I'm pretty sure that Wisakedjak is a Grey Jay, not a crane. - 97.116.17.128 (talk) 21:02, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Its been nearly a decade, but I studied this carefully: Morph-er not trickster

Wisakedjak is an exceedingly important figure.

Support is difficult because of the obvious events in information and education from the civilization process especially the residence schools. Having said this, I am fairly certain we are talking about an equivalent to Christ as a 'go-to' to the Creator. Going with this, trickster is inappropriate. The correct term would be 'morph-er'. As I recall, the World was flooded so Wisakedjak recruited the animals to dive from his raft to get some dirt so he could recreate the land from it. Finally the muskrat succeeded (I think) allowing Wisakedjak to morph it into land. Like Noah? I think so. Makes me wonder if there wasn't communication all along. I believe that 'trickster' was inserted by LSD-taking types who infiltrated tribal culture after doing the same to the natural and back-to-the-land cultures of the 60s.
