Story

A long, long time ago, the lands of North-Eastern America were flooded by an inland sea. Two beings, Amont and Aval, lived there as brother and sister in absolute peace and harmony. One fateful day, the sea retreated dramatically, separating them. Between Amont—who was confined to the great inland lakes—and Aval—who was relegated at the foot of the ocean, loomed a great river with rapids so fierce it made any attempt of reuniting brother and sister impossible.

Under the warm sun and blue sky in which they could mirror each other, Amont and Aval dreamt incessantly of being reunited. Amont and Aval’s deepest wish would finally come true with the help of brave men who dug the long canals needed to avoid the rapids. This dream would come true in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield where Amont and Aval would thus prosper again.
