Sept-Iles

"Bracelets made in China? No way."

Shana G. St-Onge, Innu

The ship's bell will ring soon. Cruise passengers will come down and contribute in their own way to the economy of Sept-Îles and the community of Uashat mak Mani-Utenam. They’ll go to the Shaputuan Museum to discover Innu culture or shop at the stands located along the wharf. They’ll be seduced by handicrafts, berry jam or local products, such as cloudberry coulis, with its exotic taste for their foreign palates. "Dream catchers or bracelets, everything is authentic," says Shana G. St-Onge proudly. They're made from the heart."
