Our histories responsibility to protect not only our families, but also are contained within the oral traditions of our stories the land in which we live. Families are responsible and songs. Our recorded history exists through our for maintaining a connection to the land, to honour crests, house posts, petroglyphs, baskets, blankets, and and respect the way we live today, and to remember paintings. Children are taught at a very young age to our past. First Nations’ histories impart a sense of be- listen. They are taught to listen to stories as they weave, longing and a way of holding on to the values that sustain us. Instilled within our languages are the ties to land, fam- ily, community, and the great respect and honour we have for all nations. Every culture has a world view that determines a people’s basic beliefs of how to act in society. These beliefs are so fundamental that people usually do not realize that they have them because they form a piece of who they are. Tra- ditional First Nations view the world as an integrated whole, balancing physical, emotional, mental, and spir- itual health. These beliefs make up who a person is and how he or she func- tions in society and within the envi- ronment. The life forces that exist in mountains, rivers, plants, animals, peo- ple, and spiritual beings are all interre- lated.

The carvings were created stories have been told for generations and continue many centuries ago. to be told today. There are many significant pieces to oral tradi- tions. While there is sometimes room for innovation and creativity, it is important that the people trained to carry the stories retell them accurately, in order to pass down the histories, traditions, laws, and the vari- ous technologies to future generations. The stories are not just stories. They are our foundation, our iden- tity, and our culture.

Some of the future province’s most famous and notorious early citizens arrived during that year.
