"It is not down in any map; true places never are. -- Herman Melville, in Moby Dick Are we supposed to be nice and give you our traplines so that you can put your pipeline and benefit other people? ... These traplines are for us, so we keep them. Why cannot you guys understand that? ... I guess you don't really understand that this is our way of life and always will be. Clarence Apsassin Blueberry River Indian Reserve Public Hearings, December 1980.
