Some Curious Algonquin History

Recently, former Algonquin First Nation Chief Kirby J. Whiteduck spoke to the Bromley Historical Society near the very place where, in 1613 Samuel de Champlain, once met the famous one-eyed Algonquin Chief Tessouat. It was there that Champlain, as representative of his 17th Century French Colonial government, first negotiated with the somewhat resistant Algonquin Chief. And yet what happened to that Algonquin First Nation since that famous meeting over three hundred years ago is a story as well known to Chief Whiteduck, as it would seem too little known by the rest of Canada. Still, in this new Canadian era of truth and reconciliation, when the Bromley Historical Society heard what Chief Whiteduck had to say, it promised, at the very least, to be a new beginning. Note: Due to some significant technical challenges, the quality of our audio recording is not consistent throughout so in advance we apologize to Chief Whiteduck and to our listeners.
