Ojibway Indians of British Columbia


Exactly how the ojibway indians of british columbia made it there is puzzling! They invaded the western portion of North America after they became aware of the seven fires prophecy. Anyway, at the present time there are Ojibway Indians living in British Columbia, but nearly all have been forced by the whites to lose their Anishinabe identity. There is recognized Anishinabe people in british columbia. They are referred to as the Saulteaux people, but the whites are forcing them also to lose their identity by claiming that they are also of Cree origins. Then we have the other supposedly Cree people who are sharing the same Reserves with the Beaver Athabascan tribe. They are really Anishinabek who have been forced by the whites to lose their Anishinabe identity. Then we have the Algonquian-Wakashan Language Family of british columbia to not ignore. That means that the Anishinabe people live throughout the province of British Columbia.
