                  Kwey ! Kwey! Welcome Our Elders tell us that water is the giver and protector of life;It is also   able to sustain it.
 They say for this offering  we must honor and give   thanks.
 A River represents purity,
 a River and its tributaries are the   veins and arteries of Mother Earth.
 A River has the ability to clean   itself,
 and is always in a state of transition in its early stages.
 The   ability to shape itself ultimately determines its own destiny.
 One River   flowing into another makes the River stronger
 and fosters that Spirit of   Cooperation to overcome all obstacles in its path.
 Together Rivers ultimately   reach their common destinations,
 bringing with them new life, meeting the   food requirements downstream.
 Yet each River is able to maintain its own   destiny and uniqueness.
 Never does a River leave, once it has joined   another.
 It's this peace and harmony that is so attractive and   achievable.
 We, the Madadjiwan Corporation, are that River.
 And we are now   embarking upon a journey with other Rivers upstream and down.
 The Mattawa/North Bay Algonquin First Nation is our Ambassador,
 carving routes for future   generations to follow.
