Tsartlip: Looking for 'home improvement' ideas? Tour the Olsen's family friendly compound on the Tsartlip Reserve - Joni Olsen belongs to the Tsartlip First Nation and lives on Tsartlip Reserve on Vancouver Island's Saanich peninsula. If you...walk through the door into her family home, you not only enter a realm that defies the media's stereotype of Aboriginal housing as substandard and bleak, but you learn through conversation some of the obstacles that keep First Nations people from improving their homes in simple ways that most Canadians would take for granted.

 
When I Was Small-i Wan Kwikws: A Grammatical Analysis of St'at'imc Oral Narratives (First Nations Language Series) [Hardcover]: Collected in this book are the personal life histories of four female St’át’imc elders: Beverley Frank, Gertrude Ned, Laura Thevarge, and Rose Agnes Whitley. These elders are among the last remaining fluent speakers of St’át’imcets, a severely imperilled Northern Interior Salish language, also known as Lillooet and spoken in the southwest interior of British Columbia. Their stories are presented in the original St’át’imcets as well as in English translation.
