Canoe Journey

is a metaphor for life.

Because there was always a commitment to the future, so will there always be a commitment
to the past. The modern Coeur d'Alene Tribe is the sum of uncounted centuries of untold
generations. In the tribe's own ancient language, it is called Schitsu'umsh, meaning "Those
who were found here" or "The discovered people". In this remains a land abundant in beauty
and resources, a legacy of leadership, and a lineage that continues from the time immemorial.
The Coeur d'Alenes are who they always were and who they will always be.
