National Aboriginal Day is a day that recognizes and celebrates the vibrant culture of the First Nations Peoples of Canada. In Northern British Columbia, in the remote first nations community of Old Masset, the Haida commemorated the occasion through a traditional feast with singing, drumming and dancing.

This video is my first attempt at using Premiere Pro and is a little rough, but it gives an accurate account of the atmosphere on the day. If you wish to read more about National Aboriginal Day in Old Masset visit: “National Aboriginal Day in Old Masset: The Potlatch”
