The other side of the ledger An indian view of the Hudsons Bay Company

"The other side of the ledger" is an Indian view of the Hudson's Bay company.

The Hudson's Bay company's 300th anniversary celebration where Queen Elizabeth II

among the other guests was present, was no occasion for joy among the people whose

lives were tied to the trading stores. During the past 300 years, the history has been

written by white men. They have only focused on the generosity of the traders and the

benefits brought to the Indians. However, there is a sharp contrasting view from what

Indians have to say about their lot in the company's operations.

At the time of the history, Hudson's Bay company was expended over 1 million

square miles of land which is now known as Canada. The Rupert's Land at that time was

occupied by the Indians. They (Indians) believed that the land belonged to all men and

hence, the land owned by the individual was unknown. However, they failed to

recognize that the white men had felt superiority to impose power over their identities.

Hence, they just drifted bit by bit into white men's monopoly and never got out of it.

Overall, I think, the film has covered up all the basic arguments of the Indians and

has helped to understand the period and the people of that tim


The point I think was to make Indian people dependent on the H.B.C. and to

treaties were written to compel Indians to give up their rights to their land. However,

times. The English govn't has undermined the rights of Indians through the use of

Indians but was a reminding of who owned the land, money, and most of all, the power.
