Scope and content | French edition. Reminder to readers of how large the Kamloops district is and also how widespread and remote the people are in the region. How they are often found in tiny communities of 50 to 200 people; circuit he must visit is 700 to 800 kilometres, including 1,500 Aboriginals, belonging to 12 to 15 tribes. LeJeune says that it takes four months to make the circuit as he stays one week in each location. Community members typically see the Priest three times a year. | |
