Extractions: Travel British Columbia Accommodations Canada British Columbia Northern BC British Columbia's north is a vast wilderness of grizzly bears and glaciers, ancient totems and raw rugged beauty. Experience firsthand the region's rich aboriginal heritage, witness the mesmerizing spell of the Northern Lights and realize how Northern British Columbia is a land of myths and legends come into reality. Northern British Columbia is a land of myths and legends. Out of the vast land of white water, creeping glaciers and dense, ancient forests come tales of a wilderness steeped in mystery and adventure. The North is a land where ancient totems loom in the forests and aboriginal culture is not just vibrant, but alive and well. It is a place where humble grizzly bears shamble along creeks and trophy salmon hurl themselves upstream. The North is a long-lost land of dinosaurs, a place where the Northern Lights mesmerize the most hardened travellers and the people still live off of the land. The stuff of legends and tales all around the world, Northern British Columbia's mystique comes from its enormity and close ties with the wilderness. As a region it is largely undeveloped and populated by small communities nestled amongst steep mountains.

Seated at the lap of the Pacific Ocean and at the feet of the Coast Mountains, Vancouver is a world-class city of theatres, five-star restaurants and ethnic diversity. The people are friendly and accommodating and play host to visitors seeking a taste of West Coast cuisine and culture .

Folklore: What Is It?
A definition and explanation of folklore, with examples.Category Society Folklore of hardship and humour of british columbia's lesser known the Morris Dancing traditionsof british immigrants and sharing another culture's folklore transcends
http://www.folklore.bc.ca/Whatsfolk.htm

Extractions: R ichard M. Dorson was the pre-eminent professor of folklore until his recent death. In a 1960 critique of Dorson's book American Folklore a Harvard professor of American Civilisation wrote that folklore was, "The most sentimental, and the most anti-intellectual scholarly discipline in America today." T folklore F F olklore is common to all people. Understanding, appreciating and sharing another culture's folklore transcends race, colour, class, and creed more effectively than any other single aspect of our lives and, as an element of our past and present society it is something we can all relate to. Its value is no less than any other part of our history and heritage and as such must be documented and preserved as a legacy for our future. T hat being said, it is almost impossible to give a succinct definition of folklore. I t is relatively easy to create an operational definition - one that describes folklore on the basis of ones own, personal interests. For instance, oral literature is one of the aspects of folklore, and by oral literature we mean such things as legends, tales, proverbs, sayings, dialect speech and folksongs. But if you are only interested in collecting proverbs your definition of folklore may be somewhat restricted.

History Of Vancouver Island, British Columbia,Canada

http://www.vancouverisland.com/History/

Extractions: Saturna, Galiano and Estevan have exotic Spanish derivation, while Cook, Douglas, Chatham and Cavendish hearken back to English discovery and governance. Indian names like Cowichan, Songhees, Haida and Sooke (T'Sou-ke Nation) come from an Aboriginal population that has inhabited the Island since the ice age. If you stare out at the smoky Sooke Hills on a misty day, or visit Goldstream Park during the salmon run in November, it is easy to imagine the life of the First Nations people on the Island prior to European arrival. In the Rainforest, where old growth areas have been preserved, one gets a glimpse of the past, unadulterated by the changes wrought in this century.
