Several years ago, Blackfoot elder; Leroy Little Bear, was making a presentation in Banff Alberta about the fact that animals used to talk to people, or that people could understand animals. Part riddle, part prophecy, Little Bear ended by stating that: ‘he supposed they (the fish) still talk, albeit at a slowed pace and tempo; were a person to wait long enough they would undoubtably detect the tiniest of murmurs, or bubbles from the fish’. This notion of fish talking to humans was reiterated by Christie Belcourt in her 2007 painting: ‘What the Sturgeon Told Me’. Belcourt describes a dream she had wherein a sturgeon visited her to convey a message about the dams and disruption of traditional waterways.
