The Montreal Lake Cree Nation is a distinct First Nation among the Aboriginal peoples of Canada in that they possess
a unique historical cultural heritage, and as such, form a people with a common political consciousness. We strive to maintain
the social, economic and political bases of the First Nations people represented herein, including their rights to land and
resources, culture, language, self-government and self-determination.
As a member band of the Prince Albert Grand
Council, the Montreal Lake Cree Nation recognizes their inherent and natural rights to First Nation self-determination and
First Nation self-government as bestowed upon them by the Creator.
On February 11th, 1999 the Montreal Lake Cree Nation held a grand opening of its new elementary school and renovation

room, library, gymnasium, home economics, industrial arts, science and administration, staff and health rooms.
