These are some very informative articles on this web page and I am learning so much by going through and reading bits and pieces. The article about the Tsimsian building canoes and doing art work and gathering to reconnect with Family members is so exciting. To know this is still happening in Indian Country makes me so happy that I would love to be a part of making this happen everywhere, to connect famillies together is wonderful.
What a wonderful time to come together and rejoyce with old and make new friends. I can’t wait to be able to go get on the water this year to see all the canoes come togetrher
