MISSISSAUGAS OF THE CREDIT FIRST NATION

The Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation is a thriving and vibrant community, bursting with people reaching for their roots as well as the future as they prepare to teach the next 7 generations it’s history and culture. This community has survived many hundred years of change; we fought through near extinction, battled in many wars, suffered a complete loss of culture, undertook a new way of life, faced the trials and tribulations that have come with facing our Canadian government and those now occupying our traditional territory. However, despite every inch of transformation the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation have endured, They continued to adapt and grow into the resilient First Nation community that stands today.

THE INDIGENOUS NETWORK

The Indigenous Network is located on the Treaty Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe Nation, Huron Wendat and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. We also acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis, Inuit and other global Indigenous peoples who now call Peel Region their home. Originally established as the Peel Aboriginal Network (PAN) in 2003, The Indigenous Network had its beginnings through the hard work of a small group of volunteers dedicated to improving the quality of life for Indigenous people in the Region of Peel. https://theindigenousnetwork.com

SIX NATIONS IROQUOIS OF THE GRAND RIVER FIRST NATION

Six Nations (or Six Nations of the Grand River) is the largest First Nations reserve in Canada, with a total of 25,660 members. Some 12,271 are reported living on this reserve. It is the only reserve in North America that has representatives of all six Iroquois nations living together. These nations are the Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, Seneca and Tuscarora. Some Lenape (formerly known as Delaware) also live in the territory. The Six Nations reserve is bordered by the County of Brant, Norfolk County, and Haldimand County, with a subsection reservation, the New Credit Reserve, located within its boundaries. The acreage at present covers some 46,000 acres (190 km2) near the city of Brantford, Ontario. This represents approximately 5% of the original 950,000 acres (3,800 km2) of land granted to the Six Nations by the 1784 Haldimand Treaty.
