Collection search - Une partie de lacrosse

Titre fondé sur la légende suivante tirée du photoreportage de l'ONF: When Christopher Columbus discovered America, the Indians of the Six Nations were already banging away at a game they called haggataway! The French settlers called this sport lacrosse because the curved stick used by the players resembled a bishop's crozier in shape. This rugged sport, played outdoors and indoors, was regarded for a long time as Canada's national game. The only lacrosse stick manufacturing plant in Canada is owned and operated by Mohawk Indians, at Cornwall, in Ontario.
