indicators of SFM, the second goal of this thesis is examining potential differences between Indigenous and nonindigenous PAC participants regarding their opinions about the success of the PAC process in fulfilling their expectations and their perspectives about forest values. Under the second goal, I have

had two district objectives. First, examining opinions of the two groups concerning the success of PAC processes in fulfilling their expectations. Second, statistically testing potential differences between Indigenous and nonindigenous public advisory committee (PAC) members regarding their feelings

about different forest values. I have attempted to address this goal by using the 2004 and 2016 national surveys data of PAC members in Canada. I used a Mann-Whitney U test to estimate if there is statistically significant difference between indigenous and nonindigenous PAC members regarding the two

complexity of bioregionalism in a politically and ecologically complex region. To this end, this project addresses settler culture disregard for indigenous land rights and knowledge. Since a bioregion is a cultural as well as a biological ecology, this study acknowledges the ongoing repression and genocide

of indigenous people and First Nations culture in British Columbia. Further, contemporary and historical settler culture art and literature do not adequately address indigenous land claims and colonial violence, but do show potential for creative alternatives to reductive ecological relationships.

reform secondary education, creating a series of agricultural and vocational training schools that would ensure the productivity of the working-class population.

population became de-Indianized, rational, sober, and hygienic. The assumption was that the Indigenous population was responsible for Yucatán’s backwardness, and that education would transform them into proper citizens and valuable members of society. Alvarado’s education reforms faced opposition from the

training the Indigenous population should receive. Yucatán’s education system also struggled to survive as it lacked the necessary funds to ensure that all schools had supplies, equipment, and staff to run effectively. For these reasons, Alvarado’s education reforms ultimately did not fully endure past

The dawn of the 21st Century has been a period of transition in Canadian museology marked by greater public awareness of the concept of Indigenous voice and cultural authority in the representation of past lifeways, increasing concerns over ownership and repatriation of artifacts, and expanding

partnerships between museums and Indigenous communities. During this time Canadian museums have struggled to balance their mandate of preserving and sharing material history with the public, with the desire of Indigenous communities to retain and preserve both sacred and secular artifacts from their material

past. Although digital repatriation provides Indigenous communities with an opportunity to explore previously inaccessible elements of their material culture, and to convey in their own voice the story of their past, an uncomfortable power dynamic exists. Indigenous peoples are being called upon to
