The Anishinabek Nation is one of the oldest Indigenous political affiliations in Ontario, tracing its roots long before European contact to a body called the Confederacy of Three Fires. It now represents 39 First Nations throughout the province of Ontario from Golden Lake in the east, Sarnia in the south, Thunder Bay and Lake Nipigon in northern Ontario.
