A productive borrowing from Micmac through French is toboggan, a runnerless wooden sled still used by children. |
The Micmac have been able to salvage some of their traditional culture in political decision-making, religion and language. |
They are part of the Algonquian language family that, in Quebec, includes the Montagnais-Naskapi, Micmac, Malecite, and Abenaki. |
Within the forest there were strange people, the indigenous Micmac, as well as large and potentially dangerous animals like bear and moose. |
Then they found the bag that Micmac John had left there with the fur in it. |
The programme will include an excursion to the archives of Acadia University, as well as a workshop on Silas Rand's Legends of the Micmac. |
