Tansi, ahnee and hello. I've grown to love the soft light of morning. No wonder, really. Throughout our traditional stories and legends the coming of light represents awareness, enlightenment, knowledge. Maybe it's the vestiges of those teachings that attracts me to this time of day or perhaps it's the freshness and energy that exists here which calls me.

Either way, morning and the coming of light to the world is a special, transcendent time for me.

The term "Indian " was used to describe the Indigenous people that our European discoverers stumbled upon so many years ago. Although incorrect, it was a term that remained as a term of reference for the brown-skinned people who occupied the Americas.

Initially, all "brown-skinned" people were eligible to be included in this designated group. With familiarity and partial acceptance to the occupation of Europeans, the Indian people gradually began mixing with their European counterparts.

The disappearance of a few hundred thousand fish in the Fraser River last fall has stirred up more than just concern for the future of a natural resource. It has polarized much of the Canadian fisheries industry over the rights of Natives to harvest food fish alongside commercial, non-Native fisheries.

And it has reignited tempers on both sides of the issue of Native rights to resource management and land use - in short, the issue of Native self-determination.
