Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Preface 1. This schedule contains lists of Indian Reserves and Settlements in Canada by Provinces and lists of Indian Bands by Regions taken from information filed with the Indian Land Registry as of June 1, 1972. 2. Indian Settlements are shown in the "Reserve" columns of Parts 1 and 2. These are not Indian Reserves within the meaning of the Indian Act and occupation of settlements is not restricted to a particular Band. 3. Part 1 of the schedule lists Indian Reserves and Settlements alphabetically by Provinces. Settlements follow after the alphabetical list of Reserves for each Province. This section also states the names of the Indian Bands for whose use and benefit the Reserves have been set apart, the approximate geographical location and the approximate acreage of each Reserve. 4. Map designations are given in the location description. The N.T.S. abbreviation means the "National Topographical Systems" of maps covering the Reserves and adjacent land. Maps can be obtained by writing to the Map Distribution Office, Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Ottawa, Ontario. When ordering maps the complete N.T.S. designations must be quoted. To assist in locating Reserve location, approximate degrees and minutes latitude and longitude have been given. 5. Acreage includes all lands in which the Band has a recorded interest. Acreages are shown as APPROXIMATE because in most cases they are based on old data which have not yet been verified. Research and surveys to establish accurate acreage are being carried out and the acreage shown may be changed in the future. 6. Land surrendered for sale but not sold as at June 1, 1972 and land surrendered for lease are included in the acreage figures. 7. Part II lists Indian Bands by Region. This section includes all the Reserves set apart for each Band along with the approximate acreage. Land held in common by two or more Bands in which the interests of each Band is undivided is shown as a joint total. Since settlements are not set apart for specific Bands, they are not included in this section. 8. Part III is a National summary by Province, of the number of Indian Bands, Reserves, Settlements and appropriate Reserve acreages. For Reserves which are on both sides of a Provincial boundary the acreage has been broken down and totalled by Province. June 1, 1972.
