Description:

Beginning in the year 1600 this docudrama presents the viewer with a history of the Wolastoqewiyik (also known as the Maliseet of Vigor) people. It also provides a history of the Wolastoq River (also known as the St. John River, which runs from New Brunswick to Quebec). It is narrated from the perspective of a wolf and depicts re-enactments of the challenges that the Maliseet people have endured from the 1600's up until the time of production in 2006. This program foregrounds the damaging effects of settler colonialism in addition to the resistance, strength and resilience of the Maliseet people. <48mn>
