M'Chigeeng First Nation
M'Chigeeng First Nation, located on Manitoulin Island in Northern Ontario, is the second largest First Nation on the island and is home to the Anishinabek of the Three Fires Confederacy, which includes the Odawa, Ojibway, and Pottawattomi Nations. The community, formerly known as West Bay, has a proud history dating back to the mid-19th century when many Anishinabek relocated from the north shore region.
The First Nation emphasizes a vision of being a vibrant and progressive Ojibwe-speaking community, committed to the health, self-reliance, and cultural grounding of its members. M'Chigeeng First Nation seeks to uphold mutual respect for all people while remaining deeply connected to their obligations to Mother Earth.
