The Refuge Madawaska Shelter inc. is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Madawaska Maliseet First Nation. As some of you know, we made a bet on a building and our pledge has not been accepted. We hit the jackpot instead! The Madawaska Shelter inc. received a very generous donation of a construction trailor. The trailor is currently in St-André and will be moved, free of charge, by J. Bernard and Son. We will place the trailor on a location in the Madawaska Maliseet First Nation for the winter. It will then be moved to its permanent location at the aquaculture site when the ground is ready.
