After being stolen over a century ago, a totem pole at the Royal B.C. Museum in British Columbia has been awakened by members of the Nuxalk Nation and is beginning its journey home.

' "There is a really warm feeling in my heart," said Mara Pootlass, who has family connections to the pole. "I wanted to cry for joy because I could feel the spirit." '

The amount of artistry and skill that went into the creation of each of these totems is not lost on me. Each one is a story of a family, a clan, a nation, a people.

I was deeply grateful to visit them on my trip to Vancouver this weekend. Thank you.
