This Anishinabe indian reserve is located close to prince albert, saskatchewan. The first nation was established in 1876 after ogima john smith signed a treaty in which the first nation was created. The size of the Anishinabe indians reserve is 9,687 hectares or 23,937 acres. The population is 1,552, with 560 living on the reserve and the rest off. Since the first nation is surrounded by white communities, many of their citizens move to white cities to look for employment.
