THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
Joachim Lafleur worked on the west side of the Rocky Mountains for years, and had a few amusing quirks that made the traders laugh. Still, in spite of that, he played an important role in the history of the HBC in the west. #TheHBCBrigades #WestOfTheMountains #WAHistory #Journeys https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/joachim-lafleur/ -

THE HBC BRIGADES: CULTURE, CONFLICT, & PERILOUS JOURNEYS
Haranguing, or speechmaking, was an Indigenous tradition practiced by every First Nations Chief anywhere on the continent. It was such a powerful act that the tradition was borrowed by the HBC men, and used to encourage the First Nations to work harder for them. It was theatre, and the Indigenous people enjoyed the performance.... #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/harangue/ -

THE YORK FACTORY EXPRESS: FORT VANCOUVER TO HUDSON BAY, 1826-1849
The name of the so-called Sioux Island Rapid was a mistake: the word Sioux sounds the same as Sault, which is a word that the French speaking voyageurs would have been unfamiliar with. However, the rather famous man who painted those rapids did not understand what the Canadiens were trying to tell him. #YorkFactoryExpress #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/sioux-island-rapid/ -

As Anderson made his way down the Fraser River from #Kamloops to #FortLangley, he saw in the First Nations villages something that looked like goats, but which turned out to be the Salish wool dogs from which the Indigenous people wove their blankets. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/salish-wool-dog/ -

When First Nations people travelled around their territory they used accidental bridges such as fallen trees, or created their own bridges of deer-hide ropes and planks of wood that hung down from the tops of high cliffs. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #WestOfTheMountains https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/native-bridges/ -

One of Alexander Anderson's companions on his expedition to #FortLangley from #Kamloops in 1847 was Michel Fallardeau, a mixed-blood man who arrived in the territory west of the Rockies in the 1827 Express led by Edward Ermatinger. Fallardeau died a somewhat mysterious death, caused by a beating from an HBC gentleman. #Journeys #TheHBCBrigades #WestOfTheMountains https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/michel-fallardeau/ -
