Hudson Bay Company Swot Analysis

265 Words2 Pages

Etymology: The Hudson 's Bay Company, headquartered at Fort Nisqually, had control of this region until 1863. Company maps and journals show the company 's subsidiary, the Pugets Sound Agricultural Company, raised cattle, grain, and sheep at "Spanueh Station" on the south and east shores of "Spanueh Lake." Spanueh is the Hudson Bay Company 's spelling of the native Lushootseed spadue, which means "dug roots" referring to an area where camas and other edible roots can be found. Lushootseed underwent a loss of nasal consonants in the 1800s, so "Spanueh" simply transcribes an older pronunciation of what is now "Spadue".[3] The first white settler to take a donation claim by the lake, Henry de la Bushalier, tried to rename the lake after

  • How Did The Hudson's Land Affect Society

    The deed in and of itself was a big decision made by the company to relinquish such a large portion of its land. But with the progression of what society had deemed as “fashion”, had diverted from fur top hats and such things and the HBC no longer needed such a vast amount of land that they exclusively owned for trapping and hunting. As compensation, “The Hudson’s Bay Company may for 50 years after the surrender, claim any township or district within the Fertile Belt in which land is set out for settlement”. This meant that the company could continue to make a profit and would not lose all the power they had previously had. With the land under the new ownership of the Crown, new immigrants arrived and began to inhabit the land and the HBC recognized these people as the new customers that they would have to appeal to with their products.

  • Mille Lacs Lake Case Study

    1610 Words  | 7 Pages

    For decades, there has been tension between Native American fishermen and non-native fishermen over the fishing rights on Mille Lacs Lake. This tension has increased, particularly because of the sustainability and quality of Mille Lacs Lake, and the Supreme Court’s ruling in Minnesota against Mille Lacs Band of Chippewa Indians. The Court claimed that the Chippewa Indians retained their rights to hunt and fish on ceded lands as established by the 1837 Treaty of St. Peters. Usufruct rights are rights of enjoyment to another’s property allowing the holder to generate income from the property without obtaining ownership. This right to hunt and fish on ceded lands is further protected from state regulation by the 1837 Treaty of St. Peters.
