strange object through the window and having no good explanation for what she was seeing. The object seemed to hold a ring shape and have something solid in the middle. Beiling recalls being one of several witnesses who had sighted the mysterious object. The object was described as having a texture similar to rolled up plastic and being “...big enough to fit a large plane inside it 15 times.” This sighting has often been connected to another incredible close encounter that took place earlier that morning at the local hospital where a number of medical staff were witness not only to a strange craft, but its occupants, as well.

Doug and Bear head back to the No Job Too Small IT consultancy office to peruse the strange book they found at July's place. Will it give them any clues as to what she's been up to out in the forests of Sternum? Or will it send them down another rabbit-hole of spectral histories and fleeting visions?Hit play above to listen, or scroll down to read. Either way, please enjoy, and do share with any friends who you think might like APOCALYPSE ROCK! “WE LEFT IT AS WE FOUND IT.”Doug and Bear were back at Doug's office. It was still a mess from the previous day's suspected break-in. Doug was sitting at his desk and talking on the phone with Officer Singh, his breath steamed in the chilly air.“We knocked on the door and shouted her name but didn't hear anything… No… No. I don't think she's trying to hide. Maybe from you or Sweetland, I would understand, but not from us.”Doug fiddled with a cigarette, the window next to his desk already open in preparation.“No, we didn't go in… Okay, alright.”Doug hung up, looked around the mess then at Bear, who was in the chair opposite, jacket on and arms crossed, shaking his downturned head. Bear stood up and carefully walked through the stuff scattered across the floor.“Man, they tore this place apart,” Bear sighed. “You got coffee?”“Yep. In the kitchen. I'll have one if you're making.”Doug looked up at the large poster map of the Salish Sea that hung on the wall. The jagged coastlines and hundreds of islands looked protected against the vast Pacific Ocean that was just hinted at by a small lip along the left side of the map.Doug opened July's laptop and punched in the password. The input field wobbled and an “Incorrect” message came up on the screen in red letters.Bear clattered around in the kitchenette, preparing coffee.“She hasn't changed her password in decades…” Doug mumbled to himself, then tried again. The same negative result wobbled up on the screen.Doug scoffed, closed the laptop and picked up the book they had taken from July's desk, running his fingers through the multicolored tabs of post-it notes sprouting from inside the pages. The laminated dust cover had started to blister with age. Beneath the ornately scripted title “Don't Climb Trees…” was an old black and white photograph of a small, forested islet floating in a mirror-like sea. Spindly evergreen trees reached up from the rocky shores and into the mist, their reflections undulating in the smooth waters below. The shoreline was cluttered with a hodgepodge of tiny wooden shacks that jutted out into the still sea, their little chimneys seeped out wispy smoke. Small boats bobbed close to the shacks, and near the camera's eye there floated logs and other refuse. Under the image were the authors' names, Sanctity DeVray & Whispering Bird. Below that read “Published by the Anderson P. Andersen Collection.”Doug opened the book. On the inside cover was stamped “Sternum Island Public Library” in black ink. Pasted opposite on the flyleaf was a pocket for an old library checkout card, the slip still inside, covered in due dates. The first was May 1989, the last was September 2005. “Withdrawn From Circulation” was stamped across the pocket in red ink.A gurgling sound came from the kitchen and the smell of brewing coffee started to fill the chilly air. Doug leafed through the book, his fingers sticking on the paper. There were maps of the Pacific Northwest, old black and white photographs of longhouses and totem poles, colonial buildings and cemeteries, moss-covered cairns and Christian graves overgrown with shrubs. There were groups of young men posing heroically with oversized saw blades in front of giant, felled trees, of indigenous men dressed in a mix of their traditional attire and European suits and bowler hats, of small figures in distant dugout canoes paddling through the misty sea. There were stern-faced members of old religious orders gathered around tables decorated with flowers in celebration, then young hippies in kayaks, or frolicking among camper vans and teepees by the sea, naked children with long hair joyously splashing in a watering hole.“I properly googled Sweetland last night,” Bear shouted from the kitchenette. Doug heard the sound of coffee pouring into cups.“I reached out to some contacts on a couple forums as well. I couldn't find anything about him being a cop anywhere else other than here. It's like he just up and left his couples counseling business back east, then appeared here one day, dressed as a Mountie. And that was that. Bob's your uncle.”Bear emerged from the kitchenette with two steaming mugs of coffee.“Ta-da, you're a Mountie!”“It's possible this was his first post?” replied Doug. “He wouldn't be the first person to move out west to reinvent themselves, right?”Doug took one of the mugs of coffee. Bear looked on as Doug continued to flip through the pages of the old book.The chapters were brief, each describing specific locations, dates of when the burial sites were actively used, various burial rites, and some local lore. Many of the pages had notes inscribed in a neat longhand script in pencil, about the different sites, personal recollections of visits to the places, cryptic annotations about geography, and so on.“Is that July's handwriting?” Bear asked.“Pretty sure,” replied Doug. He turned to the index at the back and looked up Sternum Island. There were four entries in the same chapter, Chemainus, Christian, Cowichan, Saanich. He flipped to the chapter. A map of Sternum Island was dotted with several burial sites, and overtop that July had  jotted down dozens of potential sites on the northwest side of Mount Costo. Next to the cluster of dots she had written “Hippies.” Another dot – this one by the book authors, not July – marked the center of Sternum Village, just up the lane on Orchard Grove. It was July's cabin.“There's bodies buried in July's garden?” Bear wondered.Doug raised his eyebrows at Bear then turned the page. On the left was a picture of a gathering of cairns in the woods, covered in forest debris and ferns.“Mount Costo plateau has numerous, uncounted burial sites, many of which were made inaccessible after a landslide.” Doug read out the caption below the image.“I remember my granddad telling me about a landslide up Costo,” said Bear. “But that was near the old garbage dump up there.”On the right page was a photograph of July's cabin when it was newly built. Apart from the structure settling into the uneven ground beneath it over the years, little about the cabin had changed to present day. A family of five, dressed in their Victorian Sunday best, posed outside on the porch steps. It was a sunny day, the vast garden behind the group lush and verdant looking. Over the shoulder of the straight-backed father, Doug could make out the diamond-gridded window. Doug squinted at the face of the mother, her eyes hidden in shadows, prominent cheekbones and a long, thin-lipped mouth.Despite the blurriness, there was a strong resemblance with July's long and expressive face. Cradled in the woman's arms was a baby.  There was a caption below the picture, “Original Sternum Island homesteaders family, the Shackles, outside their Orchard Grove cabin in 1898. Several early pioneers are buried in unmarked graves nearby on family land.” The neat longhand script had underlined the name Shackles, drawing a line out into the margin, noting, “Edith Shackles neé Billy married William Conrad Shackles, New Albion 1886. Edwina (baby) married into Straitemores 1928, Patricia (3 y/o) married into McDonalds 1920, Charlotte (4 y/o) married into Hardens 1923.”“This must be July's great-grandparents and grandparents,” said Doug. “They'd've just built the place and moved in.”Bear took the book and smiled, “There's so few buildings left from then. Back when Terminal was still called New Albion. Barely past being a one-horse town.”Doug laughed, “I remember July telling me that her grandmother was quite the flapper in the 20s,” he said, pointing to the blurry little baby. His finger moved back to the mother, Edith, her shadowed face's contours echoing July's.“It's uncanny,” remarked Bear. “Has July ever said anything about her grandmother?”“Not really,” replied Doug.“July never mentioned it,” said Bear. “I'd guess her great-grandmother was First Nations, with that last name.”“Billy?” Doug squinted at July's handwriting and Bear nodded.“Was that normal back then, like natives and white people getting married and everything?” asked Doug.“More than you'd guess,” replied Bear. “All those guys from back east or Europe moving out here? Chasing a dream. They sure as hell weren't going back home. Sooner or later they'd want a family. When that sets in, people tend to lose whatever prejudices they might have real quick, I guess. It's the oldest story there is.” Bear handed the book back to Doug.“You can see she was looking everywhere on Sternum for burial sites,” said Doug, flipping through the rest of the chapter, then turned back to the map of Sternum.Doug popped the cigarette in his mouth and lit it up.“Especially up Costo,” said Bear, raising his cup.They sipped on their coffees and some rain-speckled wind blew gently through the window. Tendrils of smoke curled up around Doug as he skimmed through the book.“What're you smoking?” Bear scrunched his nostrils.“American Spirit. Why?” They both looked at the cigarette in Doug's hand.“Smells weird, man. Like burning tires,” Bear stood up and sniffed.Doug stubbed out the butt and stood up, the two sniffing at the strange odor that now wafted through the chilly air, getting stronger and more pungent.Out the window, dark plumes flew over Doug's office and into the forest behind.They ran out to the front of the office. In the distance, up the gravel lane, above the tall trees, a thick stream of dark smoke rose into the grey sky.“July's cabin!” shouted Doug. This is a public episode.

Cortes Currents
Salmon runs in the midst of a West Coast drought

Cortes Currents

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - The drought conditions settling throughout the West Coast are another example of what Fisheries and Oceans Canada has identified as the #1 threat to BC's endangered salmon population. “While there are many stressors that affect Pacific salmon survival, climate change is rapidly superseding these threats,” DFO media spokesperson Lara Sloan emailed Cortes Currents. A recent twitter video shows thousands of dead salmon in spread out across the bottom of an almost dried up creek. Their corpses are so think that you cannot take a step without treading on them. Sloan explained, “On October 4, 2022, the Heiltsuk First Nation identified the death of approximately 63,000 adult Pink and Chum salmon in Neekas Creek which is located approximately 25 km north of Bella Bella.” On Wednesday, October 5, the City of Nanaimo released water from its reservoir to help the Chinook run stranded in the tidal portion of the Nanaimo River. The augmented flow will enable them to reach their spawning grounds. It will taper off on the weekend of October 8-9. It may be a little early for the Chum to return to Basil Creek on Cortes Island. They seem to have arrived towards the end of the month last year. In 2020 Christine Robinson wrote they ‘began to come into the creek on October 17.' There were no signs of any fish, when I walked along the bank this morning. To my untrained eye, it is difficult to image salmon passing through the immense bed of rocks at the creek's mouth. There is only a narrow trickle of water. “Vancouver Island has been experiencing an extended period of dry weather.  Coupled with warmer water temperatures, current conditions for salmon in smaller river systems are generally poor, and there is unlikely to be sufficient rain to improve conditions in the next week to 10 days,” wrote Sloan. “A small number of river systems where water flow is controlled are experiencing water levels more typical for this time of year (e.g. Cowichan, Campbell, Qualicum and Stamp Rivers…).” Rochelle Baker of the National Observer recently donned a wetsuit to swim among the abundant Pink Salmon run in the Campbell River. Sloan warned that it may become necessary to reduce the flows of these less effected rivers, if drought conditions persist. “In general, we are not seeing fish moving into systems in the area, rather they are staging in front of rivers, or in deep pools in rivers where accessible.  Some species have commenced spawning (e.g. Pink Salmon or early-timed populations of Chum and Chinook Salmon), but their eggs are likely safe, provided they remain moist through groundwater or subsurface flows,” she wrote. “The planet is warming, and the most recent five years have been the warmest on record. In Canada, the rate of warming has been twice the global average and is even greater at northern latitudes.  Stemming historic declines and rebuilding key Pacific salmon populations are the overarching goals of the historic $647 million Pacific Salmon Strategy Initiative (PSSI) launched in June 2021. PSSI represents the largest-ever Government of Canada investment to save Pacific salmon. We need to take action toward stemming the declines now, while helping to rebuild adaptable populations over the longer term.”

It has been found that 70% of wild fish populations are either fully used, overused, or in crisis from overfishing. And with food demand projected to increase by 50% by 2050, there is simply not enough fish in the sea for fishing to be sustainable. Fish farming, otherwise known as aquaculture, is intended to supplement this demand. In fact, salmon aquaculture is the fastest-growing food production system in the world- although not without its own share of controversy. Parker Jefferson is a fly-fisherman in Cowichan, Canada, and has been an integral part of the success story for wild salmon in that area. We talk about the environmental and social importance of protecting these animals but also address how we can make choices that lessen the negative impacts of salmon aquaculture.HighlightsHow are salmon culturally important to the First Nation Tribes of Western Canada?What are the negative impacts of salmon aquaculture in that area?How has Parker's community come together to restore and protect the populations of wild salmon in the Cowichan?How can salmon aquaculture lessen its negative impacts?What YOU Can DoChoose wild or certified fish (some certifications can be found in the Resources below).Use a guide such as the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch Guide to help make responsible choices, either on your phone or printed.
