Chimeda - We are paddling; youth environmental and cultural learning canoe trip project wrapped up on Canada Day 2015. The project was a partnership between Kitigan Zibi First Nation, local community members in Chelsea/Wakefield QC, the Canadian Canoe Foundation and the Centre For Indigenous Environmental Resources. 5 Algonquin youth from Kitigan Zibi (the reserve 1 hour north from Wakefield) and 5 non-indigenous youth from Wakefield and Chelsea paddled the Gatineau River together from Maniwaki to Ottawa from June 26-July 1st, 2015, meeting with Algonquin elders, settlers, and environmentalists to learn about our shared environment and history along the way.
