Onion Lake Cree Nation is a Plains Cree First Nations band straddling the Alberta-Saskatchewan provincial border, making it Canada's only border Cree Nation. Located approximately 50 km north of Lloydminster, our community is home to 4,003 members, with 2,408 living on our 57,737.5 hectares of reserve land.
Our nation spans 585.711 square kilometres across two provinces, with the Makaoo 120 reserve in both Alberta and Saskatchewan, and the Seekaskootch 119 reserve wholly within Saskatchewan. These reserves were combined to form Onion Lake in 1914.
As a Nehiyaw (Cree) community, we are committed to preserving our language, culture, and traditions while embracing modern opportunities. Our community features comprehensive health services, education from immersion to high school, and various economic enterprises.
We are proud of our self-determination in education, with our own school system including Cree immersion programs, and our comprehensive health services including our own clinic, pharmacy, and emergency medical services.
