The Crees of James Bay have adopted the music and dance of the Irish and Scottish since the late 1800s through the staff of the Hudson Bay Company, most of who were of Irish and Scottish ancestry. Here is an edited version of a jigging performance on 2004 Year's celebration in Whapmagoostui, Quebec, by a local dance troop. "Soldier's Joy" performed by Cree fiddler Matthew Mukash. Enjoy!!!
