The White Bear First Nations (Cree: ᐚᐱ ᒪᐢᑿ, romanized: wâpi-maskwa,[2] Assiniboine: Matóska oyáde[3]) are a First Nation[4] band government in southeastern Saskatchewan, Canada.
Etymology
The Nation bears the name of its Chief Wahpiimusqua (1815-1900, wâpimaskwa, "white bear"), who signed an adhesion to Treaty 4 in 1875. Despite this, he ultimately settled next to Moose Mountain Provincial Park with his band, which is in the Treaty 2 area.[5]
