| Historical
Notes The Salteaux Ojibway people (ancestors of Seine River First Nation people) inhabited the Ontario portion of the area subsequently covered by the Northwest Angle Treaty of 1873 - Treaty No. 3. Their economy was based on fishing, hunting, gathering, trapping, the harvesting of wild rice and some horticulture, until the late 18th century when they became involved in the fur trade with the Hudson's Bay Company. The Band surrendered some of its reserve land ain 1888, and the reserve was later confirmed by the Ontario government in 1915. |
