The Canadian Canoe Museum
By Ai Wright & Scott Shewman
Fun fact
Voyagers
Instead of cars men back then hand canoes to try to pick up the ladies with. Had two seats one for the man and one for the women but the man would do all the rowing and the women would just sit in peace and they could just talk while they moved because the seats were facing each other.
The voyagers were the people who transported furs by canoe during the fur trade era in Canada and sometimes the northern parts of the United States. They spend most of their days traveling by canoes and or portaging when it was necessary. Their canoes were typically made from birch bark over a white cedar frame, like the one shown below.

Soap Stone
There are many different and interesting canoes at the museum. most of the canoes are different because of the different tribes and culturese canoes were also different from what resource they had to make canoes (tree, bark,and skin ). it would also show what kind of talent is in the tribes.
Well we were visiting the Museum we got the chance to do hands on work which was carving and making a soap stone Loon. the activity its self was very fun and in the end you had an amazing soap stone Loon. the reason for it was to give us a experience of what the voyagers did on free time.
