spent time speaking with members of the local community as they received gifts in Bella Bella

Chief Marilyn Slett told them: 'On behalf our nation we welcome you and we thank you for being here as part of the healing that we are undertaking. As part of our....feasting system we would like to give our guests a gift.'

First the blankets and then the 'dancing vests'

- worn by men, women and children during traditional celebrations - were placed over the couple' shoulders.

'We use these blankets to wrap the spirits of our ancestors around you and to unite your spirits together with ours,' they were told.

'In our way our blankets encompass the sprites of our ancestors, our history and our culture, our stories of who we are and where we come from.'

The blankets were printed with the outline of a grizzly bear, trees to represent the forest that surrounds the Heiltsuk community and local flora and fauna.

'The design represents all life, not just animals but us as humans. There is no hierarchy in the importance of life, we are all dependent on one another,' Chief Slett said

--------------------------------

☆スピーチ☆

"It gives me great pleasure to be here today as the Great Bear Rainforest is officially committed to the Queen's Commonwealth Canopy."

"By CHOGM 2018, it is expected that all 53 countries of the Commonwealth will have joined the QueensCanopy ..."

"... creating a global network of forests that will benefit indigenous communities, wildlife and tourism now, and into the future."

"The establishment of the Canopy is a loud and unambiguous statement ... that nature is fundamental to the health of our societies."

"Her Majesty is immensely grateful to you, and the people of Canada, for the leadership you have shown in making this contribution."

The Queen's Commonwealth Canopy

is a unique network of forest conservation initiatives, which involves all 53 countries of the Commonwealth. It presents a rare opportunity to unite the whole Commonwealth family and save one of the world’s most important natural habitats – forests. Creating a pan-Commonwealth network of forest conservation projects, the QCC will mark Her Majesty the Queen’s service to the Commonwealth while conserving indigenous forests for future generations.
