“…Also, that our Salish People, the people around the world need to know who we are … Maybe when they come down off their planes to Seattle or to Vancouver/Victoria, when they land, they know that they're landing in Coast Salish Territory-the Salish Sea … I believe that it does pay respect to us as a people. (Interview 2010) However, this sentiment was not shared by all Indigenous interviewees. For instance, the Tsartlip master carver and teacher, Temosen, felt that as long as the colonial names were not removed from the map, the structures of neocolonial power would remain intact:…”

“…And I loved the idea of a distinctive identifier, so that was my first brush with it, through a song, oddly enough. (Interview 2010) After consulting with Tsarlip elder, Tom Sampson, who was supportive of the name (see below), Matthews began to integrate the new toponym in the promotional materials of the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre (opened in 2009), seeking to entice tourists and the local community alike with exhibits on themes such as "Sex in the Salish Sea" (Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre 2011).…”

“…So that got me interested again in thinking that maybe it was time to revisit the naming process, and so I pulled together a much more in-depth application. (Interview 2010) After giving the matter more consideration, Harris also agreed that instead of replacing the Georgia Strait with the Salish Sea, the latter should serve as a broader-scale geographic designation that would encompass all three bodies of water, noting that he "didn't really know in detail what those complications might have been when the motion was being put forward" (Interview 2010). It was at this pivotal moment-when the boundaries of the Salish Sea were being debated-that the politics of rescaling the region were most evident to the public at large.…”

This article examines the role that place naming has played in the rescaling of the Pacific waters along the Canada/United States border as the “Salish Sea.” Drawing upon archival materials and a series of semi‐structured interviews, we argue that the scalar framing of such waters as a delimited spatial “unit” was dependent upon the performative reiteration of citational practices that were employed over a period of two decades to discursively assemble these fluid multiplicities into a cartographically bounded space. Although one of the ostensible aims of this geographical designation was to acknowledge the longstanding presence of Coast Salish peoples in the region, the naming of the Salish Sea has also had the political effect of reinforcing neocolonial relations of socio‐spatial dispossession by further entrenching the powers of the state as the final arbiter of geographical naming conventions. Décoloniser la carte ? Les enjeux politiques de la toponymie et le transfert d'échelle de la mer des Salish Cet article étudie le rôle que la dénomination de la « mer des Salish » le long de la frontière canado‐américaine a joué dans le changement d'échelle des eaux du Pacifique. Des documents issus de fonds d'archives et une série d'entretiens semi‐dirigés servent d'appui pour défendre l'idée selon laquelle la conception scalaire de ces eaux en tant qu'unité spatiale délimitée découlait de la réitération performative des pratiques citationnelles adoptées depuis deux décennies afin de traduire de manière discursive cette abondance aqueuse dans un espace cartographique circonscrit. Bien que l'un des objectifs apparents de cette appellation géographique fût de reconnaître l'ancienneté de l'établissement dans la région des peuples Salish de la côte, l'appellation de la mer des Salish a eu comme impact politique de renforcer les relations néocoloniales de la dépossession socio‐spatiale en consolidant les pouvoirs étatiques comme arbitre final des conventions existantes en matière de toponymie. Mots clés : décolonisation, performativité, mer des Salish, toponymie, échelle

“…Hemicellulose is a group of carbohydrate biopolymers that exist in close association with cellulose in the plant cell wall but it is less complex and easily hydrolysable (Arntzen, 1994;Desch and Dinwoodie 1996). The destructive distillation of Hymenocardia acida gave rise to four products in the following compositions; wood charcoal (2.5g), pyroligneous acid (2.75cm 3 ), wood tar (0.2cm 3 ) and wood gas (841 cm 3 ).…”

“…However, it is their timber that provides the greatest contribution in terms of income. (Arntzen, 1994) Different trees species provide timber with varying strength, durability, resonance, colour and scent. As a result, only certain tree species are suitable for a given purpose or end use, be it for building materials, veneers, furniture, musical instruments, and others.…”

Timber has always played an influencing role in human lives. The quality of timber and its behavior in response to fire depends on many parameters. As a result Hymenocardiaacidawood was studied in terms of thermal , water imbibitions (at different time intervals: 30mins 11.1%, 5hrs 13.8% and 24hrs 22.3%), etc, These results showed it to be a good timber suitable for various construction purposes. Phytochemical screening showed the presence of saponins, tannins, steroids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, proteins, resins, terpenoids, glycosides and alkaloids. The Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) of the sample showed the presence of some metals such as Na, K, Pb, Ca, As, Zn, Mg, and Cu in the decreasing order of their concentrations. The thin layer chromatographic analysis of the chloroform and chloroform-methanol extracts which gave three spots with Rf values of 0.7, 0.6 and 0.5 was further characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared and Ultraviolet Spectroscopic methods. The Fourier Transform Infrared and Ultraviolet spectra suggested a 1, 2, 3-trisubstitutedphenylamide with OH, CO and CN groups attached as the functional groups present. The chemical components analysis showed the presence of cellulose, hemicelluloses, lignin and other constituents in their right proportion. The results provided the required information on the properties of Hymenocardiaacidawood. It also confirmed the efficiency of the wood for various construction purposes and its medicinal ability due to the presence of the secondary metabolites. © JASEM https://dx.doi.org/10.4314/jasem.v21i5.19
