Very dreadful expressions are also by draymen and others in addressing their horses. What can possibly induce a human being to say “Gee woot!” “‘Mather way!” or “Woa!” not to mention the atrocious “Kim aup!” of the ignorant and degraded costermonger.

I acknowledge that I live in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq nation. This territory is covered by a series of treaties of peace and friendship which recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established rules for an ongoing relationship between nations. We are all treaty people. As a guest on this land, I affirm that I have a duty to be mindful of my environmental impact and to reflect on and hold colonial systems accountable.
