Wabigoon River
The Wabigoon River is a river in Kenora District in northwestern Ontario, Canada. It flows from Raleigh Lake past Dryden, Ontario on Wabigoon Lake to join the English River. The name "Wabigoon" comes from the Ojibwe ''waabigon'', "marigold", or ''waabi-miigwan'', "white feather".〔(Native Toponomy and History in Northern Ontario ), Retrieved 2007-03-18 〕〔(Freelang Ojibwe Dictionary )〕
