Gwaʼsala


The Gwa'sala are one of the main groups of the Kwakwaka'wakw peoples, now joined with the 'Nak'waxda'xw in the Gwa'sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Nations band government. Their traditional home and still-territory is around Smith Sound and Smith Inlet, while that of the 'Nakwaxda'xw is at Blunden Harbour farther south on the north side of Queen Charlotte Strait.
