The indigenous collection on the first floor of Rom shows a country that’s resilient under duress. It showcases a range of tools and clothes of indigenous people in Canada. It tells the story of getting by and survival. The delicate patterns on their clothes reveal a deeply entrenched mentality about money, working hard is what makes money go around. The focus on the North Pole has made the question about energy and oil primary concern of the exhibition. How will Canadians survive without the oil economy and industry? Etc.
