WOOD TRADITION IN BC
The successful use of wood by
First Nations as their prime
construction material for
shelters, canoes and all
necessary utensils of daily life
dates back as far as 10,000
years. Wood is Canada's
natural and most readily
available resource and does not
have inherent limitations. It is
our duty to exploit its potential
beyond the limited use of the
last 150 years.
