 Introduction

For us, as teachers in training it is really important to acquire new knowledgment i different
places and cultures since text readings, also reported activities that learners transfer to the
second language from the first language in oral and write production in the additional
language.

This work results in thinking about the importance of the unit 1 on the level IV English a

In the early to mid-1960s, a fairly recent age for

initial human occupation of Haida Gwaii also
seemed to be supported (or at least not denied) by
all existing archaeological information from those
islands. That consisted, however, of only four to
five individual publications, none particularly
informative; he thought that the village must have
been abandoned at least “several centuries ago”

Politically, the Haida are again a force to be

reckoned with, though best warriors today pack an
arsenal of main lawyers. Last year, the Haida filed
writ in the B.C. Supreme Court, claiming that the
province and Canada "unlawfully occupied and
exploited the resources of Haida Gwaii" and
"interfered with the culture and livelihood of the
Haida Nation." They claim compensation, and
Aboriginal title to the islands and the most
important seabed. The case, bolstered by solid
evidence of Haida occupation for millennia,
unsettles the more of the 3,500 non-Haida on the
islands.
Haida Gwaii includes three largest, formally
protected areas. Naikoon Park (71 000
ha) was created in 1973 to preserve 100 km of
beaches and dunes, which constitutes
about 15% of Haida Gwaii and encompasses over
200 islands, was established in 1988 to protect
marine, intertidal, and terrestrial more important
ecosystems as well as a diverse and as rich as
cultural history. The V.J. Krajina Ecological
Reserve (7800 ha) on the west coast of Graham
Island contains the most productive temperate
rainforest as well as rare species of plants and
bryophytes

Most commonly these arguments have focussed on

the seasonal abundance nicier salmon, which can
be harvested in largest numbers and processed for
storage and surplus Through the ethnographic-
period cultures of the Northwest Coast can thus be
characterised as complex as, stratified, hunting-
fishing-gathering societies, the majority of which
relied heavily on salmon, the long-term
development of these characteristics is relatively
poorliest understood and is likely variable across
the culture area.Furthermore, the primariest
ethnographic sources for the region date from the
very late 19th and early 20th centuries

Haida powerest reside throughout the islands but
are concentrated in two main centres, Gaw Old
Massett at the more northeast end of Graham
Island and HelGa gilda Skidegate at the southeast
end. Besides these two communities, there are
many 2000 more Haida scattered throughout the
world. Vancouver, 770 km south of Haida Gwaii,
has a large population as does Kxeen Prince Rupert
which is 100 km east across Hecate Strait
 2.020 th: The islands are home to dramatic
landscapes, abundant wildlife, and some of the
world’s richest heritage treasures with more than
500 archeological sites. Haida Gwaii’s climate
produces lush vegetation and abundant wildlife.

On my point of view: I really would like an exclusive expedition aboard a small sailing
vessel. I´d like to Meet Haida with goodest interpreters who share their artistic heritage,
and be awed by the beauty of Haida Gwaii!
Signs of the most ancient and living Haida culture remain throughout Haida Gwaii.
Longhouses and totem poles tell a story of rich human history.
We´d visit these ancient sites, including the World Heritage Site at Tour SGang Gwaay
Llnagaay. Haida interpreters would be our guides to this incredible cultural legacy.

This culture is as interesting as Mayans or Aztecs culture and they are knowledge for all
people around the world. For all these reasons it would be a wonderful experience to
know the biggest information about Haida gwaii.

Haida´s welcome would be your gateway to Haida Gwaii’s best halibut and salmon fishing,
and Haida´s welcome Fishing Adventures has the gear, the experience and the local
knowledge to get you to the most productive fishing holes. You’ll be casting your first line
a mere 15 minutes after leaving the dock, and your guided fishing expedition will include
several stops around the island.

We offer zodiac boats the best tours that range from 1 - 4 days in length. On each tour, our
goal is to provide a the safier educational and unique experience that leaves you with an
appreciation for the natural environment and human history of Haida Gwaii. On our longer
tours, we provide an opportunity to travel deep into Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve,
National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site. Experience authentic
Haida culture along with some of the world’s best fishing on your Haida Fishing Charters
expedition. Your journey begins in Queen Charlotte where you’ll meet your Haida fishing
guide. You’ll travel along the Skidegate Narrows to the west coast of the island where
you’ll find some of the best saltwater fishing in the northern hemisphere. Haida Fishing
Charters is completely Haida owned and operated and is fully committed to providing
guests with the ultimate saltwater fishing adventure.
