A couple of great websites!
When I first clicked on the First Nations of Canada link I was taken to a totally different but related site, http://www.johnco.com/firstnat/ instead of http://www.aboriginalcanada.com/firstnation/ . I didn’t realize at first that it was the wrong site so as I was checking it out I was asking why this site was included as it appeared to be just a list of all the different Native American tribes in Canada. Although not very informative, I did enjoy it because I like maps and geography which this site had for each province of Canada. The location of each tribe was indicated and a list of contact information including address and phone # was given. I find this to be very valuable if you need to do research on individual tribes.

The actual site also has a wealth of information including the First Nations of each region in Canada and the 3 main native cultures. The best feature is an extensive list of festivals, sites and events that showcase the culture of the First Nations of Canada. There is something to do for every age group almost year-round. If you are looking for a great vacation you could travel across 1 or more Canadian Provinces, have fun and learn more about Native culture.

This site belongs on the list as it provides opportunities for non-natives to learn more about Native culture in a non-threatening way. What better way to learn than to have fun and excitement while doing so. Actually being involved with these events and sites is better than dry book learning any day, especially when it doesn’t seem like anything more than a great vacation. I may just take my family to Canada to visit a few events!
