These Ojibwa People are an only Ojibwa People in central-western Saskatchewan, clinging to their Saulteaux Ojibwa identity. Below are links to google maps photos of their community. They are better known as Jackfish Lake Saulteaux Ojibwa's. Other Jackfish Lake Saulteaux Ojibwa's include Big River, Chitek Lake, Moosomin, Pelican Lake, Thunderchild (aka Sunchild) and Witchekan Lake. Saulteaux First Nation is historically known as Battle River and North Saskatchewan River Saulteaux Ojibwa's. Battle River flows from it's entry or mouth at North Saskatchewan River near Battleford, Saskatchewan, to Samson Lake which is Hobbema Reserves east boundary at Alberta. It then flows to Battle Lake at Alberta. Originally, Moosomin and Thunderchild Reserve was located between Battle River and North Saskatchwan River near Battleford. In 1909, Canada was up to no good and forced Ojibwa leaders from Moosomin/Thunderchild Reserve to cede their Reserve illegally. They did so to steal their land which was ideal farmland and also prepare for 100's of Montana Ojibwa's led by chief Rocky Boy, for forced relocations to the Jackfish Lake region. Saulteaux Ojibwa People living at Jackfish Lake followed treaty which created their vast Ojibwa Reserve Canada attempted to fragment during the early 1880's yet chief Big Bear refused to cede Reserve. White settlers at the Fort Battleford region requested of Louis Riel to support them in colonizing the vast Saulteaux Ojibwa Reserve Canadian leaders set aside for chief Big Bear after he, chief Rocky Boy and chief Sitting Bull fled their native Montana during Montana's 1876-1877 Ojibwa War. While Canadian negotiators negotiated with chief Big Bear, Louis Riel commenced his troubles by initiating white settlements at the vast Ojibwa Reserve. That led to 1885's Northwest Rebellion and the execution of Louis Riel for instigating 1885's conflict. Canada reached treaty agreements with Ojibwa leaders including chief Rocky Boy, to set aside several Reserves between Jackfish Lake, Chitek Lake (for Pelican Lake Ojibwa's), Witchekan Lake and Big River and also Ministikwan. Later, Makwa Sahgaiehcan and Waterhen Lake were also set aside for Jackfish Lake Saulteaux Ojibwa's. Historically they're known as descendants of chief Big Bears Saulteaux Ojibwa's. All these Reserves were set aside for Jackfish Lake Saulteaux Ojibwa's and Montana Ojibwa's led by chief Rocky Boy. They are descended from chief Big Bears Saulteaux Ojibwa's and were originally known as Battleford Saulteaux Ojibwa's, as a result of their original Reserve agency being located at Battleford, Saskatchewan. These Saulteaux Ojibwa's led by chief Big Bear, lived from where Saddle Lake Reserve is at Alberta, to James Smith Reserve at Saskatchewan. Chief Big Bears Reserve (aka Battleford Agency Ojibwa Reserve) was very large and originally had North Saskatchewan River as it's southern boundary, where South Saskatchewan Rivers mouth is, west to where Saddle Lake is at Alberta. According to 2021's census, Saulteaux First Nation has an on-Reserve population of 322. A dramatic population decline took place between 2016 and 2021. During 2016's census Saulteaux First Nation had an on-Reserve population of 499. Over 1/3 of the First Nations on-Reserve population left. There could be a movement among Ojibwa's at Saulteaux First Nation to reject their Ojibwa identity. They have 135 dwellings with 130 lived in. Average household size is 2.4 persons per household. In 2016 it was 3.7 person persons per household. A dramatic change took place. In 2016 they had 142 dwellings with 133 lived in. An estimated 3.2% of the population of Saulteaux First Nation is 70 years of age or older. During 2016's census they estimated that 1.0% of the population of Saulteaux First Nation was 70 years of age or older. Be attentive to those expectancy stats! Prophesy has warned you. Around 30 people speak Corrupted Ojibwa Language at Saulteaux First Nation. Lewis and Clark named Cree Language Corrupted Ojibwa Language. In 2016, 150 people spoke Corrupted Ojibwa Language at Saulteaux First Nation. That's 120 people who either died or quit speaking Ojibwa between 2016 and 2021 at Saulteaux First Nation. We know they are Saulteaux Ojibwa's. At adjacent Moosomin, their 2021 population is 715. It decreased by 9 between 2016 and 2021. They have 209 dwellings with 196 lived in. Average household size is 3.6 persons per household. An estimated 2.1% of the population of Moosomin is 70 years of age or older. They don't understand the implications of their actions! You must follow prophesy if you want to survive! Leaders of Saulteaux First Nation and adjacent Moosomin, must agree with all other Ojibwa First Nation leaders at Saskatchewan, to petition Canada for a large Ojibwa Reserve at north Saskatchewan. There are no Cree First Nations at Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec! Below 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 by Samuel Hearne. 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!
