Siksika First Nation

Although Algonquian is spoken at Siksika First Nation, it may be a Reserve that was set aside for the Beaver Tribe. The Beaver Tribe lived far north of the Calgary region. Up to the 1830's trading at Fort Edmonton was extremely dangerous for these Ojibwa Traitors who were very addicted to alcohol and drugs whites supplied to them. To obtain their alcohol and drugs they'd pimp their women and kill off wild game. So problematic were they, in the late 18th century Ojibwa Soldiers drove them northwest to northwest Alberta, north British Columbia and the Northwest Territories. Not content with these Ojibwa Traitors, they forced them to relocate to central British Columbia where they're known as the Carrier Tribe. After the revolver was invented in the 1830's, did the Beaver Tribe feel more at ease at the Fort Edmonton region. However, west of the Beaver Tribe at Fort Edmonton were the Sekani (the Carrier Tribe) who we'll identify as the Assiniboine and Cree. During the late 1860's or possibly 1870, many from the Carrier Tribe were sent east to the Galgary region from central British Columbia where they established a military camp. White Soldiers followed them to the military camp and eventually established Fort Calgary. In October 1870, soldiers from the Carrier Tribe attacked an Ojibwa village where Lethbridge, Alberta is now. They were defeated and driven back to the Calgary region. Somehow Algonquian is spoken at Siksika Reserve. However, it's close proximity to Calgary and T'suu Tina Reserve and Stoney Reserve are indicators that they are from the Beaver Tribe (Carrier Tribe of British Columbia) and settled at Sik'sika Reserve. From the Calgary region they slipped down to the east side of the Cypress Hills. From there, Little Bear led 100's to extreme north Montana where Fort Assiniboine Indian Reservation was set aside for them without consulting leaders of the Blackfeet Ojibwa Reservation. According to 2021's census, population of Siksika First Nation is 3,576. It's population increased by 97 between 2016 and 2021. There are 1,210 housing units with 1,051 lived in. Some of the housing units are boarded up until new tenants buy or rent them. Average household size is 3.4 persons per household. Around 405 people speak Corrupted Ojibwa at Siksika Reserve. Ojibwa Language became corrupted after white leaders forced Ojibwa children to attend boading schools! You'd possibly have to go to the Arctic Ocean to search for the correct Ojibwa Language which is a musical language. Ojibwa Soldiers forced Inuit People of the Arctic Region to also speak Ojibwa Language! Siksika is probably derived from Sekani! In 1909 or 1910 or both years, the southern portion of Siksika Reserve was ceded to chief Rocky Boys Montana Ojibwa Subjects. However, Canada used trickery or lied to Siksika Reserve leaders and sent chief Rocky Boys Montana Ojibwa Subjects to that portion of Siksika Reserve not ceded. Canada broke an agreement. Anywhere from 500 to 1,000 Montana Ojibwa's settled at Siksika Reserve!

Land Surrender

A land surrender in 1910 sent many Montana Ojibwa's to Siksika Reserve. It was part of the forced relocations chief Rocky Boys Montana Ojibwa Subjects dealt with in 1909 and 1910. As a result of Seven Fires Prophesy, Montana had a very large Ojibwa population. Most lived at north central Montana and particularly the Great Falls region. American leaders did not want a large Ojibwa population at Montana and forced large numbers of Montana Ojibwa's to relocate elsewhere. Siksika Reserve has a larger population because of 1910's land surrender which was intended for chief Rocky Boys Montana Ojibwa Subjects. Blood Reserve does not have a larger population than Siksika Reserve! Instead of giving the south portion of Siksika Reserve (115,000 acres) to chief Rocky Boys Montana Ojibwa Subjects, white leaders betrayed them and gave the land to white settlers. The 1910 land surrender is an indicator that Siksika Reserve is populated mostly by Ojibwa's. A smaller population from the Beaver Tribe (Carrier Tribe) lives there. Canada is trying to assimilate the natives of Siksika First Nation Reserve. Gleichen and Cluny are border towns. Many Siksika Reserve natives are attracted to the border towns for employment opportunities. As many as 10 or more communities are at Siksika Reserve. Siksika Reserve leaders must take action. If they don't they have no future! Cree (aka Beaver and Keskatchewan) 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."
