Fort Alexander, Manitoba

Located along southeastern shores of huge Lake Winnipeg, the Ojibway Clandeboye Reserve town of Fort Alexander, has a population of 1,929 according to 2016's census. Below are several links to google earth photos of Fort Alexander. During the 18th century many Ojibwa hunters were lured to white trade posts at what is now the Fort Alexander region and at Hudson Bay and James Bay. So addicted to alcohol and drugs were they, they pimped their women to acquire their addictions or alcohol and drugs. Many mixed bloods were born during those times. Ojibwa's who settled near those white trade posts thought nothing of waging war against their own people. That's how addicted to alcohol and drugs they were. Besides causing civil war, they also depleted the wildgame. Many often starved to death because of their stupidity! From further south, Ojibwa Soldiers were sent north to either subdue the traitors or drive them off. Whites named the Ojibwa Traitors Cree Homeguards. Sometime during early 19th century, Ojibwa Soldiers had either subdued those Ojibwa Traitors or drove them far northwest. Today, they are known as the Beaver Tribe. However, whites are trying to fool Ojibwa's by telling them the Beaver Tribe are Cree. In the 18th century, whites at Hudson Bay named them the Beaver Tribe, Cree Home Guards and Keskatchewan. We know they are the Athabascan Beaver Tribe because of that. Alexander Henry wrote that Athabascans from near Great Slave Lake were very willing to travel great distances to reach white trade posts at Hudson Bay where they pimped their women and traded for alcohol and drugs. After 1763, Ojibwa Soldiers had driven the Ojibwa Traitors north of Churchill River then to the Great Slave Lake region. Further south, Ojibwa Soldiers brought the region from Lake Winnipeg and to the west under their control. War intensified after 1800. Idiotic Ojibwa Traitors were only too willing to help whites fight their own people. West of Lake Winnipeg, Ojibwa Traitors were named Assiniboine. As with the Beaver Tribe, they rejected Ojibwa Law and broke away from them. Those Ojibwa Traitors and mixed bloods at the Fort Alexander region, either accepted subjugation or fled northwest. They always kept close to white trade posts. Fort Alexander has 790 dwellings with 524 lived in according to 2016's census. That's indicative of their leaders allowing whites to invade their domain. 2011's census reported that this location had 561 dwellings with 535 lived in. Their average household size is 3.6 persons per housing unit. Nearly all citizens of this community are Ojibwa, excepting around 10. Most (around 500) work for Pine Falls Paper Company. Manitoba Hydro also employs many of Fort Alexander citizens. Around 290 people speak Ojibway at this Ojibway town. That's near 15% of it's population which means it's a dying language at Fort Alexander which is not really a town. Housing units are located on both sides of roads Provincial Trunk Highway and Northshore Road which is on the eastside of Winnipeg River. One location has an appearance of a small town. It's in the photos. Ojibwa's at Fort Alexander name their domain Sagkeeng. It's a locative mean River Mouth Place. Pronunciation is either "Sa-gi-ing or Sa-giing." Word for River Mouth in Ojibwa is 'sa-gi.'
