Traditional Mi'kmaq (Micmac) Culture

History and traditions

http://www.heritage.nf.ca/articles/aboriginal/mikmaq-culture.php

excerpted from a longer article:

"Today, Mi'kmaq culture has changed considerably since the days when the first European vessel arrived off the shores of Mi'kmaq country, but we should remember that all cultures, including our own, change over time, and today's Mi'kmaq are no less Indian simply because they wear the same clothes as other Canadians, drive cars, and watch television. Glooskap still lives in today's Mi'kmaq."
