The 2006 Census populations shows that the largest number of self-identified Aboriginal people are First Nations with 91,400 (65 per cent) - the Métis population was 48,115 (34 per cent).
The chart below lists the Entitlement First Nations in Saskatchewan and details of their individual agreements.
An asterisk (*) follows the names of First Nations that have achieved their Shortfall Acres. In Treaty Land Entitlement, "Shortfall" is the difference in the amount of land that a First Nation should have received when its reserve was formed and the amount of land it actually received. In order for Canada to meet its Treaty obligations, the First Nation's Shortfall Acres (land and minerals) must achieve reserve status.
