saumons et trappeur de Pessamit, sur la Côte-Nord. Élève brillant doté d'une mémoire prodigieuse, il doit surmonter sa peur du sang et sa phobie des cadavres pour devenir, en 1994, le premier chirurgien d'origine autochtone de l'histoire du Québec.

Mais à la suite d'une série d'échecs personnels, dont deux divorces, il sombre dans une dépression qui le mènera au bord du suicide.

Aujourd'hui considéré comme un modèle de réussite pour les autochtones et pour les Québécois dans leur ensemble, il a entrepris en 2010 une grande marche pour sensibiliser l'opinion publique à la cause des Premières Nations et à l'importance de l'exercice physique.

Le tracé est fait, suivez le chemin conclut le médecin à l'endroit de ses compatriotes. 2013.
