[BCMA] Search for Metis in local BC archives

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hello Mr. Desjarlais.

Prof. Michel Bouchard at Univ. of Norhtern BC in Prince George has done a lot of work on Métis in northern BC. I’ve put in c.c.

We’d love to hear back on what you find.

Best of luck in your research.
