[edit] Creation and Collaboartion

I remember in the aftermath of the storm, the Globe and Mail, or the Vancouver Sun, published a feature story on the history of Stanley Park. It went into detail about the eviction of August Jack and other event around the theft of the area. It's interesting to note that the Stanley Park page mentions little about the 99 year lease from the Crown, when Crown land is usually automatically up for land claims, especially when the Park is unceded territory. I have this striking feeling the media will be following this soon. If or when it comes out and a media scrum happens between the Squamish Nation, the Parks Board, and the City of Vancouver, this article will probably be a good one to work on since it will be a strong indicator of existance in Stanley Park. Mention of the remains excavated in he late 1890's, the eviction of the people, the villages, the other stories around this village. I'll pull out my "Stanley Park Secrets" and start citing sources right away. Any help would be appreciated! OldManRivers (talk) 03:20, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
