About the event

Speaker Series: Gete Miikaan, Gete Anishnaabeg (Old Portages, Old Ojibwe) - David Beaucage Johnson
🗓️ Thursday, July 24th from 6:00-7:30 PM

We imagine that Champlain bushwhacked through a vast wilderness as he “explored”, when the truth is he was never off the beaten track. Join us for an evening of learning about the expansive system of well established portage trails used for trade that covered all of Turtle Island.

This event is part of The Canadian Canoe Museum’s Speaker Series.

🕕 1 hour talk followed by a half hour Q&A.
🍻 Refreshments available!
🎟 $15
