Lac des Mille Lacs First Nation

About

The Lac des Mille Lacs First Nation, also known as Nizaatikoong, is a Saulteaux Ojibwe First Nation band. It is a signatory to Treaty #3 under the Shebandowan-Adhesion in 1873. The nation owns two reserves in the Thunder Bay District of Ontario, Lac des Mille Lacs 22A1 on the northeastern shore of Lac des Mille Lacs and Lac des Mille Lacs 22A2 at the junction of the Seine and Firesteel Rivers.

Because of past flooding by various dam projects in the region, the nation does not reside on either territory, but is instead dispersed throughout Northwestern Ontario, elsewhere in Canada, or the United States. As of May 2021, the band had a registered population of 619, with six people living on their own reserve.
