Culturally Responsible Pathway Almost Complete In Vancouver Island Park
“Going in the right direction on the trail.” That’s the literal translation of the Nuu-chah-nulth name — ʔapsčiik t̓ašii — for a new paved pathway in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, but there are layers of possible meaning. The name can refer to a person’s personal life journey or to being mindful of the environment and all living things. When the name is used collectively, First Nations Elders say “the land we walk on is made from the dust of our ancestors — in our life journey, we walk it carefully, respectfully, with humility and dignity.”
