Cree Idle No More walkers reach Algonquin community - North - CBC News: The Cree youths and their guides left Whapmagoostui, the northernmost Cree community in Quebec, Jan. 16 on “The Journey of Nishiyuu,” which means “The Journey of the People” in Cree, in support of the Idle No More movement.
The Nishiyuu group has since grown from seven original walkers to close to 80 people. They plan to reach Ottawa on March 25.
About 100 people welcomed the walkers in Lac Simon with a feast and a dance.
Now that they are in Algonquin territory, youth from the communities of Pikogan and Lac Simon in the Abitibi region of Quebec are joining in.
