We can see people on both sides of the Canadian version of the Mississippi River fishing for pickerel, bass and pike. The river was discovered, mapped and named in the early 1600s by Samuel de Champlain.

of the Anishinàbe Algonquin People.

The Snimikobi Algonquin First Nation inhabited the Mississippi watershed for 1,000s years prior to the arrival of Europeans. They are one of the 10 Algonquin First Nation Communities in Eastern Ontario and West Quebec.

In the 1600s French Canadian explorers and missionaries canoed up the Ottawa River to the Mattawa River then west crossing Lake Nipissing, down the French River to Georgian Bay and the Great Lakes. From there they travelled to the Gulf of Mexico and the interior of the North American continent west to the Rocky Mountains.
