SS10-3: BC traditional industries

We began today's class by discussing reasons different people thought B.C. should or shouldn't join Confederation.  I was most impressed with the class's ability to puzzle out such a good variety of ideas.  When we reviewed, we found that you came up with all of the main reasons: well done.

Next we read a summary on four of B.C.'s main resource industries.  We practiced taking "marginal notes."  Then we shared our ideas.  We ended by looking at a Google Earth image of North Road and greater Vancouver.

Use this link to begin your search for information on BC's traditional resource industries: http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/exhibits/timemach/galler09/frames/index.htm

I suggested you could read pp. 227-228 if you were finished early.

There is no homework.
