David Bodley Snuneymuxw Knowledge Keeper connects youth with cedar

In the centre of the shop sits a large cedar canoe filled with rolls upon rolls of cedar bark, which Bodley mostly harvests himself. The canoe is surrounded by tables adorned with copper shields, cedar hats and bracelets, wooden paddles, Bodley’s photographs, and beads of devil’s club and blue glass.
