Walk to Ottawa towards the path of the 8th Fire
Quebec and Canada have profited for many years from the resources of Anishnabe Territory. Almost half of the old growth trees have now been cleared from what was known as Parc de la Verendrye, a park which provided a sanctuary for the animals, a place where our Anishnabe culture thrives, and our ever green trees provides clean air to the heartland of Turtle Island.
With many life threatening matters coming to the Anishnabe Ottawa River Watershed such as more expected Deforestation, Massive Mining in the La Verendrye Park, with also to mention the Kipawa Mining, the Pipelines crossing the lower Anishnabe Territory which will threatened the clean waters of the entire watershed causing contaminating and destruction upon the existence of the animals, all living plants, trees and threatening all our future generations as shown of the colors of MAN the medicine wheel teaches.
Our Anishnabe Nation that will support or take part of the Walk will be standing as one to say No to Deforestation, No to Mining, No Pipelines, No to Exploitation, No to Conquer and Divide, No to Fear & Judgement and No to Poverty or Slavery...

The Prophecy of the 8th Fire
They will come to a fork in the road. One road will lead to Materialism and Destruction.....for almost all living creatures....The other road will lead to a Spiritual Way upon which the Native People will be standing...This path will lead to the lighting of the 8th fire, a period of eternal peace, harmony and a "New Earth" where the destruction of the past will be healed
--------------------------------------------------
We are seeking walkers from our Anishnabe Nation to carry a birch bark canoe with the word "Tibenindizowin" written on it to Victoria Island in Ottawa. The canoe represents all the teachings carried through our ancestors and all the traditional people of Turtle Island which will signify the renewal of the “Two Row Wampum” treaty and “1764 Treaty of Niagara Covenant Chain”. The canoe is expected to bring a lot of media attention.
Attached to the Birch Bark Canoe, we will have all 5 of Anishnabe Wampum made banners in which our elders will speak for, with our new Peace Belt banner also to be shared of its reason of its Creation.
We will also need carriers for a wooden carved item and an art crafted dream catcher-like symbol that will represent our Anishnabe people's true sovereignty and what has constituted our people before colonization.
A carrier is also needed walk our newly made Anishnabe Nation Flag.
Sacred Items that needs to be carried
*Birch Bark Canoe
*Wood Carving and Symbol of our Anishnabe Consitution

“The Imagine Peace Flame” will be initiated during the beginning of the “Walk of the 8th Fire-Tibenindizowin” in La Verendrye Park and carried toEcology Ottawa (275km) to declare our Tibenindizowin, our freedom, our independance..
