    I appreciate your comments and your logic about certain Criticisms.
    Poor Human behavior possibly misusing items or tools does not negate the value of that item making our lives better.

    Yeah, there was certainly some coming together. Take Marie-Joseph DeGuire, for example. She married Jean Etienne Wadin, whose father was apparently a professor at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland. She was Ojibwa. I can't imagine a wider cultural difference.
    Wadin was one of the co founders of the North West Company. One of their children married Governor James Douglas' boss and another the first Presbyterian minister in Lower then Upper Canada. One of their grandchildren succeeded John Strachan as Bishop of Toronto. A descendant, Norman Bethune, is history's most famous Canadian, with name recognition from 1.4 billion Chinese.

    Also I hear a lot about HBC blankets. Where in the world can a person buy an HBC blanket from a trusted source?

      Etsy and Ebay have a bunch. Do some research and look thru them till you find one in good condition in your price range. I have picked up a few myself. Good luck.
