  1. The J-pod lost another orca calf. J42 gave birth to her first calf in October, but when researchers went to check on the kiddo’s development, he was nowhere to be found. This orca pod has been losing calves year after year, thanks to the loss of Chinook salmon runs and toxins in the water.

  2. Happy TRC day in Canada!!! Please learn about an Indigenous culture near you and how you can help the reconciliation process today.

  5. Check out this transcription effort! Audio taken from wax cylinders made in the 1940's to capture the language of old "Chinookan" but what he recorded was actually Chinook Jargon/Chinuk Wawa. Joe Peter is the Indigenous man that was providing the translation to Chinook/Chinuk.

  7. Anyone wanting to learn Chinook Wawa/Jargon or Chinook Pipa let me know we meet every Saturday morning and delve into letters written in Chinook Pipa by Indigenous people and we translate them and study how and what was written.
