Check out some amazing photos from the FIRST EVER Neemamo Mishkanan canoe trip!

If you are in Moose Factory on August 20, please join us to welcome home the Neemamo Mishkanan paddlers at the Cree Cultural Interpretative Centre!

We will use this page to give daily updates on the Neemamo Mishkanan team as they go!

After all of the preparation, planning, and packing, the Neemamo Mishkanan team has left for their 8-day journey to canoe a traditional Moose Cree travel route!

Youth participants of Neemamo Mishkanan completed first aid and canoe training! The week was filled with learning, laughter, and bonding.

This year on the Lower Mattagami River, our field team had some beautiful sunny days alternating with some downpours, and temperatures ranging from 2°C to 25°C!

The Neemamo Mishkanan “We Canoe Together” program officially launched this weekend, with an opening weekend of introductions, workshops, and cultural events!

Learn all about our new research paper describing the movement and behaviour of namew in the free-flowing North French River!

Our team spent a few days on the beautiful North French River downloading our underwater receivers that track tagged namew.

Our team has started to prepare for another busy season of field work and youth programming by brushing up on our safety skills!

The deadline to apply for a fully funded canoe trip for Moose Cree Youth has been extended to February 29! Learn more and apply today!

Check our page in early January if you are a youth interested in taking part of a youth canoe trip in the Moose Cree Homeland this upcoming summer!

With winter holidays coming up, we thought that it would be fun to introduce some members of our team, and share some of the things that we like to do for fun in the winter!

Tagged namew give us an under-the-ice window into their life. And one of the really interesting things that we have learned is that namew are active all year round, even under the thick layers of ice and snow.

Hear from Moose Cree Youth Ocean Skye Phillips and her experiences since 2019 with the Learning from Lake Sturgeon youth program!

We are very excited to announce a new project that we’ve been working on — we created a booklet about the Learning from Lake Sturgeon program, and it shares all of the results of what we have learned so far!

We had a great time at GOOP, and our hearts and minds are full after meeting so many people who share our love of namew, and our passion for the rivers of the Moose Cree Homeland.

We will be at the Moose Cree Gathering of our People from August 1-5! Come and check out our booth and learn more about our program, and pick up some swag.
