Coal Tyee, once thought to celebrate collaboration, recalls ‘tragic figure’: school district report
Trustees are considering re-naming a Nanaimo elementary school that bears the colonial-era nickname of a First Nations “tragic figure.”
At its Jan. 5 meeting, Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools’ education committee moved a recommendation to form a committee that will come up with a new name for Coal Tyee Elementary School. According to the City of Nanaimo, Ki-et-sa-kun, also known as Coal Tyee (great coal chief), brought coal in the Nanaimo area to the attention of the Hudson’s Bay Company in the mid-19th century.
