Who needs more totem poles?

When travelling in Canada along the west-coast, you travel on the territories of First Nations that built totem poles as welcome poles in their villages or landmark of their long houses etc. 

We really enjoyed the many examples we saw in Whistler, Vancouver, Victoria, Tofino and a whole series in the totem capital: Duncan.
