You tube Video on Potlatching

http://www.bing.com/videos/watch/video/potlatch-scenes/3699ae0b7364e33417723699ae0b7364e3341772-136485995087?q=Potlatching&FROM=LKVR5&GT1=LKVR5&FORM=LKVR


There is the above link to watch a portion of the potlatching ceremony. Something that was not mentioned in the video was that potlatching was also banned in the united states as well, in the late nineteenth, for the same reasons as the Canadians. Some more information can be found on the link below.
