“I had just moved from Williams Lake to Vancouver at 19 and I was really trying to find out who I was, not only as a person but culturally as well. I was also dating a great First Nations girl at the time and she was really pushing culture into my life. I also saw the result of colonization and assimilation back home and I wanted to give a reason for my people to be proud of themselves. I think First Nations people tend to take the negatives first, but we should always be focusing on the positives; we’re still here.” — TREVOR MACK ON HIS INSPIRATION FOR THE BLANKETING
