Positioning the Missionary
Author(s): John Booth Good
Synopsis: In the cramped confines of the Fraser Canyon, the NlahZampx people’s encounter with Europeans began when Simon Fraser passed through their territory in 1808. By the time British Columbia entered into Confederation in 1871, disease and the sudden influx of thousands of miners in search of gold had exacted a heavy toll, and a pattern of European settlement and expropriation of Native land had been established.
