Peace River Region, British Columbia, Canada CM11-17

Description : The arrival of the Hudsons Bay Company in Eastern Canada in 1670 eventually had a major impact in the Peace River area. Guns made their way westward as trade goods and the Cree began to push the Beaver further west. The Beaver in turn pushed the Sekani deep into the Rocky Mountain Trench in the mid-1700s. A truce was eventually agreed to by the Cree and the Beaver and the great river they called Unchagah [Peace] became the boundary between their hunting territories.
