more great Canadian cards!

I did a trade with a Canadian member of Postcrossing some time back and her lovely cards sat on my desk waiting to be added to my blog. These are nice cards, quite different from the usual ones Canadians are able to find in their shops and they are a nice addition to my collection!!

In the US we have the Fancy Shawl Dance done by young women but this is different and the card offers little information other than indicating these are members of the Ojibway tribe dancing near Thunder Bay Ontario.

A recreated camp scene is featured here...Ojibway women participate in an encampment located at Old Fort William, Thunder Bay Ontario. This historical park celebrates the 1800s fur trade which included blended French/Native families. Ojibway interpreters help park visitors understand First Nations culture including the tree bark homes known as wigwam.
