The seven peoples are the #Kwʼamutsun, #Lʼumlʼumuluts, #Qwumʼyiqunʼ, #Hinupsu, #Tlʼulpalus, #Hwulqwselu, and #Sʼamunaʼ. The location is #Quʼwutsun, now called Cowichan Valley.
"Field note from a constituent in #CowichanValley: BCNDP are currently anti-labour, anti-environtment, anti-indigenous. In 2024 they governed centrist, but from the campaign onward appear to have shifted far to the right of centre. We will see at year's end, but it looks to me like they will fall mid-Conservative."
Market day! You know you're in good with the wild mushroom woman when she throws a couple extra fat chanterelles in your bag. (I 🖤 the mushroom woman. She's French Canadian w/ a mess of grey & purple hair, & looks exactly like you'd expect a woman who lives in the woods gathering mushrooms to look.)
Also shopping for Thanksgiving next weekend, which is why I now have 4 dozen eggs. 1 dozen are for ice cream.
Damn, I love living here.
