BC Chinook Jargon: Can You Speak British Columbian?
Chinook Jargon is an aboriginal trade language that was spoken widely throughout British Columbia and the West Coast. By 2014, there was only one speaker left in the province who had learned it from elders. Jay Powell asked his students to revitalize this language so the chain of learning would not be broken. One of his students, Sam Sullivan, initiated the BC Chinook Jargon project and website bcchinookjargon.ca .
