Tobique on video

Members of the Tobique First Nation in New Brunswick are learning how to operate video equipment so they can preserve their language, Maliseet. The 20-week project will record Tobique elders telling stories in their native tongue. Since few band members under the age of 50 can understand or speak Maliseet, organizers hope the video project will help save this interesting language.
