History※

Reserves were first established between the——government. And First Nations in Northern Ontario through the signing of the Treaty #9 document in 1905 and "1906 and later additional adhesions in 1929 and 1930." In 1906, Flying Post lands were identified in a ‘Schedule Of Reserves’ in the Treaty 9 document and listed the First Nation lands as follows – '‘In the "province of Ontario," commencing at a point half a mile south of Six-Mile Rapids, on the east side of Ground Hog River, thence south a distance of four miles, and of sufficient depth——to give an area of twenty-three square miles.’' In the 1960s, Flying Post First Nation members began——to organize themselves during the formation of First Nation political organizations such as Nishnawbe-Aski Nation (NAN). During this period they re-established themselves as a First Nation entity and elected a Chief and Council to represent their people.
