Book excerpt: "The Province of British Columbia, led by the Office of Housing and Construction Standards (OHCS), is currently developing a ten-year off-reserve Aboriginal Housing Action Plan aimed at closing the housing gap between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in British Columbia. As part of the process to develop the Action Plan, the OHCS met with approximately 250 Aboriginal and community representatives throughout the province in a series of twelve regional workshops and focus group sessions during February and March, 2008. This report provides a summary of the key themes and possible solutions that were raised by participants during those sessions. Important to note is that this summary report reflects the views and opinions expressed by participants throughout the engagement process and in some cases may not accurately depict existing government policies and programs."--Executive summary.

Book excerpt: PAGE V ABORIGINAL HOUSING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA NEEDS AND CAPACITY ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides an overview of the current status of housing for Aboriginal people in British Columbia (BC) and assesses the capacity of Aboriginal organizations and communities to develop and manage housing. [...] The report also projects housing needs of Aboriginal people in BC over the next ten years and identifies barriers to "closing the gap" in housing for Aboriginal people. [...] The objectives of the report are as follows: 1. To paint a comprehensive picture of the current status of Aboriginal housing in BC. [...] It is important to note that, because the capacity of each organization and community varied so widely, and because the timelines to conduct the interviews were short - the information for the interviews was not always consistently provided in exactly the same way or the same format. [...] While there are some overarching issues regarding the participation of Aboriginal people in the Census and the Aboriginal Peoples Survey, these sources of data still present the best composite picture of Aboriginal people in BC.
Download or read book Canada The State of the Federation 2013 written by Martin Papillon and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally associated with the federal government, Aboriginal policy has arguably become a far more complex reality. With or without formal self-government, Aboriginal communities and nations are increasingly assertive in establishing their own authority in areas as diverse as education, land management, the administration of justice, family and social services, and housing. The 2013 State of the Federation volume gathers experts and practitioners to discuss the contemporary dynamics, patterns, and challenges of Aboriginal multilevel governance in a wide range of policy areas. Recent court decisions on Aboriginal rights, notably on the duty to consult, have forced provincial and territorial governments to develop more sustained relationships with Aboriginal organizations and governments, especially in the management of lands and resources. Showing that Aboriginal governance is, more than ever, a multilevel reality, contributors address questions such as: What are the challenges in negotiating and implementing these bilateral and trilateral governance agreements? Are these governance arrangements conducive to real and sustained Aboriginal participation in the policy process? Finally, what are the implications of these various developments for Canadian federalism and for the rights and status of Aboriginal peoples in relation to the Canadian federation?

Book excerpt: Vancouver is heralded around the world as a model for sustainable development. In Planning on the Edge, nationally and internationally renowned planning scholars, activists, and Indigenous leaders assess whether this reputation is warranted. While recognizing the many successes of the “Vancouverism” model, the contributors acknowledge that the forces of globalization and speculative property development have increased social inequality and housing insecurity since the 1980s in the city and the region. By evaluating policies at the local, provincial, and federal levels and taking reconciliation with Indigenous peoples into account, Planning on the Edge highlights the kinds of policies and practices needed to reorient Vancouver’s development trajectory along a more environmentally sound and equitable path.
Download or read book Past Matters written by Caroline Miller and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Past Matters brings together a group of largely Australian and New Zealand academics who in a series of case studies consider how planning concepts were adopted, adjusted, adapted and extended in a Pacific Rim setting. The early chapters explore the interplay between British and American planning models and local circumstances in Australia, Japan, and New Zealand. The main body of chapters recount difficulties faced by indigenous peoples with respect to housing needs and more generally re-asserting themselves in what began as colonial urban areas as well as others that look at community meanings, liberalism and exclusion on the street, and the power of sectional interests. The latter chapters also pose questions about urban heritage in terms of what and whose interests are at stake in these debates. The volume concludes with two convergent chapters that outline some practices by which ‘heritage’ of a more day to day suburban sort can be protected within a planning system. The collection centres on Australia and New Zealand but extends to include chapters on Canada and Japan. The viewpoints offered serve as a gentle reminder of the limitations of ‘Metropolitian Theory’.

This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hidden crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada is both a national tragedy and a national shame. In this ground-breaking new volume, as part of their larger efforts to draw attention to the shockingly high rates of violence against our sisters, Jennifer Brant and D. Memee Lavell-Harvard have pulled together a variety of voices from the academic realms to the grassroots and front-lines to speak on what has been identified by both the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the United Nations as a grave violation of the basic human rights of Aboriginal women and girls. Linking colonial practices with genocide, through their exploration of the current statistics, root causes and structural components of the issue, including conversations on policing, media and education, the contributing authors illustrate the resilience, strength, courage, and spirit of Indigenous women and girls as they struggle to survive in a society shaped by racism and sexism, patriarchy and misogyny. This book was created to honour our missing sisters, their families, their lives and their stories, with the hope that it will offer lessons to non-Indigenous allies and supporters so that we can all work together towards a nation that supports and promotes the safety and well-being of all First Nation, Métis and Inuit women and girls.
