[edit] "Yoho" is from Cree?

Now why did I grow up thinking it was in Kootenay/Ktunaxa or Blackfoot or some other language from the immediate area? I know there were Cree in the employ of the HBC/NWC, but this seems like a long way from Cree home turf for this placename, which AFAIK was conferred long before the railway (and its implicit introduction of aboriginal names from outisde the region, e.g. Minnekhada, the old G-G's retreat in Port Coquitlam).Skookum1 15:01, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
