A truly inspiring journey that will pave the way for future teams, not only from Haida Gwaii, but from rural communities across the province. </i></b></span></p><p><span style="color: red;"><b><i>Haida Gwaii has long punched above its weight in so many ways, and basketball is no exception to that rule.
