"Gwaii Haanas is part of Parks Canada system of Protected areas"...
Gwaii Haanas is first and foremost part of Haida Gwaii and will always be part of Haida Gwaii. Parks Canada is presently a self- imposed overseer of First Nations territories a "Claim" of ownership that dates back to the time of Gov Douglas who made illegal Claims on the land for the Crown of England.
The Rest is History.
If one is Haida by heritage one ought to speak of Our Heritage not of Their Heritage.
Alicia states her heritage as part Haida and Part Mohawk. Why does she present a Haida presentation with words as "Their culture and Their knowledge" and not "Our Culture and Our knowledge"?
Why does she distance herself from the Haida Culture? Is Parks Canada Culture a culture of its own?
