Nitassinan

"The woods are full of ghosts. We see their hunchbacked shadows, tired from long portages, their legs bowed from days of snowshoeing. The people of the past, smelling strongly of sweat, smoke, and animal fat. Indians, coureurs des bois, fur traders. They were all savages, even if not all were indigenous. And they were at home in this territory that had many names.
The Ilnuat called it "Nitassinan"-- our land--, the first white explorers, "kingdom of Saguenay", the modern administration, "unorganized territories of Lac-Saint-Jean", but for everyone, it is the woods."
Nine destinies, five centuries of history: the story of a land.
