Prince William and Princess Catherine
Meet Canada's Aboriginal Groups
Prince William and his new bride Princess Catherine have met with aboriginal groups in Canada's far north who still refer affectionately to his ancestor
Queen Victoria as "grandmother." The indigenous Dene people greeted Britain's royal couple, Prince William and Princess Catherine with dancing and singing to the beat of caribou skin drums in Yellowknife, in the Northwest Territories.
Later, Prince William and Princess Catherine were to meet Canadian Rangers, who patrol the far reaches of Canada's Arctic, as well as aboriginal elders, and maybe go canoeing. Prince William and Princess Catherine were also to be taught aboriginal hand games, historically played to gamble for bullets, furs, dogs, toboggans or match sticks, and which involve using elaborate hand gestures, and the hiding and guessing of objects.
