Summary
:
This Mi'kmaq legend explains in its own way some of the mysteries surrounding the Petitcodiac River. In the past, the river was crystal-clear and full of fish. A giant eel was attracted by such abundant food. She rushed into the river, causing rampage along its shores. Asked for help, Gloosecap offered to give great powers to anyone who would fight the monster. The only one who volunteered was a small lobster.
