A village was established at the mouth of either Blind River or Mississagi River to commence to drive Italians east of Lake Ontario. They had already driven Italians from the region south of Lake Erie and south of Lake Ontario. By 1700, they had driven Italian invaders east of Lake Ontario. Afterwards, they colonized all of south Ontario. Ojibwa's of Michigan and Ontario are Shawnee Ojibwa's! Translation is Southern Ojibwa's! Ojibwa Word for all, entire, everything and whole is "Mi-si." Word for Mouth of River is "Sagi." River in Ojibway is "Sip-pi." Thus, Misi Sagi. More properly they were known as "All River Mouth People." In Ojibwa Language it's pronounced "Mis-si Sa-geague." The white city of Blind River is 2 or 3 miles southeast of Mississagi. Canada is trying to assimilate Ojibwa People!
