I'm just doing my family history in isolation! All three of my Great Grandfathers were Captain's of ships! My GGGrandfather came to explore the Salish Seas in 1858 from PEI! He owned many Sealing Schooners & Steamships including the famous SSBeaver that sunk at Prospect Point in the late 1800's! He married my Grandmother a Chief's daughter from the Haida Gwaii! Tutsumutsa Edenshaw aka The Warren William's was interned to Kuper Island during the Spanish Flu! She still is the oldest native today to die on Vancouver Island in 1931 at 104! Thank you for sharing this interesting history!
Interesting history. Refrain from using exclamation points on every sentence.
@Rina Not to say old and up late at night....lol
Keep up the good work and keep providing us with excellent documentaries.
In the '70s the mantra was "eat more fish and less red meat, it's healthier." Back then a pound of fish was about 1/3 the cost of a pound of beef or pork, now a pound of a cheap fish like talapia is about $9/lb. in my area and the only way to find cod or the better grade of fish is processed in fish planks or sticks.
Okay I just skipped through, and could not find any reference of any flu epidemic.

Minimal references to it. Mostly Click bait.
Was a slight mention , thats about it .
@@zelliatorsema9579 your right. It’s dumb they shouldn’t name it what they did.
Dollar Store Neil Gaiman: "Does it make you feel guilty to eat a fish that's considered a symbol of overfishing?"
Me: "No. Now fuck off and let me eat in peace."
Influenzas, Fevers, Colds, And Allergies are not to be easily dismissed or passed
@Pat Larimer I mean your not really wrong. And then you have drugs like weed that are illegal, yet more man made drugs kill people per year.
The title is totally deceptive.
Fabulous photography! Beautiful landscapes!
Zoonotic diseases/pandemics can be greatly reduced some eradicated but humans can't stop the needless exploitation/abuse of animals.
That would literally just make the problem worse.
This is a saddening episode, from start to finish. In terms of fishing, a lot of (majority) European... and some Chinese/ Japanese ships would illegally fish in the pacific oceans closest to where I was born that school populations were severely affected and felt by local fisherman. The style of commercial fishing that was/ done using nets by big ships is unsustainable, it literally scoops up everything in its path and in the 80’s they use to sometimes do dynamite fishing which killed off everything.
And the European perspective of “civility” And cultural conformity has eradicated many of our first nations people and still affecting the tribes who have survived to this day... Claiming of forested areas for farming, missionaries and tourism. There are some countries and organisations that are helping preserve first nations people/ rights but it's not consistent and many governments ignore the injustices, due to profits being made with land acquisitions/ corruption with the use of donations.
When you lose your language, you often lose your identity.
Thanks 🎅
So tragic. You'd think we would have learned something.
Some of us did, that you cant stop a diaease.
@@MrLoobu preach!
Greatest relic indeed! 🖖
I guess all the people who say flu is no big deal need to stop.
I thought this was meant to be about a flu pandemic in the past. First ten minutes nothing but fishing. Dissapointing. I'm giving up.
Tragic but should but that in title
34:16 - The most interesting moment of this film for me. Eventually the state he envisioned as a boy - one without organized religion - will come to pass for humanity, but i think that time is still several centuries, perhaps even a millennia or two, in the future (assuming humanity survives that long).
I find you very successful💐💐💐🌷🌷🌷👍👍👍
Was here for the truamatic native devastating losses and yet it changes to talk about fish. Which is unrelated.
Living here in Arizona they remind me of Mormons considering how important family is to them
Great programme but why in hell's name do we have to be reminded about history hit all the time????
youre jocking, right...
british peoples' inability to pronounce any words in spanish never ceases to make me laugh
Some people`s inability to form proper sentences (no capital letters and no punctuation) never ceases to make me laugh.

There was no full understanding of germs and viruses and that they were transmissible at the time this took place. Assuming that people were deliberately harmed by infecting them is ignorant.
No it was intentional. In Brazil, settlers exterminated entire tribes by contaminating toys, which were going to give to indigenous children, with measles.
"Viruses were initially discovered in the 1890s. Eventually, a "golden era" of bacteriology ensued," And that was among the scientific community, hardly the average man and woman on the street. Feel free to spout what ever nonsense you like, but real time facts points solidly to the general population being completely in the dark as to how diseases were spread. 'Bad Air' was what they thought caused illness, they might as well have blamed farting. Germ theory to the average person was thought to be a matter of personal hygiene which varied greatly from culture to culture. Look it up. The first antibiotic wasn't discovered until 1928 and wasn't even widely used on people until 1942.
They knew it was contagious. We even have written proof. Historians have looked into these genocides and concluded that it was intentional. Don't try to rewrite history.
This is why you have to be careful with "historical" documentaries, especially with leftist leanings
@@epicadus8722 Solavita is correct.People,including physicians did think that miasma or bad air was the cause of disease so millions of lay people certainly beileved this too.These epidemics that wiped out indigenous people were not started intentionally.
This is sickening
everyone of colour brown or black or asian had some problems with the white man
How can you visit the last remaining members of a tribe that was wiped out??? You can’t have it both ways🤷🏼♀️
"A" tribe was wiped out - she is simply the last full blooded indian, of a different tribe.
In Argentina, people eat steak... but in China's over fished waters there isn't enough squid, thus the Chinese names on the squid boats...
For a country that is 90% landlocked, they get WAY too much meat from the ocean. A cultural shift to goat, sheep, and beef and away from dogs and seafood would be a good idea. Ijs, livestock is easier and cheaper to grow than fish and puppers.
China is not 90% landlocked.
China is landlocked? Argentina? Nope on both counts.
Um... look up china's coastal land by square kilometer and it's overall landmass... I said "90% landlocked" not "completely landlocked" or even just "landlocked".
Get your monocles checked.

33:18- REALLY enjoyed this right up until the moment our wise host describes how he had always hoped that religion would have been a thing of the past by now and the world would be filled with tolerance and light. Sound like tolerance and light to you?
Yes because even today christianity=intolerance and darkness!
I grew up religious; while there are some amazing religious people and groups, unfortunately the big shots (catholic church mainly) have spread so much hatred and poison, to people who's only crime was being born the way they are. I'm still religious, but I believe that we should not cherry pick and use it as an excuse for hate
@@SL-yt7qq Weird. How many Christians do you know?
@@pentagrin4157 Right. But cherry picking who we decide to hold responsible for evils of their ancestors and labeling an entire group based off of leadership wrong doing is ok though? I think I understand what you were saying here, but would it be different if he had said, “I really thought that we’d have gotten rid of the Jews by now” or “Geez, I can’t believe they allow blacks in white schools these days.” Intolerance is intolerance. His comment was woefully ignorant.
@@heatherleonbruno3263 my father was a Baptist preacher!
So the message of the gospel is a death sentence. Nice.
Wait... like the Christian gospel?
Dude, the last bit of the bible is literally about a sky wizard destroying the planet.
But first we get to have balls of eyes and wings come down and flay us while everything catches fire, so that's pretty cool in a fucked up tumblr Manga sort of way.
We humans are animals. Full stop.
4:52 nice, just say "man" without saying who. Anyone know anything about the mass Asian, specifically Chinese and Japanese fishing fleets that local fishermen complain about but the international community only has a problem with if its Japanese whalers. The lack of knowledge and propaganda to western countries is THICK
This man believes in a religion. Darwinism. And it effects his whole outlook.
Well said
I'm not a great fish eater and programs like this make me less so.
LOL!!! Fish are monogamous? Hello! This is a science program, not science fiction! I know you all want to say capitalism and omnivorie is evil but using this to make a point just makes you look foolish.
More like fishes are serial monogamists.
Dolphins are really tasty, don't care for tuna though !
