	The MISSINAIBI RIVER "Great Canadian Rivers"
		On the shore of Lake Superior, at the mouth of the Michipicoten River, furs, supplies and trade goods were transferred between the 4-tonne "Montreal canoes" and the canots du nord.
		For at least 2,000 years, Cree and Ojibwa peoples had inhabited the Missinaibi valley, using the river and its link to Lake Superior to trade moose hides and raw copper for the corn and tobacco of agricultural tribes far to the south.
		(To the south-east, all rivers drain to Lake Superior; to the north-east, the water drops towards James Bay.) River veterans are unimpressed: the route is not a dramatic pinnacle of rock, but simply a low and swampy woodland trail.

		Many years ago the savage Iroquois ventured up the Sturgeon river to an Ojibway camp where the Iroquois massacred most of the Ojibway braves, saving only a handful to act as guides to lead them further North to find new wealth in furs.
		They headed up the Sturgeon river through the Temagami to the Abitibi River.
		There, the Ojibway braves knew that they must settle their score with the Iroquois, so they convinced the Iroquois that there was a rich Indian settlement up the river and that if they continued to paddle during the night while the Iroquois were sleeping, then they could surprise the camp in the early morning.
