The Algonquin Alliance will undertake a ceremonial descending of the headwaters of the Mississippi watershed to Parliament Hill. Many other canoes are expected to join them along the way. The First Nations have taken water from their starting point and plan to pour it onto the steps of Parliament Hill, to send the message that the waters of the Mississippi are close at hand. A proclamation demanding a moratorium on uranium mining will be delivered to the Government of Canada.
