  • September 2018: As of September 2018, these seven-foot-tall wooden monuments are hand carved and painted in the four colours of the medicine wheel. The first monument was installed near the Chippewa River in the Algoma District. Future versions of the monuments are planned to be constructed from steel to better withstand weather and potential vandalism or theft.[1]
