DescriptionSt. Joseph's Church, Kamloops.jpg |
English: The next morning we boarded the train for our second and final day on the Rocky Mountaineer up to Jasper. Overnight our train had shrunk (the remainder of it presumably put in sidings) and turned round and we headed back up past St Joseph's Church which we'd been past the day before.
This historic church was built by Catholic missionaries who came to convert those pesky "heathen" first nation people. It has an extensive graveyard and it's been found that many of the graves are empty. The First Nations previously cremated their dead but the Catholic missionaries told them this wasn't good and proper and made them bury them instead. The rumour is that whilst people were burried in the graves, they were dug up over night and cremated instead by the locals. For anyone not familiar with the term (as I wasn't and I guess many Europeans won't be), First Nations as a term was introduced in the 1980s to describe the aborigonal people of Canada who weren't Inuit or those of a mixed First Nation/European descent. It's similar to the "Native American" term used in the US |
