Lac Seul First Nation

Located approximately 40 to 60 kilometers from Sioux Lookout, Lac Seul First Nation is home to nearly 1,000 members across three communities: Kejick Bay, Whitefish Bay, and Frenchman’s Head.

History

Lac Seul First Nation is rooted in Anishinaabe culture, with Ojibway as the mother tongue, though English is also widely spoken. The community is engaged, resilient, and actively involved in economic development and long-term planning.

With over 140 full-time staff and seasonal workers, Lac Seul’s workforce supports a range of community services and infrastructure. Each of the three communities has its own school, Waninitawangaang Memorial School, Morris Thomas Memorial School, and Obishikokang Elementary School, demonstrating the Nation’s commitment to accessible education close to home.

Community life is supported by recreation spaces including an arena, community hall, gymnasium, beaches, and Pow Wow grounds. Recent infrastructure improvements include completed upgrades to water treatment plants in Kejick Bay and Whitefish Bay, new housing lots, road development, and a heavy equipment garage operated by Public Works.

Lac Seul First Nation continues to move forward, guided by its values, language, and the strength of its people.
