Recommendation 1:
Acknowledge that the cultural heritage of Indigenous Peoples belongs to and should be managed by Indigenous Peoples. Without exaggeration, 99.9% of archaeological sites in British Columbia, extending back in time more than 10,000 years, are those of Indigenous Peoples. Yet Indigenous Peoples have had little say in or control over decisions made concerning their study, preservation, or destruction.

Recommendation 20:
“Tenant retention strategy.” As with the experience of the BIA, the “lack of succession planning makes retention challenging.” Due to the contributions that traditional businesses make to the neighbourhood character, through intangible values with the social and cultural connections they hold, we recommend that a working group be formed to come up with options that the City, other levels of government, as well as other stakeholders can implement to assist with succession planning of these businesses. Namely, to explore how traditional businesses can succeed in becoming community- and membership- owned entities. Applying cooperative values can serve the community/membership as well as democratizing ownership and economics of the business.
