First Nations people relied on the land and their ingenuity
for food, clothing, utensils, and weapons. Nothing was
wasted. When French, English, and Scottish fur traders
arrived at HBC forts, they brought copper kettles, knives,
rifles, wool blankets, flour, and salted meat to trade with
the Woodland Cree and Anishinabé for furs.
