280:; there will be others like it, as the historical native political relationships are vastly different from our modern sense of their governments as in tribal councils and band councils and various nation and association hierarchies, and in many cases there was nothing resembling one of the latter day groupings, as in the Cowichan, where Somena is; there is no such thing as a Cowichan people, which is why I listed them as Cowichan peoples; they all spoke the same dialect of Halkomelem and lived alongside each other, but they were not a chieftaincy-cum-statehood in the way any of the Nuu-chah-nulth and Haida chiefs were; similarly the Sto:lo, who did not have a common political organization until modern times. Modern-day bands are often broken up into unique-band nations (D'Arcy) and small-group nations (In-SHUCK-ch) even though larger groupings of their historical ethnographic - but not really
292:?) which is in the process for recognition, but has no members (someone is trying to organize urban Indians around a revived Indian Reserve on Poplar Island, the old smallpox quarantine.). Anyway, to repeat my original intent here, the BC list needs to be much larger and should probably have its own article, with maybe only major regional/tribal councils listed, with a "misc" listing for the tiny independents, with referrals to a First Nations in BC list, which can cover the details; the show/hide thing available in talk pages would be handy here in terms of drawbar lists of each council. Interestingly btw they can't be grouped solely by ethnography; there's overlap overganizations such as the Carrier-Ulkatcho which include Chilcotin bands, and some Chilcotin and Lillooet bands are co-members of the Shuswap or Thompson or Sto:lo).
318:(which AFAIK is a partnership between the Squamis Nation or another native organization and the company running the bridge and its other attractions (private sector rather than government, although I'd venture government funding is also at play). Toti:lthet or however it's spelled, the old St. Mary's Residential School in Mission, is another example; as also the (temporary?) operation of former CFB Chilliwack by local First Nations educational and social services (I think it's over now and something else has gone down with that property....or not?). Anyway, all these and more province-wide a pretty healthy list in their own right, and obviously of encyclopedic interest. Not sure what to use as a title, or if I'm up to the task time-wise (as also with the list of First Nations govts in BC discussed above).
520:, unrecognized First Nation, or historical Indigenous polity - all of which are also, generally, First Nations governments. This is good, because it limits the scope of what could easily become an endless and unworkable list. Band governments are legally defined by the federal government, there are a finite amount of them (about 620), and enough information for a stub-quality article about any one of them is available from online Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs sources. A move to this more specific title will better describe the content that already exists on the page, and make future improvements to the page more viable.

A full list of First
