I'm unable to come up with a good comment. Recounting injustices men have done to each other, saddens me. God bless the ones, who lived in those days. Thank you for posting this.
Brilliant! The time is past due for us to have opened the doors for learning about our own roots in Canada. There's so much to explore and it's all interesting. Thanks for covering this. I appreciate it.
Excellent video. You're brilliant, Hammerson. I appreciate your research on historically important points in your work. I love History ❤ Thanks, Hammerson ❤❤❤
Captain Cook sure got around, didn't he? (I'm a skippy) Meares sounded like an interesting guy, at least he spoke well of the Chinese. But I just can't imagine their descendants eking out a miserable existence in the interior of Vancouver Island. Except now that I've put it in writing, maybe they did. Or maybe someone got the numbers wrong. Nootka Sound! You gotta respect Martinez the Spanish Navy officer for his manners. Great channel!
If I was 10th generation born and raised in china, would you ever consider me as chinese ? Of course not. I will always be the ferengi in your eyes. So what makes you think you are canadian ?
I'm from an island on the atlantic, and immigration has caused homeless to be at an unprecedented level, all renters are not canadian born and our cost of living is approaching a 300% increase in the last 9 years. Thanks so much
@@canadianmmaguy7511While what you are saying is absolutely true, how does that compare to the 95% of the Indigenous populations wiped out by early settlers during the conquering of the New World, many of which groups actually share genetic ties to the Chinese. The Chinese are conquering by economy, not genocide.
@@canadianmmaguy7511What about the Chinese folk that are born here and literally can't return to their ethnic country of origin because under international law, they are Canadians with no other citizenship? At best, due to Asia's strict immigration policies, they would be kicked out of "their country" after a year unless going through extensive paperwork and a good reason to stay. What do we do with those guys?
@@GrillaStyle the natives who did not have contact with norse and antibodies died from disease mostly, or else europeans would not have had such an easy time. My family came over here as irish slaves in the 1700s. *for people born here, and soon to be born here, you/they are being used to cause a national identity crisis which will divide us all. The gov isn't making programs to assimilate people properly into canadian society and instead is weaponizing mass immigration. Period. I am not against immigratiom, i think it's beautiful when done properly. Canada is not doing anything close to doing it properly, it is weaponizing it.
Have you covered the story you snuck in right at the end? The Horne Lake wild man? Great video btw very interesting! Having been to Nootka Sound it's awesome to imagine all the history there.
a local tidbit of canadiana for me. Ive been to the japanese areas on van island and I know that there is an old rail line there. Im just strating your video. i am sure I will be more informed in the next 20 mins
So basically the Nuu-chah-nulth (Nootka) people killed their own relatives. As mentioned the Chinese married local Indian women and because they were successful of taking care of their offspring. Then grew in numbers, the pure Nootka saw them as a threat and killed them. That is fvcked up.
going much earlier I remember a CBC radio show about native languages in BC and one show about the Squamish language talked about the many words they had that seemed to be Chinese
HP, you might find this story from Bill Proctor's book "Full Moon Flood Tide" also interesting. It concerns a Chinese logging camp in Greenway Sound on North Broughton Island in the 1930s. On page 128 Bill Proctor wrote, " One night the men and their families packed up their belongings, shot the horses, got in their boats and took off. No one ever knew why they left - it is a mystery to this day. But over the years there have been many reports of a very odd event. If you are in the sound just above Carter Pass on a bright moonlit night, you might see the huge creature that is reported to have come to the surface of the sea and roared like a lion."
An interesting thing that I ponder on. My mom and dad are from south west coast of nfld, they come from generations established in the late 1700’s and early 1800’s. When my mom was a young lady living in Brampton Ont, she was have supper at a Chinese restaurant, the man who owned it asked her if she was from the north, my mom said no I live here. He said again I mean are you from the north. As it turns out he had meant from northern China, she apparently fooled this Chinese man, as she she much resembled the people from there. This had also happened to her two more times, someone from China thinking she was from there. We do believe that there is mi’kmaq in our generations from cape breton, I’ve also watched a documentary once talking about how they figured the Chinese had set up trading ports and settlements with them, as their dress and the way the settlement was built resembles the way Chinese did so back then, or my mom just has some recessive gene coming out 😂
Remember the Northern Indians didnt have a written language and thats because they are originaly from present day Mongolia who up to 500 years ago did not have a written language Until the Chines came to town

This such terrible writing, so cliché written, I can have to suspect this was written by Ai. It takes forever to actually say anything worth hearing. Use your own damn words, not such banalities which cause disbelief and undermine trust in this story telling..

Thank you for covering Chinese history in Canada.
Fascinating Hammerson. I was born and raised in BC and have learned so much about its history and people from you. Keep them coming! Thanks.
Thank you for the work you do Hammerson ❤ much appreciated

Great channel!
Englishman River Falls, and Little Qualicum Falls are well worth a visit, especially after a day or two of heavy rain. Spectacular !!
Thanks for sharing
Thank you, as a Chinese Canadian these videos mean a lot to me.

comment for the algorithm
Mind unveiled did a few very interesting videos on ancient Chinese architecture in North America.
Been fishing in Nooka my whole life. Had heard spain and Britain almost went to war over it but never knew any details👍

#Minjian - Like NS is Celtic & Quebec is French, Minjian 1850s is Chinese
Cumberland has an old Chinese camp.
Thanks
You can bet they were killed or enslaved by the natives....especially if the land purchase was disputed by the chief
Sounds reasonable
The music is putting me to sleep

Canada is a multi European cultural country

I don't believe in ghosts 😅
I'm sorry but, when talking about diversity why show a turbin? Why not another prominent race with far more credibility?
I grew up in Tahsis.
De døde for mange år siden 🤣🇩🇰
I think you need to go to China .They have writings going back 1200 years about traveling in large ships going to North America

Sometimes it is hard for me ,not to think Canada, USA & mexico are all one
I don't care about the US or your friend's book!
Chinese Indian Tribe is my Band's name.
Crap. Don't post such garbage videos to keep your RUclips channel monetized. 😭💀😂
Remember the Northern Indians didnt have a written language and thats because they are originaly from present day Mongolia who up to 500 years ago did not have a written language Until the Chines came to town
Diarrhea
Bring back the Chinese Exclusion Act.
I concur
Canadian Politicians are too busy selling your country out from under you to them to do _anything_ to hinder the silent Chinese invasion.
I'd compromise with a Trump 2024 victory. 😂

Suck it up.
Only right wing fanatics are such snowflakes that they are actually offended by ads. How pathetic!

She's checking all of the boxes.. and definitely doesn't care about the American citizens.. only the illegals.🤔
