Montreal Lake First Nation


Located north of Montreal Lake community by 40.3 kilometers or 25.0 miles is Weyakwin. It is a part of Montreal Lake First Nation. Below are links to google earth photos of the Ojibwa village of Weyakwin which is located at north central Saskatchewan. The total population of Montreal Lake First Nation is 1,438 according to 2021's census. There are 398 dwellings with 362 lived in. Average household size is 4.0 persons per household. An estimated 2.5% of the population of Montreal Lake First Nation is 70 years of age or older. Around 190 people speak Corrupted Ojibwa Language at Montreal Lake First Nation. Lewis and Clark named Cree Language Corrupted Ojibwa Language. Montreal Lake First Nation History along with James Smith, Lac la Ronge, Muskoday, Peter Ballantyne and Pukatawagan also, can trace their origins to St. Peters Ojibwa Reserve and Grand Rapids Saulteaux Ojibwa's of the Grand Rapids, Manitoba region where they lived before expanding west to the north central part of Saskatchewan. It's 441 kilometers or 274 miles from Grand Rapids to Montreal Lake. A distance Ojibwa Folks had no problems with. Gathering their belongings they placed them in their canoes then made for the Montreal Lake Region using Saskatchewan River. If they only had horses or walked it would have been a longer journey. However, paddling their canoes up Saskatchewan River was mode of travel and they reached their destinations in the matter of a few days. Once they reached the confluence of North Saskatchewan River and Saskatchewan River, they made for the woodlands to the north and also to the south. Montreal Lake First Nation including Weyakwin, is a Misipawistik Ojibwa Reserve community. Weyakwin community has a population of 100 according to 2021's census. Weyakwin has 36 dwellings with 30 lived in. Average household size is 3.3 persons per household which is normal for Ojibwa communities. Large Lake Montreal is 3.2 miles or 5.2 kilometers east of Weyakwin. Only 10 people living at Weyakwin speaks Ojibwa. That be Corrupted Ojibwa Language. Weyakwin Ojibwa village is surrounded by a lush forest. Most people living there don't want to leave their community. Leaders of Montreal Lake First Nation must agree with all other Ojibwa First Nation leaders at Saskatchewan, to petition Canada to create a vast Ojibwa Reserve at Saskatchewan. Cree People are really the Athabascan Beaver Tribe. There are no Cree First Nations at Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec! Below the photos are excerpts from very old books that will help educate you! Look for the 18th century maps. Instead of south to north they are from southeast to northwest. Churchill River is the north boundary. A few Assiniboine and Cree lived west of Lake Winnipeg but were driven to the northwest by 1800 by Ojibwa Soldiers. Churchill River was a boundary used in the 18th century. From Churchill, Manitoba to South Indian Lake, Manitoba to Sandy Bay, Saskatchewan to Buffalo Narrows, Saskatchewan where the source of Churchill River is, this river flows for 1,000 miles. It's source is Churchill Lake, Saskatchewan. All land north of Churchill River is Chipewyan land. Chipewyan is the correct pronunciation of O Chib-bwan or Chib-bwan which means "The Originals and Originals in Ojibwa Language." Remember that white leaders are suppose to prove to Native Americans that whites are the brothers and sisters of Native Americans!

Look for the mountain peak shape on the map. That's where Churchill is located. Churchill River is almost adjacent to Churchill Town. Part London of Hudson Bay is written above the mountain shaped peak. You can tell it's been violated! It should read "Part of Hudson Bay." Andrew Graham drew the map in 1774. In 1991, another source "Ruggles," either copied the 1774 map of Andrew Graham or changed it. Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba (Mantouabau) look awkward!. That's because the map is from southeast to northwest. Nekawawuck Indian Country represents Northern Ojibwa Territory. It's definition is not known. However, the "ne" represents point in Ojibwa Language so it refers to a place and people. Discovering what "ka-wa-wuck" means won't be easy! Word for "Freezing" in Ojibwa Language is either "Mash-ka-wad-ji-win or Ga-wad-ji-win." The 'd' is not pronounced. It's used to let learners know that the following 'j' is pronounced like judge, just, ect. Not like 'zhi.' Ne Ka-wa-wuck probably means "Point Freeze People." Pronunciation is "Nay Ga-wa-wug." An excellent description of the Churchill, Manitoba region! Of course, you've noticed the point where Churchill is! Keskachewan (Italians and the Beaver Tribe or Cree) Territory extends to almost Nunavut. Dogrib Territory (Ateemouspecky) Territory is located at southwest Nunavut.


This is a satellite image of the same region from google earth. It's from a southeast to northwest direction. It fits in well with the 1774 Andrew Graham Map. Lake Winnipeg looks almost similar to how it's depicted on the 1774 Andrew Graham Map.


What did they mean by "Keskachewans Resort Prior To European Settlements?" Were they indicating the Keskachewans resorted to migrate west. If they did resort to a west migration, Graham was writing about the establishment of Cumberland House at Saskatchewan in 1774. That would confirm the Keskachewans were Europeans with some of the Beaver Tribe (the Assiniboine and Cree) who sneaked their way to what is now the Cumberland House Region of Saskatchewan in 1774. Italians had already reached that area decades earlier! That's why Graham was familiar with that region! If Graham was referring to Italians reaching Manitoba and Saskatchewan in the 1730's and early 1750's that is! Fort de la Corne was built in 1753. It was located east of what is now Prince Albert, Saskatchewan almost adjacent to the east border of James Smith Reserve. Fort La Jonquiere was built in 1751 and was located near what is now Nipawin, Saskatchewan. Italians had established forts at south Manitoba in the 1730's. Using alcohol and drugs they lured in idiotic Ojibwa's (the Beaver Tribe or Assiniboine and Cree) who pitched their camps near the three Italian Forts built at south Manitoba. After Ojibwa Soldiers drove the Italians out during 1750-1763's War, those idiotic Ojibwa's relocated to European Forts adjacent to Hudson Bay. If Keskachewans do represent Europeans it means Northern Ojibwa Territory extends as far north as the Arctic Ocean! Graham wrote "NORTHERN KESKACHEWAN - BEAVER INDIANS." Cursive writing on the maps is very difficult to decipher. Graham was certainly referring to Europeans and idiotic Ojibwa's (the Assiniboine and Cree) as being the KESKACHEWANS AND BEAVER INDIANS. SOUTHERN KESKACHEWANS REPRESENT EUROPEANS OR ITALIAN'S. Evidently Italians continued to live at south Manitoba in the late 18th century. Though Graham wrote Assiniboine as Asenepoets we know who they are. Asenepoets is pronounced 'Ah-sin-ni-poats.' Read the following carefully. At Island Lake, Manitoba, Ojibwa leaders of Garden Hill, St. Theresa Point, Wasagamack and Red Sucker Lake are so stupid they don't know what "Oji" means. It's a combined word meaning "The originals." The "O" means 'the' in Ojibwa Language. Similar in sound to the Ojibwa word for 'that' which is "aw." It's pronounced "ow." It ryhmes with 'cow.' Oji is from "O Tchi Bwa." Word for before as in original in Ojibwa Language is "Tchi Bwa." It's pronounced "Tchib Bwa." Some Ojibwa Language Dialects pronounce it "Ji Bwa or Jib Bwa." They're scared and looking for excuses!
